suicide

so i found out the other day that my partners friend, and son of one of the head honchos at my company, and also was a friend of mine for a little while, killed himself sometime thanksgiving morning.
this is a guy(27) who had alot of potential. im not even sure why he did it yet, ill know more once the police tell his family more details. all we know so far is that a sheriff found him at the beach, he had hung himself. they said they found an empty needle nearby. they dont have to tell us what was in the needle, we all already know. heroin has claimed another life.
it started about 8 years ago when my partner and he first started doing pain pills, eventually upgrading to oxy's, then shooting them. then about 4 years ago they had a crazy night, ended up running out of pills and money. freaked out, this guy tried to kill himself and my partner ended up finishing his detox at his parents house. to make a long story short, after several attempts to quit and even going to prison for theft(to feed the addiction), this guy finally convinced himself that he had no problem, upgraded to heroin, and for the last 6 months has been ducking his bills, owed roommate rent for all 6 months, plus money he borrowed from his grandmotherS to pay the rent(that was never paid), and finally about 2 weeks ago he stole roughly $4000 from his father and dissapeared. thanksgiving morning was the first time anyone knew where he was.
he went out with a bang. literally. if i know this guy like i think i do, and my partner definately does. he took that $4k and had one hell of a bender, only to realize on his last needle full that he had noone and nothing left. so he killed himself, on a day for family, at the place he loved most, before drugs got ahold of him. he ruined a day for friends and family for alot of people. selfish bastard.
this re-affirms my opinion that anyone who shoots opiates is an idiot.

Selfish bastard is right. Don't blame the drug, blame the fuck wad that let the drug consume him.

from what i hear around, there arent too many who dont let heroin consume them. i personally know 3 people who let it get out of control. fortunately the other two got their shit together.
i tried it once with this guy and my partner, and i knew right away that i couldnt ever touch the shit again.

HAD. yeah he did. its a shame too, because he used to have an extremely good paying job at my company. and his father tried so many times to get him help. now the poor man is blaming himself because he doesnt think he tried hard enough to get him help. when the simple fact is, he never wanted help. he didnt view his problem.... as a problem.

its alright. it hasnt affected me nearly as much as it has my partner and his family. thanksgiving will never be a happy time for them again.
on a side note, the police found a 2 inch thick stack of pawn reciepts spanning roughly 7 months. he stole uncountable amounts of shit from his parents and others.

I am sorry to hear that man, that is really shitty.
And Caribou, in my experience, heroin is just as addictive as oxycontin. I have never shot up though that may be a difference.

Damn, I feel bad for the relatives, parents, and friends. The guy who killed himself got off easy.
