Northwoods Haven: We Overcome Together
Heroin is an illicit opioid derived from morphine that rapidly activates the brain’s reward system. It’s commonly injected, smoked, or snorted, and appears as a powder or as black tar. Because street potency varies, the risk of overdose is high, especially with fentanyl in the supply.
The side effects of heroin range from short-term drowsiness and slowed breathing to severe complications like respiratory depression, infections, and fatal outcomes. With ongoing use, tolerance and physical dependence develop, and withdrawal brings muscle aches, insomnia, and intense cravings.
At Northwoods Haven, we tailor care to your needs with therapies that support your healing journey. Our program helps you make steady progress with a team that understands the challenges of recovery.
Breaking free from substance abuse means easing withdrawal, steadying mood, and rebuilding everyday structure.
