Drugs can ruin your life
This question is quite appropriate for me. I spent years taking and selling massive drugs, and a good time was had by all whilst I stuck to pills, acid, ket, weed and so on.

Unfortunatey I graduated into heroin and crack and spent a while away from society, and had a lovely spell in a residential rehab.

Drugs cost me my wife, my health, my son, my home, my clean criminal record (no drugs convictions but many associated with them).

I have all these things back, but it was a close call.

I know a lot of users still, and a lot of heavy people in London. I've had a couple of slip ups but, when I found myself in a flat in Stokey bagging a load of heroin and crack, sitting with a few friends who were discussing some horrific brutalities and with guns in the room, I remembered what I was risking, and, after that day, have kept clean.

It's not easy, but I don't wish to lose my family or career again.

Just say no kids.

Been there myself, not much fun when you reach that point.
Never got a criminal record but it's all on my medical records and my prospect of getting affordable life-insurance is nil, which is a fucker because I too have wife and child. Still hooked on benzos, too. Don't think I'll ever get off those!
Nice one for turning it all around.
