Guy with past drug addiction?

Question by bambooey: Guy with past drug addiction?
This guy I met, who, by the way is the sweetest, most shy person I think I’ve probably met, used to have a drug problem. I found out that a couple years ago, for a year he was addicted to heroin. He went through rehab and smokes pot every once in a while, but that’s it (as far as I know and am told). I don’t do any drugs and he knows this.

I’m just wondering if there’s anyone out there who has met someone who went through a phase in their life with drugs, that is clean now, and has been for a while? We tend to put a label on people who have had drug problems, but all they are is addiction, really.

Have you witnessed someone or ARE you someone who has overcome a bad drug addiction?

Do you believe people really can change it all around?

Heroin users are notorious liars. They come across as sweet and innocent. Stay clear!
