Of course it's not "easy", but someone with an addictive personality would know early on that they've got the potential for addiction.Its easy to say simply to stop cold turkey but that's not the way it works unfortunately. It requires more than just mental prowness to truely overcome these drugs. Nubain and heroin has physically addictive properties.But the ability to either get addicted, or just walk away from a drug, lies within us. So often, people do blame the drug for their own weakness. I don't think "bad karma" has anything to do with it. The addictive personality was already there, only the drug itself was the tool that was used for the behaviour. You can't blame Nubain for destroying a person's life.One thing people need to realize is that everyone has their demons to battle in life and some are just too hard to overcome. Even the strongest people can't recover from that type of bad karma. DeMayo was especially hit hard because at the same time he had a spat with his wife and ended up in jail. Some people simply never recovered from it like DeMayo and Denise Rutkowski professionally. A lot of pro bodybuilders took it because they thought it could help them train longer and harder but they were really trying to justify it. Sigh, you have to realize that back in the 90's there was a rampant amount of nubain being used. He was selling a lot of this trophies and stuff for drug money.

We knew him from the pictures and the stories of Paul's rise to fame until he reached the pro ranks in 1994, and stopped competing in 1995.
