But the 35-year-old has allegedly been clean since.Full story: http://bangkok.coconuts.co//2015/01/05/rock-star-pete-doherty-checks-out-rehab-chon-buri-- Coconuts Bangkok 2015-01-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bluespunk Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Won't last with friends who send him smack through the post. Probably at his request. Rest of band in Thailand as well. Wonder who sent it? Edited January 5, 2015 by Bluespunk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post smutcakes Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2015 I am no expert on drug addiction, but if he relapsed in early December after nearly 2 months without, and now we are just 1 month later in early January and he has now 'beaten' his addiction, to me it does not seem like he has much chance sadly. The local BIB's should pay close attention, as their is some decent money to be had here if they watch closely. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaltsc Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) "Rock star Pete Doherty has checked out of a rehab center in Chon Buri after apparently beating his heroin addiction..Doherty’s one relapse into heroin use came when he went to Bangkok in early December." Sounds like the addiction beat him after a short visit to Bangkok. Probably won't be those temptations when he returns to his old environment. I doubt the odds makers in London are giving great odds on him staying clean. Edited January 5, 2015 by jaltsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ldnguy Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Cured? Laughable. It was only last month that he relapsed, so how can he be cured so quickly? Time to dump his friends that send him heroin in rehab. Edited January 5, 2015 by ldnguy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post worgeordie Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2015 Seems like an oxymoron,Thailand and trying to beat Heroin addiction, surely it would be best to go to a country that is not awash with drugs. its a bit like going on a slimming course at a chocolate factory. regards Worgeordie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhamBam Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I'll start to believe he has kicked the habit one year from now. This guy has been 'cured' too many times before in rehab. what he needs is more willpower and better friends / associates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Story filed under 'Ignorance and Apathy", aka the round filing cabinet. Don't know the guy as well and never heard of his band. So unlike you I was curious and did a search, since his name sounded familiar. Looks like I had him mixed up with snooker player Ken Doherty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurkster Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I'm surprised he had the guts to go and score heroin in Bangkok, man what a risky proposition...go to Vientiane or Phnom Penh if you want to do that, but BKK, damn that takes some balls....must have known some people, can't imagine someone like him would be satisfied with crappy quality..

SiSePuede419 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I want to open a detox clinic and call it "The Golden Triangle Detox Clinic For No Talented Wannabee Musicians". The garden will have poppies, each room will have a different theme after a musician who overdosed and a bag of China White or Mexican Black tar under your pillow every night to test your willpower.

retarius Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 No one 'beats an addiction'. The addiction is there for the rest of your life and you take one day at a time sober. Plus methadone is more addiction than heroin....once you get on that shit you never get off. The best chance of having a lengthy time without heroin is to take Subutex.....it is a partial opioid receptor agonist and binds very tightly to the opioid receptors in the brain...heroin cannot dislodge Subutex from the receptors and the patient feels good because the receptors are partially agonised. It cut the accidental death rate from heroin or methadone overdose in France by over 90%. It's also available in combination with naloxone...the combination reduces the abuse potential of Subutex to zero (it was designed by giving it to addicts and asking them how much they would pay....they titrated the dose of naloxone until the street value of the drug was zero). It's wonderful stuff and available generically albeit restrictedly in developed countries. I don;t know it's status in Thailand but rehab without Subutex/Suboxone is pointless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ukrules Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2015 I'm just amazed that they're calling this guy a 'rock star'. He's an ass, nothing more. If he didn't date some model in the UK nobody would ever have heard of him. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
