THE LAST TIME I GOT HIGH

I can remember the last time when I got high. Its been going on 2 years now. I remember sitting in my truck on the side of a downtown St. Louis street, in a really bad neighborhood. I was shaking and sweating, trying to get that hit of heroin into the bottom end of a soda can without spilling it. I was shaking so bad, I could hardly fix up the hit. Then after I got it ready, I remember the search for a vein. I have literally no veins left due to heroin use. I took off my left shoe and sock, looked around for a vein, then removed my right shoe and sock, finally I saw a small vein barely visible enough to hit, but I stuck the needle in and AHHHHHHHH. I remember this last high like I remember the birth of my child. Thats how important that shit was to me at the time. About 6 months earlier, I did a shot in my ankle that caused an abcess. The abcess got infected with staff and I ended up on an operating table. I almost quit then. I went through withdrawls so bad during my 3 day stay at the hospital, but there was nothing I could do about it at the time as I couldn't walk for a couple of weeks. But I still did dope the day I got out. But this time was going to be the last time, and because of a combination of lack of funds and my dealer not having anything worthwhile, I did without- went through the physical withdrawls again and made the decision to just stop!! Hell, I was driving 200 miles a day back and forth to the city, every time I copped a few bucks, I would head downtown for a fix. I stayed high everyday, nonstop for 3 years. I had always done drugs, of one sort or another, but when I started on heroin, it went from a once a week thing, to once a week plus weekends, then to a full blown addict, looking for a fix everyday, all day long. I will be the first one to tell you- that shit gets old!! You don't think about it while your doing it though. You have to stay off it for a week or two, then you realize what a waste it all was. The problem was, staying off it long enough to come to that realization. I for one, am sure glad I saw the light. My sister was nice enough to take me to a pyschiatrist so I could get a prescription of Subutex. I had no health insurance either and that stuff was over $700 for a 30 day script. But it works wonders!! I highly recommend anyone with a heroin problem that wants to quit, to get on Subutex!! Here is a number you can call, and if you don't have a job or health insurance, they will make sure you get it for FREE!! Call this number 866-973-4373. I will talk a little bit more about what Suboxone and Subutex are, and how they work on my next posting. I am an expert of sorts when it comes to Suboxone and Subutex. Stay straight and have a great day!!
