How Oxycontin Addiction Turns Into Heroin Addiction (part 2 of my oxycontin story)

If you missed part 1 check it out here ...
• How Oxycontin Took Ove...
This video is the second part of the oxycontin story. My addiction was getting worse by the day. I started needing hundreds of dollars of oxy a day just to feel somewhat normal.
The people who I was getting high with all started using heroin because it's so much cheaper and the government started to regulate oxycontin.
Like so many others, my addiction progressed from oxycontin and painkillers to heroin...

    I’m honestly surprised you don’t have more subs. Just keep cranking out the content and the subs will come. You’re an easy person to listen to and you got some great stories. Videos like these really help clear your head and realize sometimes your situation is only as bad as you make it.

    I did pills for 10 years and never once was down to try heroine. I would lay there and withdrawal until I could get a pill or money for it. I never wanted a bag of something that I didn't k ow what was in it or how strong it was. I just don't really understand the whole excuse it's cheaper or whatever. It's a decision that is made to go and do the heroine. I guess it doesn't scare some people enough to not do that just because they can't get the pills.

    Didn’t they reformulate OC OxyContin to be inert abuse resistant OP OxyContin in 2010 which led to people flocking to Perc 30 Roxi’s? I remember those were flying around my high school like candy in my senior year in 2012. I saw several friends then switch to Roxi’s and then a few finally to heroin so quickly because of the $1 per mg price. Then of the few of those that switched to heroin, most are now gone.

    At my worst i was doing 30 Norco a day. I was able to wean down once to meet a girl, but when she broke up with me i went back on the drugs. Finally I ran out of money and my only option would've been to steal and buy heroin on the street. I was too chicken shit to do that so i spent the summer of 2006 on my couch unable to eat or sleep and got clean. I've been prescribed lortabs after some surgeries and was able to take them as prescribed and stopped. I'm never going through that hell ever again.

    I wrote a book called "Pillstorm" 10 yrs ago and couldn't get it published by any no-fiction publishers (partly my fault not hitting more than 10 publishers). Anyway, I did a large portion on Oxy since I had dependence with it 30 yrs ago for decades after a serious car accident, and I am a clinician with 50 yrs of medical experience. It was the most difficult drug to taper. PS: Did you take heroin IV, IM or other (snort or smoke)?
