What's with junkies drinking Yops all the time?

Does it help the heroin come down or what?

I know some are real scumbags but honestly they are more to be pitied. They bring more misery on themselves and their families than they do to most victims. I'm not excusing them or their crimes but they don't even enjoy the drugs when it gets in on them

They cost the state a fortune in them being non productive idiots who will amount to nothing for their entire lives, they should have an option to check in by pressing a red button to wipe them out, bury them at sea.

It's not Yop in those little cartons , it's their methadone. Stops Gardai hassling them.

Definitely not. Methadone is giving in the clinic in the morning. They drink it in front of the medic & don't get to take any with them. The daily dose is so small it can fit in a shot glass. Even if they managed to steal a bottle they wouldn't be sipping it all day.

Erm , I was joking .
I work now in homeless services and previously in drug services .
I work more mainly with heroin addicts with a good few being chronic rough sleepers.
Its possible to get your methadone as a takeaway where you don't have to take it in front of a medic.

The yop being drank is to allay constipation , opiates block up the bowels.

I have historically seen a lot of them drink lucozade. I always thought they were using it to drink alcohol (because of the packaging). Must be the Sugar. Although Lucozade is ruined now.

Do junkies get dole or do they just rob old ladies for money to buy drugs?

Both, though the robbing isn’t exclusively of old women they are just the easiest targets.

It is that and has been said heroin messes the stomach up so this is kind of like relief to them too. My brother must drink at least 2 litres of milk a day.

I assumed methadone would be injected too, you drink it?

Yeah it’s a medicine that from my experience of being around dozens of junkies doesn’t really do anything. Even my brother who is the biggest junkie scumbag piece of shít i’ve ever known sells his weekly dose of doctor prescribed methadone that he has been getting for years and uses the money to buy more heroin. And the people he sells it to either sell it on to someone else or take it in between heroin fixes because they are all hopeless junkies too.

They're basically status symbols.

And they'll spend a whole weeks dole to buy a stolen pair.

They are probably drinking fortisip, which is a nutritional supplement used for malnutrition - it looks similar to a yop bottle

That was in my head too.

But i remember rte interviewed a junkie saying how hard life was on the streets. "I don't always buy heroin.. sometimes i buy soup"

Jet Black

Is it Forisip? Its a high calorie drink that looks like a Yop bottle. Probably given free to stop malnutrition.

It's unrelated to the topic but I passed a guy curled up on his side sleeping in an alleyway at 7 in the morning, wearing the brand new Yeezys, I think they were going for around €750 at the time. They could have been knock offs or he might not have been homeless just drunk or high. But I was wondering what was going on there.

Yop salesman.

Yer Da sells Avon

I'm quite fond of milk-based drinks... I brought a six-pack of strawberry Mooju to a house party one night.

Not so fond of heroin though.

Lovely? :eek:

Expensive alright but there's a reason nobody I know has bought a pair of airbubbled runners since they were 12 years old. Junktastic!
