Very scary indeed...
Some kids probably just think "it's just a pill, how bad can that be"
Thanks for sharing that info Blake

Thats A Scary Story. Very Relatable To Mine. I Was Using Oxycontin By The Time I Was A Senior In High School. It Starts With The Mellow Pills Like Darvon, Then, Hydrocodones, The Oxycodones, Fentanyl And Morphine. Heroin Eventually Made Its Way In There. It Was Always Reliable And Good At The Time. I Hate That Stuff, Never Want To See It Again

"One night when Katie was getting sick and desperate, she called a women she'd used OxyContin with before whom she knew also used heroin." Just sub the word mike in there, and that is definately my story as well (only I started with percs, then oc's then H), among pretty much everything else! But for the grace of god...

Hi I'm usually in the Naranon group. My AS was on Oxy's. Started with back pain and then continuned on. Was in jail for grand theft,dealing in stolen property. Not our stuff others, never caught for the stuff he stole from us and pawned for his habit. Got out on parole- and flunked **** test for grass and cocaine. So now back in for vop and had missed his court date for other charges in another county. So has to deal with that. We are sure he was using again. Those drugs are nasty and can ruin a family quickly. Its so hard to trust our own son. At least in jail he is safe warm and straight. Bless you all for staying clean.
