How to stop smoking heroin
There is still time to stop smoking heroin today!
Let’s take a look at what it will take to quit smoking heroin. I think that quitting any type of drug use you can basically use the same strategy with a little variation here and there.
The first thing one has to do is admit defeat this means a total and complete surrender that you have lost the battle the drugs have won and you are sick and tired of waking up just to get up and go try to hustle one more bag. If you are sick and tired of being sick and tired and if you are ready to stop heroin smoking continue reading
Even though I have never personally tried smoking heroin I know a lot about heroin addiction being I shot heroin for more than 30 and it took a lot of treatment until I got clean and free from my addiction to heroin. It does not have to take you or anyone that long to stop using heroin matter of fact you can do it today all you have to do is take action and follow these simple suggestions.
I am a firm believer it just takes what it takes for us to wake up and admit defeat once this is done recovery is then possible. Lets think of it like we are going to learn a new way of life and we can start this new life in heroin treatment.
Heroin addiction rehab
In heroin addiction rehab you can be medically detoxed for heroin addiction this has to be the most comfortable way of all to go thorough heroin withdrawal. Take my word for it I know all about it. Once finished with your detox it is time to go to residential treatment here the goal is to give you enough information so that you do not have to use again but this is not enough if you never want to have to go through heroin withdrawal from smoking this deadly drug.
When one leaves rehab the real work begins. If you want to get clean then you will have to make up your mind that you are going to do something different and you can start by having no contact with your old using buddies and start looking for drug rehab clinics London.
Next I would suggest a 12 step program like NA. OK for this I would strongly suggest you do 90 meetings in 90 days. This may sound like a lot if you think you can’t do that try just going to a meeting a day for 90 days. It works I basically lost the desire to use heroin by attending meetings and made a lot of friends who do not use either. If you stick with this plan you can not help but to succeed to beat smoking heroin chasing the dragon.
Chasing the dragon
This is a term that came about in China long ago; they used the phrase to refer to the smoking of opium and morphine. Today it is popular among our youth. It means to place the heroin on a piece of foil and then apply heat when this is done the heroin moves and the addict tries to keep it from congealing. Therefore they are chasing the dragon.
Black tar heroin
Black tar heroin for the most part is refined and comes from Mexico. It is one of the most sought after forms of heroin in the western United States. Black tar is the most common street name for the drug but it has many names; for example, Black tar, chiva, pigment.

