Heroin is an incredibly abusive drug that can destroy lives and cause death.  Don’t believe me?  Here are some examples of celebrities who became addicted to heroin at a very young age and the pain it caused in their lives.

When he was just six years old, Robert Downey Jr. first became addicted to drugs.  According to his testimony, he was “surrounded by drugs, and that was the type of home he grew up in.”  Amazingly, at age twenty-two he recognize that he had a serious drug problem and went to rehab in 1987.  However, the pull of drugs is a hard call to ignore and Downey was arrested three times in 1996 for drug and weapons charges.  Jail, rehab, and more heroin all went hand in hand for Downey for many, many years before he finally broke free of heroin, although he says he is still regularly stopped by law enforcement officials.  Courtney Love “reportedly used heroin during the early stages of pregnancy with her daughter.”  She also was introduced to drugs at a very young age; as a four year old.  After being arrested in 2003 she was rushed to the hospital for an Oxycontin overdose.  Oxycontin is related closely to heroin.  Although Love has been through rehab several times, drug use and legal troubles continues to haunt Love’s life.    Read more...
