The Drug Use Began
Cobain suffered from constant stomach pains that no doctor he had visited had been able to diagnose or find the root cause of. As a result, Cobain turned to regular use of heroin to relieve the pain. In Cobain’s diary, there’s an entry where he said that since he felt like a junkie he decided he might as well go ahead and be one. November 1990 marked the first of Cobain’s heroin injections. Cobain was no stranger to drug use, having used marijuana, LSD and even inhaled aerosol can fumes.
