Karim, 36
From the street to a set of keys
Then
Karim had used heroin since he was twenty. He lost his home, his family stopped speaking to him and he spent years in shelters. He believed there was no way back for someone like him. He had already tried to stop six times.
The turning point
On the seventh attempt he got a counselor who said: we don't start with never again, we start with today. With medical help and steady treatment, things became more stable. He got a room and a daytime program.
Now
Karim has been off heroin for four years. He has his own place, and a set of keys he holds for a moment every day. He works as a peer support worker, helping men who are where he once was. His mother calls him every Sunday. He says: seven attempts. The seventh one counted.
“Relapsing doesn't mean it won't work. It means you're still working on it.”
