Addiction to narcotic substances among young people has become a very worrying problem. " Tch " today conducted an interview with a former heroin user, she tells about her several-year struggle with the drug and her return to it.
He started heroin only when he was 23 years old, and everything started out of curiosity. As she wanted to help her friend who was taking heroin, she fell prey to it herself. For 5 years, the heroine accompanied him every day, until she found the strength to share this with her parents.
Despite the fact that he managed to quit for several years, some problems made him come back again. But the motivation to give up the second time was even stronger. She found out she was pregnant. Today she is 36 years old and in rehabilitation, while she consumed heroin only through her nose and not with a syringe.
The story of the 36-year-old woman, whose name and portrait are withheld for privacy reasons:
It was not a decision. The cause was a friend of mine. I met her at a difficult moment in her life and mine, even though we had nothing in common. I took him to my apartment to help him get off this road. I noticed that he did not lock himself in the bathroom and used it secretly with me. During the conversation I told her, I'll try it, she didn't want to. I had no information about how addiction was created.
You are in a state of sleep, not fixed in sleep, haunted, you see such vivid dreams and experiences. Very nice feelings. At first in small doses that lasted me all day. You can't stop heroin because you're in pain. I was 23 years old and used it for 5 years.
I lost my high school friends, I distanced myself from them because it seemed to me that they understood that I was a drug user. I had my own business and did not suffer degradation to secure money to buy it. Physically, I changed 100 percent, from a person who took care of himself to a complete transformation.
I lost weight, my mother washed me. It didn't occur to them that I could have done something. I have become a mother myself and I wish not to experience the pain I caused my mother. When I told my mother, she said 'it's not true, you're lying, we'll do an analysis'.
I told him to help me. They kept me very close and I managed to break away for 6-7 years. Then I went through some defeats in life, problems in the family, I didn't have an authoritative father. I have neither brother nor sister.
My husband has helped me a lot, so I am rehabilitating. I was not a user when I met my husband and I told him when I started. He felt bad and was prepared for this, as he knows many people and knows very well what such a person is like. When I started using again I got pregnant and it helped me a lot to quit.
