Heroine can be taken on a lark as part of a party culture.

So, very, very chic. Anorexia was difficult before, but, it is so much easier today.

Heroine addiction can be found with co-diagnosis, including alcoholism. Heroine addicts, from personal experience at the professional level, profoundly believes they are in control of their addiction.

There is a generational issue here as well. There are still heroine addicts from the sixties. No lie. Then there are the NEW users of current generations. When life deals a young person a bad deal without use of education and work they desire, they will give up to what is available to them.

There is an unwitting culture that fights the vulnerability of our young generation found within "TED Talks." (click here) There are young people that forged their way into gainful employment and they deserve recognition.


...Once heroin frightened people. (click here) More recently, some people have
tried to make heroin use “fashionable.”
In the past decade, the “heroin addict look”—blank expression, waxy complexion, dark circles under the eyes, sunken cheeks, excessive thinness, greasy hair—was promoted in popular magazines and fashion circles as “chic.”
Just as rock stars helped popularize LSD during the 1960s, so have some fashion designers, photographers and advertising people of today influenced an entire generation of youth, by portraying heroin use in magazines and music videos as fashionable and even desirable.

This is dated to 2011. (click here)  It validates what I stated here. More accurate statistics need to be quoted in official front line efforts. Senator Markey has an interesting approach to attack the immediate danger in identifying fentanyl as the prime driver to the deaths within the heroine addiction. Ending the fentanyl supply will stem the deaths while heroine addiction will be a longer term goal.

A rather interesting side effect of adding fentanyl to heroine is the FACT police departments don't want to expose their canine companions to the detection of heroine because they can die with one sniff. I strongly suggest this side effect might be the primary driver to the use of fentanyl in heroine. It is a drug cartel enhancement that ends police authority in ending the importation of heroine to the USA. When will the Americans finally learn their lesson?
