My good friend Art over at Heroin Addiction Help guide wrote a helpful long and rambling post about how to stop using heroin.  I think this is important because I work in a treatment center and it is really alarming to see the number of drug addicts who keep coming in for treatment who are hooked on Heroin these days.  Opiate use is increasing across the board and in fact it is not just Heroin.  People are using prescription painkillers as well and when they run out of those they typically turn to the streets and find themselves trying Heroin for the first time.

Well anyway, my friend Art used to be hooked on dope and he will tell you straight up how to get into recovery and what it is going to be like.  He has been there, done that when it comes to getting off Heroin and I have not experienced that.  So if you or someone you know is having a problem like this, do check him out and take some of his advice.
