The occasion overdose also attracts more users because it gives the impression of potent, high quality heroin.
Is that really the case? Do people think "Oh my god, that stuff almost killed me, must be good stuff -- give me some more!"
- stronglikedan 8y agoYes. One of my best friends was an addict and died by Fentanyl OD. That is exactly how she thought.

And heroin is really expensive. So imagine someone who is extremely frugal buying expired food. Only cranked up to 10.
- yayadarsh 8y agoYes, and this is commonly documented and reported behavior from many first-person accounts of inner-city drug dealers.
