"First time I had it was at a friend's house on a Saturday evening. It had been planned beforehand to get me stoned (unable to behave normally), which I was rather angry at first. (2) I only smoked it when I was offered it at big parties.
At first it was just like smoking a cigarette but getting a pleasant effect as well. I kept laughing.(3)But in the end I was excited about taking it. Then I met somebody who said they could get the stuff real easy. My friends started coming to me for it. Then this person started getting heavy. He wanted me to startsniffing other things, but I refused. I know what other drugs do to people. No way would I inject anything.(4)It only takes two weeks of heroin, two or three times a week, to be addicted."
Police inspector James said, "That's the way these kids often get hooked. The 'hard' drug pushers start them on something like marijuana and then say, "Why don't you just sniff a bit of this" or "Just put a bit of this in your drink," and before they know it, they're hooked on heroin, cocaine or amphetamines.(5) I think that’s disgusting.
