Thirty-year-old Heidi has a middle-class exterior, but underneath the surface she is trying to get rid of opioid addiction. It’s easier said than done.
Tace these would be, Heidi says and digs out a square hand mirror, a turquoise whistle and three empty Subutex medicine packages from his Marimekko backpack onto the table.
The accessories are the holy trinity that has made Heidi’s life an opioid-fueled squirrel’s wheel for years. Numerous times he has crushed a Subutex pill, sprinkled the crumbs in a line on the mirror and sucked them up his nose with a straw.
