your everyday heroin addict

My name is Marie, born & raised in London, England. I live in Las Vegas Nevada, and I attend UNLV as an undergraduate student. Also work at ceasers palace on the strip. I live a double life as a typical preppy girl, and my other life as a heroin addict, which is the real me. the part most people dont know about. This blog is simply to express MYSELF without being judged of my addiction, and for once to not hide this whole other part of myself. This blog isn't to influence drug use, I encourage & condone sobriety, but also know the reality of this evil disease, and that's why I'm here for all of you. Whether it's needing a friend, someone to relate to, vent to, listen to, or have any questions/concerns/help, this is why my blog is here. For all my lovely dedicated followers. Enjoy.

I did not direct my life. I didn’t design it. I never made decisions. Things always came up and made them for me. That’s what life is.

Others imply that they know what it is like to be depressed because they have gone through a divorce, lost a job, or broken up with someone. But these experiences carry with them feelings. Depression, instead, is flat, hollow, and unendurable. It is also tiresome. People cannot abide being around you when you are depressed. They might think that they ought to, and they might even try, but you know and they know that you are tedious beyond belief: you are irritable and paranoid and humorless and lifeless and critical and demanding and no reassurance is ever enough. You’re frightened, and you’re frightening, and you’re “not at all like yourself but will be soon,” but you know you won’t.

For years mental health professionals taught people that they could be psychologically healthy without social support, that ‘unless you love yourself, no one else will love you’ …The truth is, you cannot love yourself unless you have been loved and are loved.

No, you won’t get addicted the first time you use a drug, but all wildfires start some where small and gradually build up. It spreads so fast, you don’t even notice the damage done and then you realize, there’s something about sobriety that just doesn’t appeal to you anymore. So you continue to let the fire burn every tree you once planted in your mind that was so full of life, now just the ashy grey remains containing your only peace of mind.
