Heroin Addiction Support Group

I am worried for my sister. I know she is on drugs, most likely heroin. My family and I are trying to plan an intervention. Has anyone ever tried one? If so, any tips/advice would be appreciated. Even though my family is trying to help, I feel alone in this. I will be thankful for anything anyone can say about this. Even if it is not about what I have addressed. Example, if there is something not commonly known about heroin/opiate use. I have researched the topic but the internet can only give so much. I guess I am thinking of things on a more personal note. Thanks.

Just show them my previous posts sweet. My partner died a month ago from 15 years of heroin use. He overdosed twice; once revived in december; once died. That is it, all I have to cling on is a box of his ashes and he was the most safest user of all. He knew his limit, just got a bad batch mixed with pot, drinks and valium. Show this to your sister. Her life is not worth this shit. She is special (as all people are), beautriful. If the world overwhelms her, step 1 is to get off the crap. Stephen was on methadone for 7 years. He detoxed off that (and pot) last november. For 2 months we all had a clean, beautiful, gentle boy with us - that is until the dealers haunting him got too much. My advice - dont get angry (this is what I did). Get active. Heroin is an illness like no other. Get her into rehab. Hold her through the detox. Stroke the back of her neck - it helps. IMPORTANTLY make sure she is in a proper rehab after detox. Stephen never had a chance as his detox was so crap. I tried to get him to rehab but where I live it was a LONG wait. I had a CAT team see him - but they could only come for 2 weeks. Detox is steo 0 - the rehab (however long it takes) is the important part. Now, if I knew he would die, I would sell everything I own, to get him there. Rehab means a long time - I was told 12 months in Stephen's case of not working but getting better. Please show her this letter. My soulmate who would walk over coals for me in any other way is in a box (cremated). He was the most populat person in his area but after 15 years it was TOO late. He used to always tell me, 'my brain is forever fucked, I wish I met u earlier.' It was too late for him - even though he laughed at me when I would be scared he would die - he promised he would never leave me alone here - and yet I am alone. It is NOT TOO LATE for your sister. Please ASK her to take something from my beuatiful Stephen's story. ASK her to be brave and to fight this killer. This is the best intervention you can give - love, patience and unwavering support.
