The Impact of Heroin Addiction
Heroin, a highly potent opioid, creates intense euphoria followed by rapid physical dependence and harmful brain changes. Prolonged use alters judgment, deepens cravings, and exposes individuals to risks such as overdose, infection, and long-term health decline.
Because withdrawal symptoms can be severe, attempting to quit alone often leads to relapse. Professional outpatient care offers the structure, safety, and tools necessary for lasting recovery.
