I always feel a little guilty when I have comments such as yours ecause I could hve so easily been a parent also.<br /><br />Cracks an awful drug, in many ways much worse than heroin. At least with H when the addict has th money and their dope they are normal. Crack completely changes the personality of the user. I'm just so sorry you had to live through that.<br /><br />You can mail me ANYTIME.. if you've questions or would just like to talk... I'm always very open. <br /><br />I hope some day things will go beter around this.... I hope so.<br /><br />Hope your life goes well..

My mother was/is a crack addict, she dropped me off at my grandma's when i was 6 and didn't come back, my great aunt picked me up and my grandma committed suicide. My mom was a crack addict for 7 years straight. In and out of jail and rehab, but always back to crack. I hated her, I resented her, and I really just wanted her to die. She became pregnant with my sister and sobered up for two solid years, (this past january was the second year). Then she went to the ghetto area of our town again, and started up. I wrote her a letter, but I've still never sent it. We have a love/hate relationship, and I'm not entirely sure why I'm telling you mine and my mother's life story. She went into jail three times between january and april. Each time I considered sending the letter, but never did. But, she's sober now, and we still have the love/hate relationship. I never open up to her or let her in my life anymore, but thank you for this post, I feel like I know more about her past now, seeing as how she won't talk about it.Malloryynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-36703043967709000372009-04-11T02:44:00.000+02:002009-04-11T02:44:00.000+02:00Mauzzie,You read away silently... that you're ...Mauzzie,<BR/><BR/>You read away silently... that you're reading is great in itself. Still, thanks for your comment & your right if you've nothing to say.. don't say it. ;)<BR/><BR/>I understand exactly what you write because my relationship with my brother & sister crumbled due to my drug use. I never done anything to them, but just the distance that it put between us was enough for them to feel I had disappeared. Even to this day it remains like that.<BR/><BR/>With our bad childhood we always talked about it and laughed of it... I think that has a lot to do with my acceptance of it as an adult. It must be very difficult to remain silent about it... especially with your brother a he was the only one there experiencing it with you. I know this as after the death of my father my childhood took a different turn to that of my siblings, & some things have remained closed within me.<BR/><BR/>One thing I will tell you is that there should be no guilt on your side for the the direction your brother took... or things that may have happened. Not even in your behaviour towards him and his problem. It's very admirable that you continue to try and understand... it's not a very common trait.<BR/><BR/>Whether your brother is really clean... yeah, it's very difficult to tell. The addict learns how to hide there condition and only to show up when they're feeling well. Let's just hope that he's telling the truth, hey?<BR/><BR/>If you'd like to talk of this, or to ask anything that you do not want to discuss in public, you can always mail me personally... that's never a problem.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, you take care and enjoy reading & hopefully we'll speak again soon.<BR/><BR/>Best Wishes, Shane.<BR/><BR/>mr.shanelevene@gmail.comMemoirs of a Heroinheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401281805284793756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-33451539659812146572009-04-11T02:11:00.000+02:002009-04-11T02:11:00.000+02:00I sometimes come back to read your posts.

My brother, who I am very close to, was a user- heroin and crack. He is clean for years now, he says. I'd like to believe that though.<BR/><BR/>But your journal gives me a chance to understand his side of the story. We have had a rough common childhood- none of us talk about it- but that does not make it stop existing. It pained me immensely then.. to see him fading away. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing. I never stopped trying to understand his side even when he disappointed me, ran away looking for money leaving me home alone in a less than ideal sorroundings... your posts casts some light on how it might have been for him. <BR/><BR/>Cheers.Mauzziehttp://mauzzie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-89620153200544382202009-04-07T06:03:00.000+02:002009-04-07T06:03:00.000+02:00Starrlight... you're a **STAR!** Commenter of the ...Starrlight... you're a **STAR!** <BR/><BR/>Commenter of the Year!<BR/><BR/>XMemoirs of a Heroinheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401281805284793756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-52878783152163444292009-04-07T00:24:00.000+02:002009-04-07T00:24:00.000+02:00Save us from the heedles!!!Save us from the heedles!!!Cinnamon Girl https://www.blogger.com/profile/06542122037324196279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-15011365479766997812009-04-06T23:25:00.000+02:002009-04-06T23:25:00.000+02:00Anonymous, welcome back Darling... it's wonder...Anonymous, welcome back Darling... it's wonderful you read my posts and the comments... not many people do that.<BR/><BR/>The way you think then means that HIV is also associated with homosexuals.

Very few addicts are homeless go check your statistics. You'll find homelessness is intertwined with alcohol & mental illness and not heroin. Criminals, no: less than 3% of prison inmates are addicts. You're just repeating things without checking the facts... following like the Nazi youth. <BR/><BR/>You're well out your depth with art (as you are with everything)... so I'm not even going to give you a lesson on that one. But if you think any crimes are being committed, you should phone the police... my name, address and telephone number are all on this blog. You've picked the wrong guy to try and act smart with. <BR/><BR/>Last thing.. I'm going to report you to Mensa... you've obviously got a huge IQ.

And one thing worse than junkie scum is an idiot."<BR/><BR/>Actually, that is an idiotic thing to say. I know many people who look down on drug addicts that aren't racist or against gay people. They are TOTALLY different things and to suggest being a drug addict is the same as race or sexuality is ridiculous.<BR/><BR/>And if you want to say heroin is associated with artists and musicians because some of them have been addicts then I'm sure you would agree that heroin is associated with homelessness, criminals, and people who have HOV and hep C since there are a lot more heroin addicts that fall in that category than are artists and musicians.<BR/><BR/>Unless you are a famous artist I highly doubt you make enough to support a habit by selling your art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-6941255141371654352009-04-03T21:24:00.000+02:002009-04-03T21:24:00.000+02:00Ahh this was an interesting read.

I use myself and it ends there.<BR/><BR/>What is promotion is making something seem so rebellious and dangerous that it becomes attractive. <BR/><BR/>Yes, crack is 5x the price of heroin and is gone in no time. You can get through hundreds of $$$'s of crack in an evening. heroin is extremely cheap.. 15$ can keep up an addiction. Crack is a cheap drup by reputation, but not by price.<BR/><BR/>there is NO drug that I know of where 'use once and you're addicted'... it's just another myth.<BR/><BR/>Take care, Shane.Memoirs of a Heroinheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401281805284793756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9193316819499446317.post-54705080125677937752009-04-03T15:54:00.000+02:002009-04-03T15:54:00.000+02:00Wow.

The drug campaigns of the 80's here in the US made it seem like crack was such an epidemic because of it's widespread availability and because it was cheap. It goes to show how limited and unrealistic drug education was here in the US when we were taught that heroin was expensive, crack was cheap, and that one marijuana would lead to addiction. <BR/><BR/>I think one of the greatest disfavors that drug education in the US has done is not be truthful with kids about why drug use is appealing. I think the parents associations would freak out over such honesty and the puritanical mindset of the American parent would insist that honesty was equivalent to promotion.<BR/><BR/>I appreciate your dead on truthfulness about your experiences.
