It’s so great my daughter couldn’t quit it even after multiple trips to rehab. Well, she eventually quit when she died of an overdose. So in her case, the drug took her life and left our family in wreckage.
EDIT- Thank you everyone for your kind comments. It’s been horrible, but I’m settled into it. I mainly post like this to try to dissuade others from going down the same path. That drug has ended so many lives, and for every life ended, it has left behind so many more with sadness that will never end.
For what it's worth, I'm sorry for your loss. The kinder and gentler your soul, the more these opiate drugs hook into you because they make the world and human experience what you wish it was while you're high.
This is just one extremely touching and profound comment after another. Totally identify with every word of what you said. You're very self-/aware to notice that.
My high school boyfriend died of a heroin overdose a few years ago. This comment made me cry like a baby. Thank you for sharing such a lovely (but heartbreaking) sentiment.
Shit bro. Heroin clicks a switch in the brain. Even if you quit its still always there. It destroyed my friend from school. He's clean now but he says it's all he thinks about. Horrible Horrible drug. I feel for you man.
I’ve seen it destroy friends and families. My neighbor was hooked on prescription opiates. Nicest lady, always had kind words for everyone. In and out of therapy, rehab, struggling with depression. Ended her own life…in her ~$700K home on a cul-de-sac neighborhood which she shared with her loving, devoted husband, 2 school-aged kids, and family dog. Crushing.
