I personally think IV is by far the best but yeah definitely don't fix for your first time w/o someone experienced to do it for you or walk you through it. Its definitely tough when you first start. I've been an IV user for over ten years. The first six months of IV use all those years ago I always had my friend do it. Then one time I kept the rig and practiced just learning to register. The first time I actually fixed myself I had a friend who did too to over see it. A lot of people who snort or smoke dope for years that switch sometimes are underwhelmed because they start small, as you should, and they wonder what all the fuss is. Then when they get the hang of it and do a proper shot they all say, "wow, now I understand." but honestly it's tough to go back after IV. Dope is addictive enough and that can push some people to the brink. Chinky is sorta right. I mean I think with IV you can do less. But for me I usually fix three times a day, under ideal circumstances. One wake up, an afternoon and a night one. I feel I have a pretty level head for an addict. I work, I don't steal I don't spend all my money on dope. But a lot has to do with having a script for bups which is a life saver. When I feel things are getting to heavy I switch over to bups and chill and try to save mOney. It's a vicious cycle but tolerable. I know that I'm not getting any younger so eventually I need to get serious about getting clean. My goal is soon to be able to be fully on bup without using dope too and then taper. It's going to be hard because I've been using the bups also for four years!!! When I first started bups I figured a few ninths months but four years later still on em and doing dope. Just goes to show how powerful addiction is. Be safe everyone. Sorry for rambling. Got way high on that gray dope. Home girl has grams of raw for price of jab . Gonna try it out. She says it's so good I could take half of it and cut it and sell it and basically have half a g for free. Well see.
