First, "addictive" need a pre-fix when talking about drugs: physical, mental or both.
Second, as already stated, the guy has a problem with heroin which is a rather nasty drug from everything I have heard.
Third, pot seems not to cause physical addiction; however, pot can cause psychological addiction. You need to remember that anything can cause psychological addiction though, ANYTHING. I'm addicted to a good number of thing: video games, the gym, masturbation, porno, food, ect. Those addictions are all psychological, except food. I go batshit when I don't eat enough food.
Regarding the original poster, I would try to get away from anything that reminds you of your old lifestyle or causes you to want to pick-up the habit. I said "lifestyle" instead of "habit", because heroin use is a lifestyle and one that does destroy lives. I would suggest that you try to find an addiction that will somewhat replace your heroin addiction. The addiction needs to be something that is relatively benign, has
minor psych withdrawl and keeps your thoughts away from heroin. I'm a personal fan of video games as my addiction of choice, but an instrument, craft, project, hobby or pet (depending on how responsible you feel) could all be possible alternatives.
Caveat to my post: I have never been physically addicted to any drug (food aside) in my 18 years on this earth. I don't know what withdrawl feels like, and I don't pretend to know how rough it is. My advice is simply what psych classes have taught me and what my own common sense / intuition suggests. Take all advice at your own risk.
