> personally I lean more in the direction that heroin and friends are significantly more addictive than most other drugs. but I have to say, if there were a sizeable group of recreational users, they would probably know better than to ever say anything about it in public. Without a doubt, how else do they get introduced/exposed to such temptations otherwise. Pattern that usually follows is, cocaine, then onto doing crack as suddenly in their mind it's cheaper better high or other mental juggling to avoid having a break and carry on chasing that next level of high, building tolerance all the time. Then the comedowns, well whilst the highs may not seem as good and cost more to reach that level the downsides are less easier to adjust tolerance wise. So you find that chasing a line of heroin solves all that nasty crack come down and once in a while, you won't get hooked, after all you are able to do all that crack and your mentally strong and other decisions made whilst completely out of it on crack cocaine. So you make that leap, the odd bit becomes more and year on and your addicted. Coz prices and that, not long before your after that next level, so injecting for many becomes a hurdle that gets lower and more appealing and justified in crossing. You will just do it the once, case of only way to solve your needs as not enough to chase and sort the cramps. I've seen all this play out many times, heck even audio surveillance from chasing to shooting up to introducing new recruits into junkie club, via crack and then heroin. After all, opportunity to sort somebody out and charge them extra for sorting it, kickback from dealer and chance to share a hit - addiction makes people greedy and that greed plays out in doing what's best for them, if others freely bit that apple, they will certainly not stop them that hard. After all, how they themselves started doing drugs. Seen it play out just too many times and from start to coffin too many times and shocking how much goes on, ignored as society as a whole class the addicts as the victims and the dealers as the baddies in a clear cut way when I can attest that the lines are very blurred indeed.
