I just thought I would give a quick heads up warning to anybody that may live in Croydon area.
Read an article this morning warning users that there has been cases of Heroin contaminated with Anthrax in the area so be careful if you are in that area.
 
This might be a silly question.

but this is not the first time Anthrax has been in gear. Do they have any idea how on earth it is getting mixed into heroin?

Surely it can't just be lying about in large amounts to be used as a filler.

Most street heroin comes from Afghanistan, Pakistan and their neighbours, where anthrax is common in animals, and shipped heroin is often cut with other beige powders, such as diatomaceous earth or bone meal that can often contain anthrax spores.

So yes, it's lying about! But not deliberate.

Just generally be careful in Croydon, it's un shithole extraordinaire.
 
As was underlined this week . If you listen to the news.

Fuking tragic . I would love to hear of something good come from what seems to be the arse hole of London
 
Ah I thought Anthrax was a chemical weapon, I didnt realise it could caught from animals, which means its a biological weapon.

So the heroin has been contaminated by animal poo or blood. I thought it was on purpose, like a terrorist attack on junkies. 8) Silly me!

That Tia Sharp story is very sad indeed. :|

yea wer wud ya get the best gear in england. liverpool?? cos i coiusins over der dat are in 2 coke but not gear. i remember getting a quater bak in 09 of sum1 from me town who as a once off got stuff over der, in preston he said. and it was fukin lovely. up der with sum of the best tack ive had. stuff in ireland is shit, the drought really fuked up me gettinm gud gear. plus lost a gud contact too, so im stuck gettin ok stuff. ahh!!!
 
Hi folks havnt posted for a while as the gear has been nothing to shout home about but that still hasnt stopped me from getting into a complete mess with it so just thought id drop in and spread the word

Im just working my arse off, getting home and stopping in bed smoking untill its time to go back to work again. Ive been waiting for a window of opportunity to sweat it out a bit - about 3 weeks ago after a spate of night shifts i was going to ring in sick for a couple of days to try and sort myself out but then all of a sudden due to some internal moves at my organisation i found myself at a job interview and 24 hours later a promotion to what is essentially the assistant managers level in a team of nearly 30 people. Ive managed to plod on since then but i feel really vulnerable now as i have alot of new information and work to get around and although my employers know I have a history of heroin problems, they havnt picked up on my relapse at all and ive been afraid that the rug could disappear from under my feet at any moment with all my bullshit on show for people to see. Thankfully ive manged to stick it so far as im now on annual leave for 11 days - ive spent the weekend tapering my use as much as possible and im now about 30 hour into a total c/t - as shitty as i feel today im still no where near as poorly as ive been in previous years which once again shows how wank the gears been. I was getting pretty good nods on a few weeks ago and id been putting the diminished effects down to tolerance but now it looks like its down to the fact that the kit has just been getting worse again - if today is as bad as the w/d's are going to get then it looks like this had done me a favour by tapering my use unconciously. I really wish i could just grow up now and sort this out but ive essentially backed myself into a corner where i have no life outside of my job and every day when i leave its just been to easy to go and score when im feeling so burnt out and tired, rather than facing upto the rattle and productive sobriety :(
 
Stay strong Steve. It's very natural to party hard when you are working so hard, just got and try find a balance. I'm in a similar situation, just started a new job and that has coincided with me using everyday for the last 10...so it's getting bad again. Anyway fella, use the time off well and beware the boredom as well. Get exercising if you can!
 
Cheers backroll, although i wouldnt exactly describe my behaviour as hard partying, more like the worst kind of anti social junkyism thats almost to boring and pathetic to describe - ive become so withdrawn since splitting up with my partner in feb Ive left myself in a position where i no friends or anyone else outside of work to speak of or too. The olympics havnt helped either - as a massive fan of 5live (the no1 accompaniment to my 10 year addiction) its been to easy to toot and bong away while listening to the games. Its the summer - i should be out raving or at a festival (I live about 2 miles away from the Staffordshire VFestval site) but the main consequence of my current drug abuse is that i just cant be arsed to do... anything
 
Sounds like you're pretty much in the same boat as me Steve. I've lost most of my mates after continually lunching them out to stay in and smoke/shoot the gear. The only person I speak to on a regular basis is my missus, without her I'd be a very lonely man.

I'm currently trying to sort this out by working on my fitness, doing a lot more exercise than what I normally would. Once I get upto a certain level I'm gonna take up a martial art. Maybe I'll make some new friends, as long as they don't all know I'm a junkie (I live in a very small town and word gets around). On the other hand this positive front could just be that I've spunked all my money and am waiting for payday. This seems to be an ongoing vicious circle for me.

I can also identify with you when you say that you're less ill than what you expected to be. For me, I think the fear of being ill is worse than the actual illness itself. Recently I've been absolutely fine when coming off gear and onto Subutex and thats gotta be coz the gear is WEAK. I used to get terrible night sweats and chills and used to puke my guts up but now I'm pretty much fine ? Even more reason to quit, but then it's too easy to carry on with it in the hope that it'll improve !! Why can't I just leave the shit alone !
 
God knows how cut the stuff is around here nowadays.

Just been reading recommended doses for pure heroin hydrochloride.
Apparently 1 gramme is enough to provide between thirty and fifty decent hits.

1 gramme of bashed base off the street would do about six if I'm lucky.

Doing the maths. That must make the bash on our streets @ around 15% heroin.

1 gramme costs 80 quid @ 85% bash = £533 per gramme of heroin.
At least we only pay £94 per gramme of caffeine/cut/bash. :|

(I think that's right). My maths is rusty and I aint got the time to work it all out properly
 
Hi Papaversom! :) Hope you got your permit sorted! I have never travelled out of Ireland since i've been on methadone but its something that i often wondered about. Enjoy your holiday, i'm sure you'll have a ball!

Hi Cazamac! :) Hope your keeping well! Your doing great at staying off the gear, fair play to you! Heroin quality is very up & down so your deffo doing the right thing!

Hi Steve! :) Great news to hear that you have got a promotion in work! Well done you! That is a big positive in your life, they must think a lot of you in work! I think most people on this thread can understand what you are going through when you say you have cut yourself off from friends coz of your heroin use. My BF & i have done the very same thing, a lot of people on this thread have. :(

It only really hit me that i'd pushed away all my mates when the drought suddenly happened, there was no gear & no mates. I really regret it now coz friends are important. But Steve you always come across as a top bloke on here so i'd imagine that you'd have no problems making new friends. Also maybe its not too late to win back one or two of your old friends, maybe send them a text or a message on Facebook, maybe some of them will understand if your honest with them? But its probably best to only open up to people who you really trust. Your only human, you made mistakes with your mates, most things can be fixed!

You know you have loads of mates on Bluelight, i know that its not quite the same but there is always someone on here to chat to! Take care of your self mate! :)
