I aggressively sought out the hardest drugs from the age of 15 and 25yrs later I still have regular binges. I’ve used it IV always. When it was new and amazing. When it dragged me to the lowest points of my existence. When I had to stand up to it and say enough. When I moved to Nowhere-Ville to hide from it, and finally, our reconciliation based upon my acceptance that I date a powerful and manipulative woman and I can only let her damage my body a fraction of what I used to. I still get a huge rush when I know I am about to see her. She still excites me more than anything else I use but I am really trying to vary my drug choice regularly so I can balance out my experiences. But she will always have a place in my heart and hopefully my life.

Into my 40’s, I’ve practiced much restraint in passing the pipe on to the next tweaker for over 20+ years.
Yet stories like these take me to a place I’m happy to go in my mind, without feeling guilt from use. I know that if I’d ever awakened that monster in my head, it would be powerful than any love, or faith I’ve ever felt.
Thanks for writing such a powerful , honest article, for sharing your dirty secrets, despair, your dry bones of lost dreams and future hope. I hope you are doing much better today.
