Heroin Addiction
"Heroin is without doubt one of the most addictive substances known to mankind and anyone of any colour or class level can get addicted"
Heroin is one of the most addictive drugs people can take and although it has gone out of fashion recently in the UK, it is still very much a mainstream drug in the USA and people say it never goes out of fashion.
Afghanistan is the main source of heroin and since the war over there the production of heroin has increased greatly so the price has fallen.
The interesting thing about heroin is that nobody ever really chooses to do it themselves and they are normally always introduced to it by a freind or a partner.
Heroin can be smoked or injected depending on either the choice of the user or the desperation to the get the high.
Withdrawl from Heroin is fast and 3 to 5 hours after their last fix they start getting flu like symptoms and heroin makes you constipated so as that wears off you start to leak.
Injecting causes your veins to collapse and it has been known to be cut with brick dust to increase the bulk so it can very quickly destroy your veins.
Users that inject heroin will often drink a lot of water to increase the size of their veins.
Demand for heroin spans all levels of society and income level.
Heroin is one of the most profitable drugs to sell, so many drug dealers prefer to sell it and all dealers need to do is announce they have a stock and people will flock to buy.
Users can spend as much as $500 a day on heroin if they are into pure.
