Help me understand........

DaveyArm · Newbie

I have a friend living with me who is a pretty heavy cocaine user (she smokes and injects off and on pretty much all the time she is awake), and is just recently off Heroin, thanks to Suboxone, which really is all they say it is. For about 2 months, I have been smoking with her now and then. Specifically, I will do 4-8 hits over a 3-4 hour period, then nothing for perhaps a day or two, then repeat the 4-8 hits over a 3-4 hour period. I do this only at night, in a "social" setting with her-----I've never smoked alone, or in between the sessions I've just described.

It doesn't feel like an addiction to me, it feels more like a now and then recreational thing. Question: am I kidding myself? Or am I already addicted, even though the frequency and amount is reasonably low?

I'd appreciate some opinions and/or similar experiences.
Thanks

The key requirement to becoming an addict is simply choosing to use that first time.

Recreational roaller coaster to he|l ! Totally not worth the risk!

Kidding yourself, or not you are playing a dangerous game with your future.
Consider not USING after your next 2-3 day dry spell.

Can you? ...

and for how long?
