I'm a 50 year old Heroin addict whose shot dope since '65. I love people, reading, music, mysticism, & humour. I'm a sceptic yet a Romanticist. I'm an Anarchist but a hopeless idealist. I spent many years in 12 Step programs, & though I don't subscribe to abstinence myself, I have incorporated MOST of the Spiritual principles of that self help philosophy into my life. I'm only an advocate of methadone for those who've tried many other (less drastic)methods of recovery, or for those who realistically fear for their very lives or their freedom..I also feel that methadone can be an excellent tool for short to medium term detox, along with Therapy. Just for today I'm on methadone.