Erowid
Erowid is a popular site to find our about a lot of drugs one may be interested in. However there may not be a lot of information on how to stop using them but it will tell the reader all about how to use the drugs.
Injecting heroin or aka shooting heroin
This refers to liquefying the heroin with water and drawing it up in a syringe and then black tar heroin in ones arm. I started out snorting heron over 30 years ago and it did not do the trick for me so I quickly switched to shooting heroin. That was the beginning of a down hill slide. However I am clean today and have been for quite some time now.
If you are struggling with addiction I am here to tell you that you can stop using heroin or whatever drug you are having a problem with but it requires action and no one can do it for you. So just hold on your in for a ride but it does get better if you do not pick up that much I can tell you for sure. So if you have relapsed pick your self up and dust yourself off and start over aging I can not even begin to tell you how many times I had to do this before I was able to put any sort of substantial clean time together.
Snorting heroin
In case you are not familiar with this term snorting heroin means to inhale the powder through ones nostrils. It is one of the most popular forms of using heroin these days. Snorting heroin releases the drug into the system rather fast but not as fast as injecting. In my experience I have seen a lot of folks start out using heroin this way only to end up shooting heroin in the end.
Back in the day before smoking heroin became so popular many people have used heroin was a method called snorting heroin. This means to inhale the powder through ones nostrils. It is one of the most popular forms of using heroin these days. Snorting heroin releases the drug into the system rather fast but not as fast as injecting. In my experience I have seen a lot of folks start out using heroin this way only to end up shooting heroin in the end.
In my case I snorted heroin the first time and it made me really sick. That is your body rejecting the heroin it has nothing to do with how pure it is. Anyway after that first snort I did not do heroin again for a couple of years but I was using a lot of dilaudid.
The next time I was reintroduced to heroin by and old dope fiend buddy of mine he was shooting it and told me to give it a try big mistake. I did not get hooked right off the bat but I did like it and yes it made me sick again. I think every time I shot dope for like a year I puked. Getting sick from heroin is nothing like getting sick from drinking alcohol where you feel miserable.
Like I said I was using a lot of dilaudid back then they were dirt cheap and I was injecting diaudid everyday. Seems like we ran out a few times and had to get some heroin then it came to the point where we were mostly buying heroin because it was a lot stronger than the dilaudid.
This went on every day for over a year and one thing led to another I got arrested and could not get a hold of no dope for a while this was to be my first experience with heroin withdrawal. Let me just say it was nothing pretty.
That was pretty much the beginning of my heroin addiction which went on for over 30 years before I was able to get clean and stay clean. There were also a whole lot of drug rehabs in this time plus time in the penitentiary. I did what I had to do every day to get my H. I stole lied cheated and sold dope. That did not work so well because I was my best customer.
“Let me just say that we paid a high price for a low life“
If you are trying to stop smoking, snorting, or shooting heroin I would suggest that you seriously think about going to heroin rehab. This may be the thing that actually turns your life around and as a matter of fact it may very well be the thing that saves your life because many people die all the time from heroin overdose so don’t become another statistic.
How to overcome and beat heroin withdrawal
Smoking heroin withdrawal should be the goal of any heroine addict. Yes, heroine might be an enjoyable drug, but every time it is used, a person suffers severe health consequences. It can also affect their mind resulting in a myriad of mental illnesses. Even still, trying to achieve total withdrawal from heroin will not be an easy journey to say the least and trust me here a lot will depend on how you go about it. In fact, when you go down this road, you will suffer a whole new set of physical and emotional obstacles.
Perhaps this is why there are over 3 million heroin addicts in the U.S. Even if they want to quit, the withdrawal symptoms keep them from fully meeting that goal. Yet, if you want to get your life together, you HAVE to make that next move. It might be tough, but once you get over the initial withdrawal stage, you will have the physical and psychological strength to live the rest of your life without heroine.
But if you fail in this journey, the consequences are dire. This is especially the case if you overdose on the drug. Overdose too much and you could end up going to the morgue after your trip to the hospital.
You will also damage your liver and kidneys if you continue using heroin. On top of that, the drug weakens your immune system, putting you at risk for all sorts of infections. All of these conditions can lead to death if the abuse continues. However, the symptoms associated with withdrawal are more an issue of comfort; you may suffer vomiting, temperature changes and convulsions. But you will not die.
In addition, if you go to a clinic or a hospital for your heroin withdrawal, you can be given drugs to alleviate some of the symptoms.
In any case, it has been my experience that withdrawal from heroin is is not an easy process to go through especially it you kick heroin cold turkey. And it remains one of the biggest reasons why people when trying to quit cold turkey. Even when they are trying to be good their body turns on them, making them crave the drug even more. This is why rehab centers are usually a better choice for heroine addicts. This is not to say that quitting cold turkey is completely impossible. But unless you have a strong spiritual motivation, (religion, etc.) you probably will not succeed.
If you still feel skeptical, look at your withdrawal symptoms as you would a physical drive. Try to ignore hunger or the urge to go to the bathroom. At some point your body will take over, which is why you should not be afraid of professional help. If you do go to a clinic, you will be given suboxone to quell your symptoms

Patrick Says:
Very true about the real work starting when you first leave treatment. It is pretty darn easy to stay clean and sober on the inside….but we need help and support when we first get out of rehab or we will fall on our faces! I’ve seen it happen over and over again, people almost always underestimate what they need to do in order to stay clean.
Janet Says:
I thought your information was great! I just found out my 21 year old is using heroin. I wish that you could be here to be his “big brother”, mentor, support person, or whatever he needs. He is trying to withdraw now, and its bad, real bad. I don’t know if I can sit and watch this. I need help with this. Clinics are of no help here, they are always full, or closed.
admin Says:
Thanks for your comment Janet the best way I can think of to help him if he can not get into rehab is to take him to a NA meeting as soon as he is feeling better. There he will get the support he needs from other addicts like himself.
quit smoking naturally Says:
I rarely hear smokers talk about online support groups to quit smoking. Places like stop smoking forums can help you to stop without alternatives. Get a desire to smoke, just make a post and receive help quick. It really helps! Just try it, you’ll be quite surprised how many users would attempt to help you.
des Says:
hey, dont know where to start. i’m trying to stop but im not winning!! this has been a war for me. i’m from south africa, i dont know what to do or where to go. i’m in a wonderfull relationship but i’m so scared that my girlfriend wil leave me. i love her so much but my whole world is starting to collapse. please reply with some help. thank you.
admin Says:
Hi des
I am sure there is help in South Africa for you as a matter of fact I know that there is NA there I would suggest to you that you look online at NA.org I am sure you will be able to find a meeting for you. You may be right about your girlfriend leaving you but the main thing here is that you get clean or you will never have anything. Another option of course is checking into a rehab.
Good luck

