WAITING LISTS FOR ADDICTION TREATMENT GROW, AS REGION SEES INCREASE IN
HEROIN USE
Robert, who had used other illegal drugs, fell into heroin addiction
in 2007 when his best friend introduced him to it.

the stigma attached to addiction, injected heroin off and on for about
six months until not using the drug meant withdrawal symptoms.
For Robert, the hook soon wasn't the high.
