Peaches Geldof

I`m quite surprised that this is the verdict (if correct). It`s such a shame that history has repeated itself. http://www.independent.ie/woman/celeb-news/peaches-geldof-died-from-heroin-overdose-30234230.html

She may have overdosed deliberately due to depression.
I don't suppose anyone will ever know the whole truth.

Ni
addicts are pretty single minded about getting drugs and injecting them

(or else they wouldnt be addicts, they would be casual users )

[naomi24]

I know .... I just don't understand why she went there in the first place. So sad.

[sherrardk]

Little point second guessing her actions. Poor girl is gone now.

[Daffy6543]

I've known a few Peter, there are places to inject that you wouldn't think of.
Having had morphine in a hospital setting I can see the attraction to heroin, I believe they are very similar but i've never taken heroin so don't know for certain. The feeling you get from morphine is very pleasant.
Funny though, the second time I was given it I kept throwing up so had to have something else instead for my pain relief.

You don`t have to inject heroin. It can be freebased. That doesn`t leave any trace.

The memory of her mother Paula's drug use cast a dark shadow over her life. Even with a nice husband and 2 lovely sons, she just had to keep on using heroin which has a "vice like" grip on the users.

[ummmm]

I know a few heroin addicts and they smoke it.

[joko]

I also know a few and they toot it, not inject

it can be injected pretty much ANYWHERE - eyeballs, under nails, gums, armpits etc etc - just because someone doesnt have the cliched arm full of tracks, doesnt mean they dont use
in fact most will avoid the arm area as its the most obvious
