Qute Kaye on drug addiction, recovery

When Ivan Kawuma, popularly known as Qute Kaye woke up one morning all drenched in sweat but shivering at the same time he knew he was sick. Other symptoms such as nausea, headache and hunger but with no appetite got him more worried and prompted him to immediately call someone.

However, when his ‘friend’, who had introduced him to heroin said he only needed more of it to feel better, Kaye knew he had messed up. Although it was just his third time using heroin, he could no longer live without it.

Start of addiction
Kaye says it all started with taking one beer, then two, three, and with time, more. When he became the ambassador of a beer company, he would just take without abandon. Someone later introduced him to cigarettes, saying if taken with beer, it would give him the best feeling in the world. He was then introduced to marijuana, which he was told would make him feel even better.
