i agree. well here it is....my demon....i was addicted to nubain....then oxycotinin, then HEROIN. that right 4 years worht of pain and anguish and trying to not be sick constantly. i was up to 10 bags of heroin per shot!!! thats a whole bundle!!!!! and that was 3-5 times a day!!!! i am recovering about 4 years clean now. i went on methadone and the suboxone. even still you have to suffer withdrawls to get from one medication to another and resist the urge to use or you start all over again! when people tell me its to hard to quit anything i get so pissed. if ican do it then you can too! but it takes an inner strength some people just dont have. my mom had a heart attack a few weeks ago. she hadnt smoked for 2 weeks and i found out yesterday she is smoking again! i am so pissed and she says i dont understand.
opiates are hell. they will bring you to the brink of insanity and back. the one positive thing is i know i can do ANYTHING after that hell!!!!!
Damn Lucian, I didn't know that about you. You have my total respect bro.
I smoked for a few years and I quit. But it took me several attempts to be successful. I do think they add chemicals to American cigarettes to make them more addictive than just the nicotine alone. When I am in Mexico, I might grab a pack of Cuban cigarettes or a few cigars and smoke those for a week or two. Never had a problem putting those down. But they use only tobacco. No additives or flavorings.