I’ve been an.active.user of ingesting herion via foil and straw, iv made a million attempts to stop ever since I went to boy instead of pharmaceutical opiates ( oc, deladid, etc) the longest stretch I’ve stopped opiates all together in. 6 years in 2 months. Daily use is and has been my norm for quite a while, I’ve robbed everything everyone and everything to support my 2 g habit of black tar a day, iv been seeking my reason to do the Damn thing and stop for a while. I feel so .defeated by how many times iv let my own self down, it is pathetic. Iv gotten no where fast with this dumb shit, anyone who is reading this and uses or has used understands. Iv turned girlfriends good girls into straight dope whores by introduceing it to them, turned good kids into needle junkies to get them to spend there money to support my addiction and done countless other just wrong wrong things. I’ve called many rehabs this past week to only find out its 500 a day with 2000 up front, I’ve asked every single admin person that I spoke to the same question ” how the Fuck do you expect to have a dope fiends with no insurance to come up with that type of money” none where able to answer the question with a legitimate answer. It’s almost if.not.more.sickening than my addiction how sobriety is “sold” these days, and not truly utilized. Everywhere the only option is to be stuck on subonxone for the next 2 years, running 11 a pill for a synthetic opiate with bolockers in it. Thy say over and over in na don’t trade an addiction for another, yet iv had just as bad withdraws and fiend for suvoxone the same way I have for dope oc etc. It’s a never-ending loop that just keeps spinning and will never let u out, or seems that way for me. I have had 4 close to death calls this past month , waking up in vomit and pissed myself, or being shaken to death by a ladie friend for 20 min just to wake up with her tears all over me not knowing what happend or what’s going on at all. My options are limited it seems, I have held my pistol of justice to my head one to many times this year longing for the sweet release away from this demons of myne grasp. God save my soul and forgive me for the wrong iv done, help me find my way out of this before I do.it the wrong way intentionally/ unintentionally..
moodi, pak Says:
I live close to Afghanistan, the home of heroin. Its cheap, but pure and lethal. Better enjoy it in cigarette. When you think its getting more than you can afford economically or socially, shut down all your connections, go to some country side, where you cant find it easily. Spend some days clean, you may be able to quit it if you want. or if you want to continue it, slow down your pace. keep it as you want do not let it get over you.
Art Says:
Thanks Moodi pak for your comment that’s a good idea about getting away from all of your connections is a good beginning I have done this myself in the past and it works for a while but with nothing to replace the dope with it was not long before I returned to active addiction. Now as far as using heroin at your own pace I have yet to meet a social heroin addict. I am sure that it may be possible but again for me one was too many and a thousand never ever enough.
Netti Says:
I want 2 stop smoking, it has almost ruined me completely, i am going to rehab next week!! I am hoping that my willpower and determination will be enough!! I wish i had never touched the stuff…invited the dragon from hell into my life, my house, my body!! God help me!! I have to add, and it is a sad reality in my country too…if u dnt hav money, its almost impossible to go to rehab!! Its more than expensive!! Government clinics are full, nobody wants to help, i wish i could open a rehab with sponsors to help people!!! As a matter of fact, when i get out of rehab, that will be my goal!! I want to help people! thomas…dont let the devil get ur soul!! If other people can stop, u can 2! U r better than heroin, stronger, a persons mind is the most powerful weapon u can hav, learn, train urself to use ur mind to beat this dragon!! Catch the dragon, kill the dragon!! Good luck to everybody!! May God have mercy and heal ur addiction, i pray this in the name of Jesus Christ…AMEN!!
Art Says:
Hi Netti thanks for your comment. I am really glad you are going to rehab. Yup heroin is Pure D hell I used it for over 30 years before I got clean but you do not have to take the road I took. That’s why I have these sites to encourage others to find a new way of life. I am also glad that you are a believer that is a big help for anyone trying to recover from drug addiction and honestly I could not have gotten clean without God in my life.
What country do you live in? I live in the U. S. and we do not have Gov clinics. That’s a great goal you have mine was to get a degree in Social Work which I am proud to say I graduate next summer with my bachelors degree. This will allow me to work with addicts professionaly.
I am sure God will help you rather you know it or not he is helping you right now plus who do you think made it possible to go to rehab!
You said this “I am hoping that my willpower and determination will be enough!!” I hope you are just talking about to make it until you get to rehab because it has been my experience that we can not stay clean on will power alone. I hope you have a solid recovery plan in place for you when you get out. I can help you with that if you need it. I will pray for you too.
Good luck and do not hesitate to write let us know how your doing.

