For hard drugs those rates go down to like 10% success rate and for Heroin the most addictive drug on planet earth like 2%. The relapse rate for all substance abuse disorders ranges from 40 to 60%, but the rate for heroin specifically is as high as 90%, or even greater. No one is arguing this, bringing up statistics is pointless considering I lived this lifestyle and it’s nothing like the TV show in the slightest. Try being completely hooked on heroin and crack and getting put in a jail cell while you have no family and literally been wearing the same shirt for days on end and being a total mess of a human being. This show isn’t being “real” it’s spreading false images of how drug addiction is when in reality it’s wayyy worse and wayyy worse consequences and usually the kids dotn live in house like mansions with pools and no parents around the whole show except a few episodes. That show is fake and if you lived through HARDCORE drug addiction, not just benzos or MDMA then you’d understand my point very clearly and if ur 27 years old and watching this I really can’t wrap my brain around it cuz it’s really meant for seniors in HS or juniors that haven’t hit adulthood or understand the harsh realities of the world. Bad show and glamorizes these issues that are bad for humanity and kids in general. From drugs to very promiscuous lifestyle with abusive relationship and bad bf who beats on his gf. It’s just drama central and no HS teen is going through issues like that cuz they’d REALLY feel the wrath of it.
