As a recovering alcoholic (26 years sobriety) my story is alcohol abuse was the gateway. When I was 20 and already abusing booze I took a job in a hospital pharmacy. Within days I was stealing and abusing Demerol, cocaine, Quaalude, you name it. Fortunately I wasn't caught and I quit my job after 6 months, but the floodgates had opened and I continued to abuse drugs and alconol until I finally quit both. Heroin was not readily available to me , thank God. Also meth use was not widely popular. Through the grace of God I am sober and straight today.

You dodged a major bullet. I’m seeing some horrific addictions to prescription stuff.
