Heroin addict: ‘You either going to be high, or dead’

Who Decides? –

February 29th 2020 – “It depends on how potent the dope is. And around here, ain’t pretty. It ain’t potent. People who OD and stuff that like, they’re reckless.”

Life for Lagenna has been tough. Speaking with producer Matt Spurrier for The Core documentary, she said that addiction has been a part of her life even when she was unaware of it, “my mom used to do drugs, but we didn’t know. We didn’t know until we was grown, and realized like, oh, our mom did dope.” She describes her journey with addiction bluntly. “I’ve been using off and on since I was 20 I dibbled and dabbled in powder. I had preeclampsia, and so I got prescribed Percocets, and um, but it was only for like two months.”
