I read an article in People magazine the other day that really struck a chord with me. I saw rows and rows of young faces forever frozen in time by this horrible drug. I stopped for a moment and thought about each time I came so close to death and tears just rolled down my face because somehow, somehow I escaped its grips.
I tried it for the first time in high school and my stomach dropped when I realized it was a feeling I'd chase indefinitely. I shoved the thought aside and went on with it. It became me. I became obsessed.
My life was almost ended by this drug. Today I can say that I am three months sober and it was the hardest thing I have ever done. Please don't try it. Avoid it and people who do it. Don't become one of those faces in the news.

I'm so happy for you!

My brother is an IV heroin addict. It's so sad how his life has changed. I hope one day he decides to get clean...before it's too late.

Well done and thanks for posting. xo
