Don't know if its a troll, but the effect on us here is the same - a reminder that behind every avatar is a live human being  :)

You won't be the only 12 stepper here, either.

Man, you are a dip**** for blowing through all that cash.  You should have blown through it buying DVDs and pinball machines and other stupid **** like me.  Tardling.  Money comes and goes tho' and certainly ain't everything, so fo'getaboutit.  Don't continue to be a dip****.  You took the first step, which is good, now get your bellybutton to a rehab center.  Surely your socialist government will cover that under your national health care ... they'll probably confine you to an igloo and make you eat whale blubber or something, but hell you canucks do that anyhow.  Now get sober, and don't get lame in the process like Aerosmith.  I wanna see more psychadellic uterus map art in the future!  What the hell even if you do get lame it's better than dead...I hear being dead kinda sucks.

Heroin addict have about the lowest recovery rates..  to be drunk every day for seven years would indicate that you are an addict in any case.    good luck.    

AA is what you need... all the rehab you go to will simply dry yu out (not a bad thing) and then send you to AA.... if you don't get AA you probly won't make it.   That is just the way it is.   not impossible without AA but odds are really against you.  

I have 15 years now... heroin was not a factor because I used other drugs to get off it.    As was mentioned tho... heroin users romance the drug more than any other type of user.   Just talking about it sometimes causes them to go out and relapse... hence, the need for some type of program.

Tough road for most folks.... was for me.   Like I said, good luck.

Sobriety is a good thing. I discovered it about 13 years ago. Good luck to you.

PS. Getting help is a good thing.

Great job Rip, lets have a political debate in this personal problem. Really saw a chance to score a point here I guess. WTG! I don't recall legalize Heroin being part of the debate, beyond decriminalize (So nash Doesn't detox in prison) and get treatment for those who need it.

Charon,
My point being...unless you want to kill your friends, don't even considering legalization.  Probably not the thread to bring it up in, but just a reminder that its a rediculous idea when I read posts like this.  I wish Nash all the luck in the world(as I previously mentioned in my first post)

The legality is irrelevant. Quite obviously, the fact that heroin is a controlled substance matters little or not at all.

Nash, you're one of the brightest guys here. I hope you're bright enough to seek help with your addiction- it won't mean you're weak, it'll mean you're strong enough to seek the help you need.

Man, I'm always amazed at this- Life is so fleeting and short, and so full of new discoveries and fun things to do, why spend part of it zonked out on dope?

Get help Nash and come back to the world of the living. I know the grip drugs can have on a person, unfortunately, and I know you need AA to kick this crap.

Best of Luck and God Bless ya Nash!
