re: What is the sales pitch for meth and heroine?

Heroin at the beginning isn't dark and evil like you think. It's like a line of a strong pain medication from your doctor. Needles come down the line. We see many young people coming into the E.R. having withdrawal symptoms like the flu who don't use needles and started bc it is cheaper than the pain pills they used to get and easier to acquire.

At the very beginning and if you never go past that point then yea I agree. But I don't think heroin is "less bad" than people make it out to be, I think it's all the ignorant and uninformed(mainly this) people that think a pain pill from a Dr. is no big deal. Both are VERY bad if you take it too far. As you can see from all the posts in her saying the ppl they know who were on heroin all started from pain pills. People who don't have a clue just think "oh, my doctor gave me these and I bought them legally from a pharmacy. They can't be that bad". Little do they now that Percocet they're popping is pretty much synthetic heroin in a pill form
