I'm reasonably active on /r/stopdrinking and it's one of the most positive corners of my life. I've taken a few cats that I've met on there to their first meeting. I find /r/opiates very interesting: recovery mixed with active usage mixed with harm reduction. A very interesting scene that can definitely appeal to the active user way more than a sub with "stop" right in the title.
- digler999 11y agoI'm pretty sure there is an /r/opiaterecovery or similar forum. Overall I think opiates is a good subreddit, because obviously with an addiction that strong there are going to be many people who refuse/aren't ready to quit. I've hung out there for a few weeks, and I will say when someone posts "about to try Heroin the first time, any tips?" many of them will try to dissuade them from ever starting. And the people who post who are going through withdrawals and posting the lurid details of what life is really like as a heroin addict also serve as an indirect influence on others.
