Heroin addiction starts when you can't stop using the drug no matter how often you try to quit. After you use the opiate 4 times in a row, your body becomes physically addicted to it.

When you use heroin, it seems like an instant cloud nine effect. No pain and complete euphoria. That is what makes the drug so very addictive. After using it 4 times, you become sick when you don't use it-nausea, muscle cramps, runny nose, migraines, and twitching.
