Heroin is a highly addictive street drug and chemical depressant that is derived from morphine, but often mixed with other sometimes unknown substances. Extracted from the seed pods of the Asian poppy or opium plant, morphine alone is incredibly strong and is often prescribed by physicians as a powerful pain killer.

The inspiring ones show the courage that men and women have been able to muster up in order to fight the ill effects of this debilitating addiction, and how they somehow pulled through and recovered fully.
