I Used, To Help Myself Relax

My name is Barbara, I am twenty seven and recovering from drinking and abusing heroin. I began using back in high school with marijuana but quickly graduated to cocaine and metamphetamines. I always felt that I used to help myself relax but I was very wrong.

I Wanted To Let It All Go
I grew up in a fairly large family (7 of us) and we lived with my Mom who cared for us and made the most out of what little we had. She drank and partied on the weekends, so I was exposed to alcohol very early in life. I would try marijuana and opium at age 12 but felt it was a waste of time and money, so I would not indulge until much later.

I Went Home Bitter And Addicted

I grew up in a fairly large family; there were seven of us. We lived with my Mom, who cared for us and made the most out of what little we had. She drank and partied on the weekends, so I was exposed to alcohol early on in life. I tried marijuana and opium at age twelve but felt it was a waste of time and money. I would not indulge until later in life. It wasn't until age seventeen, when I started attending college, that I began indulging in all kinds of immoral behavior.

I Will Die In My Addiction

My life of drug abuse started when I was ten years old.My addiction would take me into my mid-thirties. I've done everything from marijuana to LSD, PCP to smoking crystal meth everyday for three years. Not only did I have a drug problem, but also a behavior problem stemming from all the drug abuse.
