Hey guys I’d love to hear if anyone has any tools or hacks that come in handy when doing meth. For example hand warmers! Keep you some hand warmers and some ace bandage and anytime you miss a shot put a hand warmer on it and wrap the ace bandage and you’ll be good to go! So does anyone else have anything like this? Maybe a really cool lighter you’ve found, or a pipe that hits better than all the other ones you’ve tried.
Be prepared for anything. If you think it might be useful on your adventure, take it. You never know when or what you’ll need.
Have a locking kit to prevent mysterious disappearances and walkaways.
NextDistro.org and Nasen.org both provide resources/links to syringe exchange services and often will ship you the supplies needed. This includes Narcan/Naxolone. Keep one on hand at all times.
Always have a mg scale to check your weight before driving off from your plug. Keep your plug straight or someone from skimping on your bag. Be polite and respectful but don’t take any shit. It’s a good way to get scammed.
Needle too long? Take the needle cap, compare it side by side to the needle, mark the length you need, and cut the cap with sharp scissors. Slip the cap back on and into place and voila, your ½” needle is now 5/16”.
Never let your stash out of eyesight.
Never let someone else prepare your shot or let it out of your eyesight. You need to know exactly what is in it at all times to prevent mishaps or regrettable/dangerous situations.
Never bust out your full stash in front of someone.
When you finish using, immediately put your stash away and double-check that all materials are gone. I promise, at some point, you’re going to question whether you put everything away or not. So do it right the first time and all the time to prevent doubt.
Amazon.com for any supplies or tools you can’t get from the exchange. Amazon has a tool for EVERYTHING from borosilicate straws and sniff kits to needles and safety supplies if you know what to search for. I keep a running shopping list of everything I have bought and what I want to buy in order to save time and effort. Saves you from being embarrassed walking into the pharmacy or public to buy your sharps.
Not at home or need a clean workspace? Keep a 3x3 mini tarp folded up in your kit as a makeshift work area.
Pack up anything and everything you think you might need for your journey. Nothing is worse than needing something and not being prepared.
When it comes to supplies, overdo it. You’re going to run through more than you think and will probably end up waiting on delivery at some point. So stay ahead and always order before you're out. Ideally ¾ of the way or so.
Can’t find a vein?
Take a hot shower
Exercise or workout (specifically your arms)
Stay hydrated
Swing your arm in a circular motion so centrifugal force pushes your blood into your arm. This plumps the veins.
Use a rubber or elastic tourniquet. You want it loose enough to let blood in under pressure but tight enough to linger in your vein to cause it to swell. ALWAYS release before injecting your full shot.
Use a flashlight pressed into your arm to see your veins, if needed take a pen or marker and mark out several points to try. Never inject directly over the spot, it’s only a guide so always go slightly to the side after using an alcohol swab.
Use the smallest gauge needles you possibly can (the higher the gauge, the smaller the needle bore). This reduces trauma to your skin, marking, bleeding, bruising, and other damage to your body.
You get the same rush whether it's a “thick shot or thin,” a few seconds of pushing extra solution in will not greatly impact your rush or its onset but it will corrode and damage your veins causing them to disappear faster.
Before preparing your shot, slide the plunger up and down several times in the barrel to lubricate the barrel and prevent the plunger from getting stuck or needing too much force to inject.
Can’t find a plug? Download Grindr, spring for the extra subscription, and start hunting. Gays love their drugs, I guarantee you’ll find a supply before the end of the week much less the month.
Anytime you meet a new plug, save their info. There will come a time when your main plug is inevitably unavailable or disappears and you will be in need of an alternate source. Periodically buy from your backup plug to maintain lines of communication. That said, plug loyalty is great…but it must be earned.
Don't promise or offer anyone anything and don’t let anyone do the same for you. It's a good way to “owe” someone.
Always pay for your supply upfront, and never take it on credit or loan. There will come a day when you can’t pay up or something happens and bridges will be burned.
Don’t nickel and dime your plug, it’s get annoying as shit to deal with 87 times a day. Be prepared to buy what you’ll go through, not what you THINK you’ll go through. Also, the more you buy, the better the cost per unit…meaning that you get more weight for less overall money.
Have residue in your baggie you can get out? Take your filter and get it wet, then using tweezers rub it inside the baggies until the bag is crystal clear. Repeat as needed and add that last little bit of oomph to your hit. Waste not Want not.
Save those little silica packets that come in packages. If you're going to insist on doing cotton shots, either let them dry before closing them up to discourage bacterial growth or put them in a container with a silica gel packet to extract excess moisture.
When in doubt, tap out. If you have any sort of bad feeling or vibe about what's to go down…don’t do it. It’s wise to trust your gut instinct plus feeling safe and secure will make your hit that much better.
I'm sure I have more, I've got tons of tools in my kit if. I'll post it in my profile if you want to look at it. Also, my running shopping list is always available to browse and take ideas from. I've got some pretty cool shit selected and lined up for future purchases. Messages are always open.
