the majority of people in this support group are people who have never touched heroin in their lives. i'm curious to see what our loved addicts would do if they knew that we have taken a step to get advice and help from a support group, just because of them...

it is so sad to see so many people going through this and the addicts dont even realize the people they are hurting. it hurts to know that there is something out there more important to HIM than i am, or anything else.


im about to say eff it and just go snort some h. just so i can say "haha, now you get to know how i feel about someone you love killing themselves"

i am sooo tired of it. everyone in the world has a problem with heroin it seems like...its just not fair.

" like you i was watching my brother destroy his life by using heroin and not knowing why myself

we talked alot (which helped)

he told me that when he was off heroin it was as if life slowed down (too much time to sit and think)

we tried many different attempts to get him "clean" and these all failed until oneday he said ive had enough
and wanted to be "clean"

it took time and supportbut he eventually got there and we were so proud of him

they dont realise they are hurting people as the heroin takes over the whole body both physically and mentally

i am sure with your support and love they will get there just hang on in there "

" I just joined this group because I feel the same way. I've never touched heroin, but I feel like myself and my children have been. My husband can't even put his socks in the laundry basket, let alone log on to a website support group.

I just found out that my husband has relapsed and I am at the "bitter angry" stage today. "

" I have never touched the drug before...my bf is an addict and sober at the moment..he is locked up...by at my low point I wondered why it was so special to them...how could it be better then me or our family? I thought about using then I laughed at myself for even considering. My bf has never laid a finger on me, but damn he would have been pissed if I did it. However, in the beginning of our relationship I thought as long as I loved him everything will be fine...then REALITY hit me in the face like a brick.

Then a year ago it hit again...when I found out I was hiv poz. My bf said he never used needles....I believed it and now....I am sick... "

" If you don't think that the addicts don't realize they are hurting people, you are very mistaken. Of course we do, and we have to deal with that eventually. And if your addict doesnt seem like he/she knows, trust me, they do. "

" and no the addicted is not trying to hurt you.A heroin addict is suffering from a physical addiction and is trying to keep them self from going thru withdrawl and will do whatever it takes to stay well.you just happen to be there.Again I suggest seeking help for yourself and often the best thing you can do is leave.
