Heroin addiction



Did everyone notice how judgemental people were in the first session? Well, i was thinking, and it struck me that someone admitted to being a heroin addict. But what was said about this in lecture? Absolutely nothing. I would have thought that Mark would have at least offered some help in private or something like that, but he didn't. That just shows how bad heroin addiction is perceived to be by both our CLASS and LECTURERS. It has not been mentioned once on a blog. Mark, by the looks of it, accidentally forgot to add it to the list of confessions on Wolf, no where does it say one of you confessed to being a heroin addict. https://wolf.wlv.ac.uk/hlss/40028/bad%20things%202008-09.htm?menu=152331

I think the above was an important point to make. Not offering help and denying it all shows how bad people feel it is, and that makes heroin addicts bad people.

Why am i going on about this? Because i battled heroin addiction for nearly ten years, and it ruined my life. Its exactly these attitudes that stop addicts getting the help they need. I got help, went to college, and am now at uni. So, which ever one of you is hooked on booting or shooting, it only gets worse, believe me, so get some help. Just make sure it ain't from the uni, or you will probably loose your degree. Enough moaning.
