People are different about drugs and their use. Someone considers this acceptable behavior, someone is as impatient to dependence (addiction) in any form. Often, drug use like heroin is described in terms of weakness, cowardice, moral escapism and sin. Much less often, we can hear a positive attitude to the use of such substances. An even more rare opinion is a neutral, professional and balanced attitude towards addictions.

A person with addiction - it does not matter, alcohol or drug - always leaves an imprint on all members of his family. Those who live closer to him fall into co -dependent relationships, which either leave them in the end with an injury that need to be healed or changed irrevocably. In almost all cases, loved ones see two different people: a monster and a native person, although this transformation can have minimal intervals.

The tendency to lies and manipulations is one of the most recognizable features of the psychological portrait of a drug addict in mass culture. Some associate it exclusively with a forced need to hide, others explain the insincerity of “personality degradation”, but one way or another, almost all heroins build a special information bubble around their dependence, in which their loved ones often find themselves along with them.

In the material “Heroin - Property of the model”, remote from the website of “Butenka” at the request of Roskomnadzor, Anna Glazova, known to readers under the name of a feasibility study, casually talked about her mother. After Anna was detained by the police, the correspondent of Samizdat Nina Abrosimova found Galina Glazova.

Usually we think about the family as something that should support the people living in it. But its changes can become that it will destroy you - or, on the contrary, will save. Samizdat “Batenka, you are a transformer” tells the story of two twins, each of which in his own way realized who became a real relatives for them, and saw the story of one person who could live two lives. February in the city of Bobrov turned out to be especially cold and hopeless.