Art Says:
Thanks a lot for your comment. It sure reminds me of myself before I got clean. I spent every penny I had time and time again plus countless detoxes NA I felt like nothing was going to work. I was wondering what was wrong with me why did NA not work for me. Yup I even tried selling it but” have you ever heard of a monkey that could sell bananas.” Anyway you get the point/
My suggestion to you is not to give up it took me over 30 years to get my life straightened out. It does not have to take you or anyone else that long. Here is what I would suggest go back to NA come clean and tell them all you relapsed. Now you are going to have to be committed if you truly want to get clean cause the only thing half measures is going to get you is another bag of dope. I would suggest that you put all your effort into NA and staying clean go to 90 meetings in 90 days. When I first got clean I was going to 2 meetings a day. I know if you are reading this that you are like 90 days sounds like forever. Well just do it and while your at it get some phone numbers from other addicts and call at least one of them every day plus go to coffee and other NA functions with them. I would also find a sponsor with at least 3 years clean and call them on a daily basis. Get the NA basic text and read it. I can tell you that if you do all this every day you will not use. I have never seen a person use who thoroughly follows this program.
I know that you can get clean and stay clean I call tell by what you wrote here today all you have to do is take action and follow these simple suggestions and you will be fine. Lost dreams will start to awaken and new possibilities will arise. I would make the commitment to your GF that you will attend no less than 90 in 90. Do not even try no lame ass excuses that you have to much other stuff to do because thats BS you found time to get high so make time for meetings.
Good luck and let us know how you are doing

I feel so bad hearing all these people going through this hell. My son, who is almost 20, is addicted to the Dragon and it breaks my heart to see him destroying his beautiful life. I have done a bit of research and watched a few disturbing movies but I can’t imagine having to go through this in MY real life.
I am an ex-drug user. My drug of choice was cocaine and freebasing and I dabbled in ‘shrooms, LSD and pot. But when my mind was made up to quit I quit. I HATED the lifestyle. I hated the person I was becoming. I then quit smoking cigarettes too – just one day woke up and didn’t smoke again. I have been clean for over 20 years now. From what I understand getting clean from these drugs are much different since the symptoms of detoxing from heroin is so severe and intense.
Today my son called me to ask me if he could come over my house for a few days to detox – to get clean. I am scared! I don’t know what to expect. I just don’t know what to expect. I have had to turn my back on him while he was using and lying to me about it. But now that he is admitting it and wanting to get clean I am more open to help him. But it’s worrying me that I won’t be able to help him get over being “sick.”
I’m also worried about him stealing from me. I know what drugs do and I know that it doesn’t matter who you are, whether related or a stranger, the shit takes over and the next hit is the only thing on your mind and it doen;t matter who you fuck to get it from you do it. I just hope he is sincere enough to get over it.
And then there is the next step after detox and being sick. It’s the life plan – it’s the “what do I do now?” Should I arrange for some help? Can we slay the Dragon alone? Am I naive to think that since I was able to overcome my drug addictions that he will be able to as well?
I feel so lost and ignorant!
Art Says:
Hi there and thanks for your comment. I can certainly understand your lack of trust and fear of being ripped off we tend to get that way after being beat so many times. Any if he is sincere the only think that you are going to be doing is being there for a sort of moral support he is the one who is going to go through the hell. He may want to give up and with you there he may try harder. I know for a fact it can be done because I have done it and more than once. If you go do not worry you will be just fine.
You are right about what your question what to do after detox. This depends if he has a lot of shit built up in him he needs to unload them addiction therapy can help with that. I also did this for 2 year while in long term rehab. It helped me to share some stuff that I could not share at a meeting. But in the end it was and is NA that is saving my life.
My suggestion is that he attend NA meetings every day for 90 days if he really wants to stop using he will do it if not he may not be through yet. In my opinion of slaying the dragon alone is like finding a needle in a haystack. I believe God has out back but he also gave us the tools to stay clean if you use them Hint Narcotics Anonymous.
If he should use again tell him not to give up it takes many of use more than one try. I am not condoling drug use just stating a fact.
Good luck

