  • Nope

    My Uncle died from an OD on it.

    He was in and out of rehab and told me his life story once. He said he tried it once, and for 3 days after that he was craving for it, so he said "one more time"...that one more time turned into a life addiction and he purposely OD'd on it to kill himself

  • My best friend is addicted to heroin. She has been in and out of jail because of choices she made to get more of it. She actually right now is in the throws of a habit. Heroin is ruining her life.
    I figure there are many people who have tried it only once, but the alternative is too risky.
    Stop following me, I do not know where I am going.

    not everyone that does heroin dies or completely fucks up their life forever. many people lead productive lives while doing it. and not everyone that does it is addicted to it.


    and i can back this up.

    my younger brother did it once...i think just to add to the list of drugs done throughout his life...

    he smokes a lot of weed and sticks with the oxycontin instead of the heroin...despite the fact that is more expensive than heroin.


    Esther's here and she's sick?

    hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

    I have always wondered about the stuff as well. I have had 2 people who I at one point was very close to die from either using or complications from addiction and I have always wondered what the big fascination is. I was no longer close with them at the time of their deaths but these were people in their mid to late 30's. Not really an age of experimentation anymore imo. I have always been a recreational drug user, never really got 'hooked' on anything but this is one I've never ventured. Unless you count 'X' which supposedly has heroin in it. Guess I will just continue to wonder... Just don't understand how a person can completely ruin their life and the lives of people around them for a drug. :confused:

    Yes. I did back in the 60's when I tried everything. Not good. :)

  • my ex did heroin (smoked not injected) and claimed he could handle not doing heroin for periods of time, though i think it was more out of a lack of choice than willpower.

    He would lose a weekend doing it, then be back at work on the Monday.

    So i have seen a functional heroin user, but at the same time, all he ever thought about was H and how to get it, which is why me and his previous girlfriend left him.

    I really dont think its worth doing heroin, even once, purely because any drug is a gamble with your body and mind. We all know that the majority of people on heroin wish they'd never heard of it because of what happened to their lives once they took the drug. And if they dont feel that way, those close to them do.

    not worth it? hmm i have to think about this. earlier this year i was in the position of being offered heroin by someone i trust with my life. i'd done it before(many years ago)... so it wasnt that much of a big deal. anyway for reasons that will remain my own i chose not to. and the person didn't ask me again. which i know was my saving grace... cause had i been asked a second time i would not have hesitated. since then ive thought about it constantly and chide myself in my quietest moments for the decision i made. what this says about me i dont know.

  • well, maybe you want to try it. at the time i trusted my boyfriend with my life, but you can't trust heroin.

    admittedly i was tempted to try it, but i just thought about all the negatives and what it could do to my life as opposed to the high.

    i alaways said if i got a terminal disease i would

    theres no maybe about it. ive done it before and given the chance, i will do it again. for me there are no negatives. not now. anyway since then circumstances have changed, tis no longer about me and the chance has passed.

    My oldest friend takes heroin, or rather he does when he can get it. He's been clean for 2 months through necessity, not choice. Weird thing is, right now I'm not overly concerned for him. I keep an eye on him but the guy is by no means a waster. He has been working through his gap year, has just received an unconditional offer for his second choice university and an offer to his first choice and seems entirely in control of himself. For now. I fear that he won't always be the exception to the "heroin fucks everyone who takes it" rule, even if he is now. I've known the guy for 11 years so I'm not going to judge him but I do sometimes wonder if it is going to end up the way you'd expect it to.

    you would think so... but I never heard of it...

    I've sampled just about every drug known to man and more than once. Heroin and meth included. However, the only drugs I ever kept going back to were booze and weed. Lots of people have tried heroin and not become addicted. I'm not recomending heroin for anyone...

    I have snorted and smoked, but never injected. I seriously doubt that anyone can be a casual user. It was recreational for me, but I stopped the minute I felt like a needed it. This was 10 plus years ago.

    I think once you inject, you are done. Has anyone read the Heroin Diaries by Nikki Six? Good book, great insight.

    Is it possible? Can you just stop after one time? This is just out of pure curiosity...

    Call me old and cautious, but a very good friend of mine when I was young told me that it's best just to avoid it all together because some people DO get caught by it after just once.

    Maybe not everybody gets caught, but what if you are one of the few that can't do it just once? Is it worth the trouble it'd cause?

    all I can say is, if you're ever going to try it just for the one off experience, for chrissakes snort it. Stay the fuck away from needles. Coming up slowly removes the instant euphoria that people get so hopelessly dependant on.

    hey there old and cautious ;)...i'm right there with ya. :)



    in my younger years i did many different kinds of drugs, and enjoyed many often.....but i have NEVER had the desire to try heroin. some things just don't seem worth the risk? i definitely put heroin in that category. FAR too many lives lost/ruined by it. sure, the same can be said for many things....but heroin it seems a LOT more likely. nowadays, being old and cautious :p....i have NO desire to try any *new* drugs, at ALL. basically, give me alcohol......and occasionally some MJ. i think the older you get, you value what an absolute GIFT every day is, and i want as many of em as i can enjoy. :)

    i just LOVE being alive. so heroin....even once......no thanks.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...
