Julie (name changed) is a former drug user in Manipur, currently undergoing rehabilitation. The 32-year-old mother of two recalls how addiction took over her life
When did you start using drugs?
I have been taking drugs for almost eight years. I started when I was in a low phase, after I had separated from my husband.
How did you manage to buy them ?
After getting addicted, I started peddling drugs. I also got involved with sex work to earn money.
Do you regret getting involved with drugs?
Yes, it was the greatest mistake of my life. I have lost sight in my left eye, due to chronic drug use. Also, because of my addiction, my children are away from me. They are staying in a children's home run by the government.