Hi Emilee thanks for sharing with us you are right with God and help from others anything is possible. Its nice to hear form people like you who are using God and support groups to stay clean. Keep up the good work.
Muffin's Mama Says:
My 17 year old Daughter had an accident at our jaquzzi last week and fell (I was told). Which when she got back upstairs and in her bathroom, she looked like she had been hit by a truck ( I am not exagerating here at all). I started asking questions and tore her room apart only to come to the realization my Beautiful Daughter that I have been so close to for so long is a drug addict! I layed with her all night making sure she was breathing and this killed me! When she woke up I told her to look in the mirror and she was shocked to see her front teeth broken, her face + body so badly damaged, and she had no memory of this. I was at a loss, I found Vodka, a bong, heroin, pills. I have never been so lost in all of my life. What to do? She is a baby and doesn’t think she has a problem, she thinks she has an over protective Mom. I have recently divorced her Dad, who happened to be born on heroin and is also an addict. I found the love of my life and married him this last December, and thought I was happy and everything was lining up well. Now I am trying to figure this out. Rehab doesn’t work unless it is something that you want, locking her in the house is making her hate me, but if I let her do what she wants…. Then what is that outcome going to be? Death? She has been smoking heroin for about 2 months now and she has hid it well, or I am living on a cloud. Not sure what to do, it is tough to be me right now, and I imagine it is even tougher to be her.
Anonymous Says:
Hi Muffin’s Mamma thanks for your comment. Yes I would imagine it is real hard for you to be right about now. I am sure she does not think she has a problem when I was 17 I did not have a problem either. I knew it all and I’ll be it is hard for you to be right about now. All I can tell you is just let here know that she is loved and locking her in her room will keep her safe for a while but this will only work so long and when she gets out she will rebel.
Here’s the thing about rehab it may not work unless you want it but it will plan a seed for when she is ready. I know that it did me although it took me many trips to finally understand that I could not use successfully no matter how hard I tried. So I can not really say that it will not help because who knows maybe if she goes it will open her eyes trust me stranger things have happened.
The bottom line is let her know she is loved but be prepared because she is at the age where she is just going to do what ever she wants to whether you like it or not. I am just giving to you straight I am not tryng to be mean or anything. I have been there and done that.
Good luck and Don’t hesitate to write back

Im 22 . Been using on and off for the past 6 years .I have been smoking almost 5 grams a day , i dont feel high , comfortable or even disconnected , its like my mind doesnt want to feel the high , whatever i do .what is the explanation , beside my very strong tolerance . Im accepted socially as user since im “brilliant” in everyone’s eyes , i work and have a very respectable income so ppl who love me tend to forget the ugly truth . My actions are tolerated , but i personally dont like the fact that im an addict , since i can see the potentials in me . Im doing great , but im sure i could do even better without it , and rehab isnt a option for me , it will stop my whole career so really dont want it as a solution . Where i live there isnt NA meetings , not even subutex clinic . Please i could really use a good advice .
Art Says:
Hi Joe well I have to ask you what lengths you would go to get your heroin and then go to the same lengths to get clean. This may mean driving a ways to get to a meeting I have heard of people in other countries that traveled all day by boat to get to a meeting twice a week. Getting clean is about taking the action to do what is necessary. Another option is driving to a Dr that is incensed to prescribe suboxone. There is also the option of going to addiction therapy.
lastly you say you are not willing to go to rehab because of your job. Well not trying to be a smart ass but if you keep using the way you are you will not have a job and will probably die from your addiction in the process. One more thing those people you say are your friends are not your friends a real friend would be at your side helping you to overcome your addiction.
Good luck

Hey art
I live in a third world country , where heroin is flowing on the streets for dirt cheap . I was never in need since one of the biggest trafficer arround here needs me more then i need him (money laundry) . About the lengths im willing to go to get clean are as far as i takes . I have been clean for more then a year an 9 months , was managing a way to get subutex from england , but the doctor who used to give me unfortunatly died of a heart attack 3 months ago .i used to travel 7 hours by plane to get it . Ive been thinking of finding a doctor here in lebanon that is willing to give me a perscription , travel again to paris this time since it is the city of subutex , and get it from there . I really cant continue like this

I wanted to ask you one more question , do you think that if i replaced my h habit with tramadol , atleast for me to be able to travel and get my med , would it be a good option ? Thanks in advance .

