Origins of addiction<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It may be hard to believe that heroin comes from a flower, but that’s precisely the origin of one of the most addictive substances on earth. The opium poppy thrives in regions as diverse as Mexico, Asia, South America and the Middle East. Illegal in the United States since 2914, heroin is but one of the habit-forming derivatives of the lovely but deadly poppy plant.<\/p>\n

Heroin may look like a tarry black blob or white or brown powder, explains WebMD. Sometimes called horse, smack or junk, heroin can hook you after just one or two experiments. Addiction means you can’t stop yourself from using. When you run out, you feel sick and will do anything to get more. Some users smoke or snort heroin; others inject it into their veins. Any way heroin is taken is dangerous. Because the drug is illegal, the threat of arrest is always present. Dirty needles can spread diseases such as HIV, and hepatitis C. Overdose is an ever-present danger of heroin use. Fortunately, compassionate heroin rehab is only a phone call away.<\/p>\n
