Heroin overdose

Heroin overdose

Heroin overdose is quite common among heroin drug users and I am going to try and explain why this occurs.

One reason for heroin overdose is that once a person develops a habit to the drug they start to take more of it to get the desired effect. Furthermore, first of all this can cause heroin overdose but after continued drug use the addict builds up a tolerance and has to take more and more to get the heroin high they got when they first stated using.

This is especially dangerous for the addict who is shooting heroin. You may wonder why this is so well.. the heroin addict who  is injecting heroin never knows the purity of the drugs they are using; for example, the quality can change from bag to bag. One dealer may have used more cut than the other dealer and it would take more for the drug addicted person to get high. Thinking this they will do more and if the bag happens to be the P well then heroin overdose is imminent.

I started using heroin over 30 years ago but I am clean today but I overdosed on heroin several times as a matter of fact one time I O. D. was rushed to the hospital by ambulance and when I came to I had tubes coming out of me everywhere. Well when I seen the Dr. I asked him when I could go home and he said why you got some more heroin at home? I responded that I did not. What a lie that’s the only reason I wanted to leave because I knew I had more dope at home.

Heroin addiction can cause some sick thinking. What person in their right mind would go repeat the same behavior right after they dam near died of heroin overdose. All I know is that my diseased thinking wanted me to do another bag of dope. If any of this sounds familiar to you I would strongly suggest that you get some heroin addiction help.

One can get the help they need in heroin rehab. If you go you will have a medical heroin detox. Once you have successfully completed this then I would continue my heroin addiction recovery in residential treatment. If you do not do this you will in all likelihood relapse!!

Keep in mind that any addict can stop using heroin, lose the desire to use, and find a new way to live.

Good luck
