I’m suffering. Living day to day, just to find a reason to wake up in morning. That is, if I’m even able to get some sleep in the first place. It appears that sleep is the only time of day when the overbearing thoughts of heroin subside for some time.
Unfortunately, the moment I open my eyes, the cravings return in full strength. My parents are constantly pleading me to drop this nasty habit, but I’m simply not able to do. Every time I attempt to do so, I get a panic attack, which only goes away after I get my hands on another dose.
Yesterday, my dad threatened to kick me out of the house if I don’t come to my senses, which made my heart thump with fear. Why doesn’t he seem to understand that life without heroin doesn’t seem possible at this time? Should I turn to other opioids to numb down the pain?
Sorry about not reaching you sooner, I noticed your post several months ago, but I completely forgot to get in touch with you. First of all, I hope that you were able to solve all of your problems and that you are now sailing towards a better life. If that is the case, I want to congratulate you from the bottom of my heart!
However, even if you haven't yet reached that point, do not give up, there is always hope for a better tomorrow. Unfortunately, in order to get there, you first need to get rid of that nasty habit. Drugs won't bring you anything good, but I'm sure you already know that, even if you're trying to suppress these feelings out of shame or fear.
Still, you first have to accept the fact that you have a problem. Taking new amounts of drugs will only broaden your suffering. Trust me, there are so many beautiful things and pleasures that await you on the other side. The only thing that's preventing you from ever reaching them is the fear. A fear that is keeping you locked inside this imaginary cage.
For the good of you and everyone around you, I hope you'll be able to do it as soon as possible! Contact me if you need any guidance along the way and I promise I'll always give you an honest peace of advice. Sending you the best wishes from Toronto.
