Three days sober. Since I've been detoxing, it's been extremely difficult to sleep, to eat, to get out of bed in the morning to go to work. Last night as I was tossing and turning in my bed, all I could think about was heroin. My dreams when I was briefly sleeping were filled with h: trying to find a dealer, trying to find a place to safely shoot up, etc. The physical symptoms right now are relatively easy to deal with (God knows how many times I've vomited from drug use and just kept going, how many sleepless nights I've spent intoxicated, how many days I've gone without food), but oh my... psychological addictions are so hard to overcome. After I overdosed, I felt an immense repulsion to h. Here I am, almost a week after overdosing and I'm craving it again. Probably because my stomach has finally calmed down enough for me to keep food down: I haven't vomited in over 24 hours and I've had two decent meals today. I absolutely
DO NOT want to go back to h, but my mind will not quit thinking about it. I've heard from other users that once you try h, even just once, you will never quit thinking about it. Has anyone here had experience on this front? I'd like to know if this is true

I know that when I used to do cocaine, I didn't really care for it, but I find myself still craving it from time to time, even though I haven't done any in years. I'm wondering if this will be a similar experience? Except my affinity for heroin is (was?) much greater than my affinity for cocaine and other stimulants :\
