Friend of mine from NJ that I met last month. She was 17. Really really good kid. Got into heroin last week. She was taken to rehab yesterday. They didn't realize she was still high, and gave her Methadone. She OD'd and died. I think I've lost over 25 friends to heroin now. That's more friends than most people have all together. Fucking heroin.
she was TAKEN.. meaning probably against her will.. lied to the doctors and they OD'ed her.. im not saying this is what happened.. but this is the most likely scenario.. especially of a youngin who doesn't know what to fucking think,say or do in a situation as such.. sad.. im still on a mission to find some though this summer.. that way if i find it at a festie.. there's no way i have a reliable source
Yeah, this is sad. If they were a teen they should've never started something as that, stick to weed man... :[
Some people don't have that option... Many people don't understand this. In 2001, do you know what was in 2nd place for ER visits right behind cocaine? Weed. OR: Sorry to hear about this, Salmon I can't even imagine losing that many people to heroin... it must feel surreal, and it must feel really bad. There's not much I can say online, but I hope things are still alright for you.
holy shit you must feel old. 2 heads i knew decently well died and i feel like 10 years older. ummm, goddamn, those fucks. aren't you supposed to wait until you start withdrawing to take methadone? and after a week?! thats fucking terrible.
panic attacks, racing heart, dizziness, intense fear, etc... I'm not saying Cannabis kills you, but for some people it's not a mild experience... it's straight up psychedelic and it doesn't work for them. U4ia was one of these people, and sometimes I am too.
well, my bro won't try pot (although I've tried so hard to get him to try but I respect his decision) 'cause he has a bad heart, if you have a touchy heart I understand it could cause some a heart attack. Fear fucks it all up. lol
That's horrible. Only 17 and cut short. I feel for you...that's a lot of lost friends. I've lost one to a Soma overuse and another to suicide and it's awful. They're supposed to wait until someone's in withdrawals before giving anything like methadone or suboxone....that's so messed up. ;( Yeah, on the weed comment...it won't kill you but can make you sure you're going to die if you get too much at once like my first experience being really stoned. To this day, I can't handle more than a couple medium hits at a time or that panic comes back. I hate when this kind of stuff happens...it's truly sad.
Id sue the fuckin place for malpractice. You dont give someone fuckin methadone while there still high. If I was you in that situation id sue that fuckin place or punch the doctor and everyone there right in the mouth. sure it may sound like immature behavior but when a friend or family member is involved i dont give a fuck.
I wish it was a full on psychedelic experience, I've always wanted to try those damn psychedelics. This spring I'm hoping to go to a festival and stock up on as much psychedelics as I can possibly get. On another note, that sucks bad. I've only known one person who died other then my grandpa to cancer when I was young. The guy hung himself. Sad shit.
I know what you are going through, man. I have lost seven really good friends to this shit and I think about them everyday. I have overdosed twice and lived to tell about it but they were not as lucky. Three of the seven I grew up with and they died in a two month period back in October of 2008. The drug that killed them was methadone and they all decided to take xanax on top of it. It sucks because I am on the clinic and I am prescribed klonopin so I think about them every morning when I dose and take my meds. Neither of them were going to a clinic and they were all pretty much clean at the time they died. Two died on the same night and Jerm died the day after he got out of prison. Two of the three had kids and the other was engaged, what a shame, to lose three awesome guys. Anyways, take care and do not do stupid shit. -NICU
^ now that is FUCKED UP!!! 2 people in one night?!?! jesus christ dude, thats terrible. and hell yea i'd sue the fucks through the ass, definitely malpractice.
Unfortunately, if she was not truthful to the doctors, there is nothing that can be done about it. That may or may not be the case. Chances are due to her age that she was scared and overwhelmed with everything that was going on. I know my brother is always deceptive as to what he uses and how frequently...ect. When it comes to doctors, the ONLY way they can help you is if you are 100% truthful with them. They are medical professionals, not police. It is an unfortunate story, without a doubt. However, the doctors probably gave her methadone based on what she was telling them about her past use/drug history. It was probably an immediate attempt to get her off H and on to a maintenance program. Stay safe guys.
yeah but still they know not to give methadone unless youre withdrawing, and its pretty obvious when thats happening. yeah she should have told the truth, but how many people go to doctors and tell the truth about their drug use? the doctors also must know this is the case and not rely solely on the word of a 17 year old girl
25 friends from H, and you still use? I guess in this case losing the lottery is a good thing. Your number will come though, not all drugs are created equal, and even responsible users can find themselves in despair and well, go over board, heroin destroyed my uncles family his wife died, then he died, then his kids disappeared we cant even talk about them at family gatherings. My grandma was the last one who was there for the kids who are now adults and they stole from her so much that even she backed out, another time my sister was giving my cousin (daughter of the dead guy, my uncle) a ride home and she starting shooting up with her bf in the back seat of my sisters car, well that bridge was burned too (and dont hate on my sister cuz shes not cool with Junk thats a dumb argument) point is it kills people and destroys families, what brings you guys back to it? Ive never done it but this very reason (people returning to it despite terrible losses) makes me wonder just how good it is. what about other opiates like lofentanyl, that stuff is 6000xs the potency of morphine, what is that like 4000xs heroin? anybody ever tried that? I think I will get vicariously high off of super opiates if you feel like informing me instead of learning empirically. your experiences? these semi synthetic opiates like the fentanyls really intrigue me
