what is the average age of an opiophile?

Me: 26, with four opiated years behind me. In recovery now,
with nearly 4 weeks clean time. What a f*cking waste...



I have spoken online with many opiophiles, and they generally seem to
be somewhat older(38+) than the average drug user. I'm wondering
why this is? Is it because the monkey is so hard to get off your
back, or is it because dope is the only drug that will still do the
'trick'...?



Oh, and I use 'opiophile' as a euphemism for opiate addict....
