Heroin Addiction: Any Book Suggestions if My Significant Other Is an Addict?
Question by sue: Any book suggestions if my significant other is an addict?
Recently I dated a guy who is an addict, and even though he has given his biggest addictions the boot, such as heroin, there were still some issues. We aren’t currently speaking because of some relapse problems, however I still care about him more than words can even explain. I worry about him all the time and can’t seem to get him off my mind. Can anyone recommend a good book for me to kind of help me through this rough period? I’m around 20 years old and it would really help if the book recommendation could target that age group rather than a book made more for a married couple. Thanks in advance!
douglas, addicts need love too. if you were deemed unloveable just because you don’t know the difference between “there”, “they’re”, “their”, “your”, and “you’re”; i bet you’d feel pretty bummed. my feelings for him are not an illusion, i really do care about him. however, this isn’t the topic of my question.
and for the record i asked for a book suggestion, not a meeting suggestion.
Heroin Addiction: I Have Been an on and Off Heroin Addict for Many Many Years. I Mostly Do It Recreationally but When I Have?
Question by jello: i have been an on and off heroin addict for many many years. i mostly do it recreationally but when i have?
been addicted it has been entirely purposefully, as if i need a time out from life, and i have quit when i really wanted to. not to say it hasnt been very physically and psychologically painful, for it does cause permanent mood problems. i have recreationally smoked crack for many years, it has only been recent that i had become a crackhead. i didnt know i was a crackhead at the time, i thought it was the same as heroin, that i was in control, and i was, kind of. anyway, after a year i kicked, and quite easily at that, and it has been several months since i’ve done it, but i keep getting these images of smoking crack that cause extreme physical urges. the truth is, crack isnt even fun. it causes me to become crazy and paranoid, but the desire is so strong anyway. . apparently lab rats will desire crack to their deaths. why do i desire a drug thats not fun? as opposed to heroin, which is physically more addictive more enjoyable, but doesnt cause me such immediate desire?
