Not surprised. Not even sad, really. I just have a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. You never want to hear that a friend of yours died. Like I said, I'm, not surprised. I thought I was going to see him overdose last year at Summer Camp. But it didn't happen until last night. He was going to go to the Dave Matthews show at Darien Lake. He didn't make it. I feel really sorry for his family and his son. I think heroin addicts are very selfish. I think this has been a slow suicide for 15 years. He was a really kind hearted person underneath. What makes people keep going with heroin is beyond me.
I know how you feel. I was in a band with someone who killed himself on heroin. Sad waste of a talented life.
I hope all the youngsters watch Requiem for a Dream before they decide to fuck with heroin. Its a pretty damn accurate movie.
sorry to hear that. I've known quite a few people to die from heroin, including a guy who moved to nyc to work for David Letterman and died only 3 days after getting there. It is a true waste
i send out my prayers to you and your friends family. I have had a couple friends pass onto the great beyond because of the same reason. It is painful and sad on so many levels. Many heroin addicts actually (believe it or not) have a sub-conscious death wish because the addiction takes away any drive for living day after day. Your friend may not be physically there anymore, but he is there existing in spirit and not connected the the physical chains that bind them any longer. It hurts because in a way, heroin addictions do seem selfish. Almost everyone, this day in age, knows that heroin is a dangerous and extremely addictive drug, so why would anyone start? Everyone has their own reasons. The only good that can come of this is for you to rise up. Wake up and live. Do not let your friend die in vain, as impossible as it sounds, make some sort of positivity come of this.
I die a little everyday, and sometimes I think it is only a matter of time before I start shooting up. I suppose a spike full of heaven in my arm is a better way to die than a bullet in my mouth.
Delilah's so sweet isn't she? hon, you know it was going to happen. like you said, I'm surpirsed it didnt happen sooner. it's very kind of you to point out he was a good person underneath. he was. and he's not hurting himself or his family anymore so rest your little heart.