Hi Joe
Ya o know its tough may be a site on the internet you could find not sure. Buy ya if you can afford it I would defiantly do what I had to do to get them. They are better for you than smoking heroin. Just keep on looking you will find a way some how. Glad to hear your trying.
Good luck

And i promise you , and myself , that i really dont want it , i just dont want to be sick , everytime i go cold turkey , i lose a couple of extra kilos , i was 73 a couple of months ago , now im bearly 52 . Withdrawls are draining the life out of me , but i willing to go there one more time , as soon as i manage a way to get subutex again. I hope im not bothering you by posting too much , but i honestly have no one to talk to . My parents and fiancee are so emotional to a point where i dont find them suitable for such a disscusion .they accept what i am , but deep inside i know its tearing them apart . And btw , i cant loose my career since having a career where i am is like winning the lottery , and its the only way for us to pay for my fiancee’s father’s blood cancer treatment . She s an only child , and she lost her mother a couple of years ago in a car accident . He s the only familly she has besides me , i really cant see her heart broken , she s the most amazing person ive ever met , unconditionally loved me for who iam and she knew from before that i am an addict . I feel that it is too much for me to handle at this young age

Thanks for all the support

Ya I believe that you have got to the point where you just don’t want it. You can post all day and night and I will get back to you as soon as I can. That’s why God is helping me to stay clean to help others.
Yes it is hard on are parrents as a matter a fact it was hard on my whole family. You have a lot of people who love you and you and you say you have a great career so you have a dam good reason to quit heroin while you are still young. It took me many many years to get clean and stay clean but it dose not have to take you that long you can say to yourself this is it I am though and do the work to stay clean. They do have online meetings I knew a couple of people who used them.
Yes I think tramadol would be ok to use until you get some suboxone you could actually use them to detox if you thought you could stay clean without the suboxone. What are your plans as far as the suboxon are you planning on staying on them for maintenance or what?

I have been married for 4 years now. Well about 2 years into it my husband quit his job,seemed depressed but would never open up and started avoiding the family to hang with his friends.I have been separated from my husband now for about 3 months. After one long weekend of him not coming home I decided to pack up and leave with the girls. Well three days ago he told me that he has been addicted to Heroin for the past 2 years My heart broke because I watched my husband turn into a complete stranger and always thought it was me. He had a 10 day stay in jail 2 weeks ago and said that was his detox and is now several states away working.I told him I will be here to support him and am very empathetic. I told him about na and He said that his family leaving him is all the na he needs. I really want to be there for him and want him to get clean, especially for our small girls. It is just an unexplainable feeling finding out 2 years later that heroin is the reason i feel out of love with him. I don’t want him going back and he seems determined. I am so fearful of him relapsing. I want to be prepared with what tools that I need to support him. Thanks

Hello Friend..
I managed a pack of subutex , dextoxed on it , went to Paris , got 300 pills of subutex 8mgs , got checked by a psy there , and came back to
lebanon .
i found a doctor here ready to follow me up on my subutex treatment too . feel much better , and by the end of this summer , subutex will be available legally around here .
You asked me about my plans concerning subutex , i dont plan to be on these pills for the rest of my life , just for the time being , i just need to get in better shape , physically and psychologically , then start a tapering program until i wont even have that pill reminding me every morning that im sick and i need a med. to function normally .
The best thing now , i can finally see my parents and fiancee smiling again . And that’s enough for me to stay clean .
i stopped all other illegal activities i was involved in , even the ones not directly drug-related because the harvest of this bad seed i planted will always be addiction somehow .
thank you for your support when i needed it .
will keep you updated .
joe.

Im 21 and have been smoking heroin for about 12 months. I always tell myself I am done, but then find myself buying more and more everyday. What is subutex and is it a good way for an addict to try and quit for the first time?
