It’s incredibly difficult to
taper off heroin for the most part because it requires a degree of self control that most addicts do not possess, otherwise we would not be faced with the trying to quit in the first place. I think it could be possible if you have a strong enough reason motivate to you. A heroin taper is one solution for those who can not afford to go to conventional
drug rehab. It will be very hard to do and is literally impossible for most heroin addicts. If you can afford to go to treatment I would suggest that you do that because there you will stand a much better chance of getting and staying clean. The reason for this is that you will be exposed to other addicts that are going through the same thing as you. Plus you will be learning how to remain clean from residential treatment by attending lectures, 12 step meetings, and several other recovery based things.
How to taper off of heroin
If you insist on the
heroin taper my suggestion is to do it as fast as possible do not draw it out. We are addicts after all and drawing it out will just keep you using. I would suggest cutting your dose back maybe try diluting your dose to the point that it is just enough to get through
heroin withdrawal. Or maybe cut your consumption back by doing less; for instance, if you do 3 bags a day cut back to 2 a day. Remember you must do this fast if you want to succeed. I would try to do it in 3 to 5 days tops. Here’s the thing no matter which way you choose to
stop using heroin it will require a commitment. Why not make a commitment to quit heroin right now? It will probably be the best move you ever make.
