Amy Fry writes from the UK. She summarizes recent evolutions in heroin addiction and studies depicting a trend in heroin use shifting from younger addicts to older longer term addicts often dealing with post acute withdrawal syndrome (PAWS). Veteran heroin addicts have a very tough time walking away. She talks about acting sensation, Russell Brand, a former UK addict who keeps his own ongoing vigilance amidst thoughts of past use. He has a wealth of personal experience to share with the world on his opiate addiction. Much of Amy’s statistical data comes from the National Treatment Agency for Substance Misuse (NTA).
