Heroin Addiction: A Few Questions in Honor of Layne Staley Being Found Dead Today 7 Years Ago and Weed Day…?

Question by Layne [Capricorn Sister]: A few questions in honor of Layne Staley being found dead today 7 years ago and weed day…?
Layne Staley of Alice in Chains was found dead today 7 years ago in his Seattle apartment. The death was presumed to be the result of a speed ball (heroin and cocaine) overdose. The dark lyrics of Alice In Chains songs, particularly those on their album dirt, dealt with drug addiction. Layne was one of the most powerful vocalists of the “grunge” movement (although The band considers themselves to play heavy metal). Layne also made metal vocals,something normally not considered to be very soulful, beautiful.

On a lighter and less addictive note, today is also weed day. (4/20)

So what is your favorite song about drugs? (not to glorify them or anything but many great songs are about drugs)

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?
