So I refuse to talk to her.
I'm done with heroin users.
How about yourself?
I don't really associate with anyone who is addicted to opiates. But I do have a soft spot for some, because I know what they're going through. (Yes, i'm clean from opiates now.)

Alcohol is not more addictive than opiates.
Sorry but you are wrong.

Exactly. Alcohol is much more addictive than opiates. But it's legality and acceptance means someone can be an alcoholic and still have a job. But not so with heroin and other opiates..

I used Heroin responsibly for like two years before I got addicted. And I know a bunch of my other friends used it for a long time too before it got them. But it will get anybody eventually if they use it enough times. I guess there are a FEW people who can do it in moderation but I'd have to say that is a very small percentage.
That's unfortunate you got addicted But making a statement that "everyone will get addicted" is stupid and naive.

That being said, if you can get a steady supply and still have money, you can fuction for the most part. If you call being a junkie functioning.
I would call someone who uses opiates every day a junkie. I wouldn't call someone who uses opiates every month or so a junkie. One is addicted, the other is not. You can be a functioning junkie, but use of opiates does not automatically make someone a "junkie".
I didn't say everybody will get addicted, I actually said there are a few people who can use Heroin in moderation. From personal experience, I just don't think it is a lot. I'm pretty sure something like only 10% of people who try Opioids become junkies but I think the number becomes much higher for people who dabble with them on a semi-regular basis.

I call bullshit
Opiates would definitely be much less dangerous if they were legal.
If ifs and buts were candies and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas...
So fee, I think you're setting a good policy. Not that it even makes much of a difference in your own life. IME when people get hooked they don't have time for friends and you might as well not know them anyway.

Indeed they would be safer if they were legal. Most people I have seen OD have done so because of the huge variance in quality of heroin or because of additives like Fetanyl.

Really? Google Prof. David Nutt (was president of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology and is currently vice-president of the European Brain Council, so you know, I think he knows his stuff ) and his 2010 study on the harms of various drugs. - You can read the abstract here: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140673610614626

Yeah that is true. Unfortunately the illegality means no quality control. It also means that if a workplace finds out someone uses opiates they will be fired, causing them to lose even more.

It's an incredibly dangerous market.

I see your point.
And I've been in rehab(for a few days but anyway)
My point is just that you shouldn't judge people unless they choose to fuck you over or do something to someone that you don't approve of .. Use of drugs/a certain drug shouldn't be a meter for whether or not that person is a nice guy/girl

The way I usually see people die is because for whatever reason the stop for a few months (mostly due to jail) and then they shoot up what they normally did before they stopped and due to having a low tolerance they OD.
Opiates being legal would not circumvent this from happening.
Why become close to someone that plays Russian roulette everyday.

Trust me I know haha. I've been using heavily lately and I feel like a shadow of who I once was. Sad thing too is I've been in Suboxone treatment for like a year. That pretty much helped for about 2 months, now it just helps me get high

That definitely happens too. But I wouldn't say it accounts for the majority of overdose deaths. I know plenty of people who have OD'd, none have been because they just got out of jail.

Good to hear it worked for you. It would have for me too if all my friends weren't fucking addicts too.

If I would have kept taking suboxone for as long as my doctor recommended, I would have been more addicted to that than I ever was to conventional opiates. It's a temporary solution, and the w'd's from suboxone are TERRIBLE. I wish you the best
