Aug. 11, 2023 – Coco said if there were people around her, people she could spend time with and do activities with, there would be fewer chances for her to continue using.
“You know how they have like (big) brothers, sisters? They should have that for adults. There’s a lot of people here who don’t have family, so if they don’t have somebody like that, that won’t actually help people,” Coco said referring to the role caseworkers and support systems currently play.
Another woman nearby, Mya, said her addiction began with curiosity.
“Fentanyl was something new, like nobody really knew what it was, so we (her boyfriend and she) were curious and wanted to try,” she said.
Mya would previously use with her boyfriend, but he was recently sent to jail. Since he’s been gone, Mya feels more unsafe when using.
