Actually no pussy, we're waiting til we're further on in our recovery programs. :)
 
I have heard that IV cocaine is nothing like snorting it, so that's a drug that seems to be completely different depending on ROAs.

This is true and i didn't believe it myself until i found out the hard way just how addictive and completely self destructive IV cocaine really is. I had always preferred smoking crack over snorting the stuff anyway because crack is also a hell of a rush and unlike with snorting coke i could usually manage to sleep that night and eat breakfast in the morning. Snorting coke would keep me feeling coked up but not in a good way for too long. I thought that IV coke would be no more addictive then smoking crack but holy fuck was i wrong :( . It's a totally different beast when IVed and the rush is ungodly although not terribly euphoric. It's just all rush and as soon as id get the needle out of my arm i would be throwing more coke in the spoon to suck up another shot. After 2 weeks of shooting coke and often speedballing it with morphine i was completely fucked to the point where i was actually scaring people that actually gave a shit about me because i was acting so mental and so fucked up that more then 1 person thought i was going to die. It took a few months for my moods to level out again so yeah i would not recommend IV coke to anyone as the high if you can call it that is certainly not worth the torture of coming down off it. Though i must admit speedballs are awesome and much better then either drug alone they are also really fucking dangerous.

With opiates the only one i won't take any other way besides IV is hydromorphone. The rush from IV hydromorphone is something else entirely and is very compulsive compared to say morphine even. It's not completely different like with coke but the high only lasts maybe 30 minutes and the rush for maybe 5 minutes if you do a decent shot. I always call hydromorphone the crack of opiates due to how compulsive and short acting it is. Snorting it lasts alot longer but in the 3 years or so i have been IVing i started out with hydromorphone and have not taken it any other way since.
 
I tried to inject midazolam last week, didn't work. Didn't have the right size needle, the one I had was a little big. Stupid of me though, but the drug cravings... I'm thankful my arm is still here and functioning. I also have a huge benzo tolerance.
 
Entheo,
Did you really experience a rush when you IV'd Dextroamphetamine? I ask because I never did, though I only tried it in rather low dosages (never above 30mg).

Yeah I actually got a huge rush the first time I banged it. But of course I did roughly 130 mg IV and I had a high stimulant tolerance at the time. It made me feel like super man though, I can tell you that for sure.
 
I too call hydromorphone the crack of opioids. Dont try speedballs with coke and dilaudid. Worst track marks ive ever had and better have a ton of rigs as pretty much evert 30 min i was loading another shot...
 
I have shot up OxyContin once, Heroin maybe 40 times, and Heroin and Cocaine together once. Obviously the rush is amazing. But I hated how my veins would hide from me and I'd have to spend sometimes up to 45 minutes finding a vein to hit after a weekend binge. There's nothing like a fresh needle with some primo opiates, but for me it's only an every now and then treat, I don't like the effects of continued usage of needles, I would prefer to swallow my drugs. Plus it ups your tolerance like a MFer. Only saves you money for a very short period of time. So overall I'd so no, I'm not into needles. (which I understand is rare for a die-hard opiate addict).
 
Well, I have a few times, but no I generally do not ever shoot up. I hate needles so much. Stabbing my veins is just grimy. No thanks. The rush is awesome, but I just can't bring myself to do it. Guess I got lucky in that sense, I'll continue snorting my drugs.
 
RIGS OR GTFO!!! Im only kidding. Props to those who arent hooked to the needle after giving it a shot (pun intended). I know that there is a close link between addiction and speed-of-onset of drug effects (smoking>injection>snorting>plugging>oral) so thats why more people have more addiction potential to smoking crack or IV cocaine vs. Snorting coke. The instant gratification significantly impacts the reward pathways in the brain.

Ahhh, okay, I see now.

I remember when I was much younger and wayyy more wreckless, I would try and inject the adderall XR beads. I somehow managed to get some huge dosage in (around 100mg), and when I shot it up I felt like I was going to have a hard attack. It was one of the truly most frightening experiences I've had, almost up there with my IV cocaine OD's. Since i was in such a panic I wasn't really able to discern whether I felt a rush or ot, I just knew I was in danger. Since that expirament, I tried shooting max ammounts of 30mg, and never felt much of anything but an instantaneous onset. However, even if there was a rush, I've become really fond of the effects of rectal Dextroamphetamine/Adderall, so I don't think I would trade it. IV stim use just makes me nose dive straight into the ground, so I'm kind of greatful that I never got much out of injecting these things.

A little off topic, but I read an old bluelight (I believe) thread which explained the reason for the ever sought out bellringer from IV coke. Supposedly it's caused by such a massive release of dopamine that you temporarily experience level three tinnitus. What I've always wondered is why similar drugs (MDPV, Mephedrone, Methylphenidate) don't cause this effect. I once did accidentally catch a slight ringer when I made a mistake and shot wayy too much PV, but it really wasn't the same. It more felt like all the noise in the room has been sucked out through some huge vacuum, but unlike coke (where the sound comes roaring back in huge metallic waves), my hearing just slowly returned to normal. dangeros and NASTY shit.

Don't shoot Midaz, I used to bang it daily after oral methadone it got me badly addicted, I got a mental rush 1-3 times then it was more and more and no rush just no recollection
 
IV is my prefered ROA, used to be scared of needles until the first time I shot heroin and it was fucking amazing. Got pretty addicted for a while. Now all I shoot up is cocaine and dilaudid when its around.

About two weeks ago, I started shooting very small amounts of dope for the first time. Sort of like "practicing" and after the first couple of times I've gotten better. A friend who shoots, who I learned from by watching over the past 9 months or so, sat down with me and showed me what I was doing wrong, discussed what I've been doing right, etc.

My tolerance is a bit higher than I expected, but I do get a rush and it gives my nose a break. Live with my mother and she can't believe how "sniffly" I've been this summer... However, the spoon I've been using and hiding seems to have disappeared today. Wonder if she found it. Wonder if she knows anything? Wonder if she's just clueless? I should check the dishwasher, just occurred to me that it's the only place I haven't checked yet...

Bought 10 insulin needles and so far have used 9 of them.

Turns out I don't mind needles that much as I have a tendency to be a picker/popper/digger when it comes to my skin and stuff. Really gross, I know. Really bad habit. Really embarrassing. Lots of scars. Generally, it's mostly on my back and legs. So no one can see.

I totally understand it's a stress relief OCD/anxiety thing and I really have to get it under control. But yeah, I guess digging around my pores with a sewing needle attacking zits and ingrown hairs and stuff is probably much worse than using a sterilized small needle to poke into a vein and pour a bit of dope.

I am going to NOT make a habit of this. We'll see what happens, but I think I'm in Recky's camp and am going to continue snorting my drugs too....

I've been thinking more and more about, well, taking a stab at it -- pun intended -- but I just know that I could never bring myself to do it. It's not so much that I have a needle-phobia, but I'm just not sure that I would ever go back to sniffing it, not after experiencing "the rush."

But my girlfriend would never let it go down anyway. We sort of follow a few unwritten, but nonetheless agreed-upon rules:

1.) We split everything 50/50. So if we pick up six bags, for example, then we each get three, and if we pick up five bags, then we each get two and a half. (We always dump the bags out first and then split the powder into two or more equal lines, as sometimes the bags are inconsistent and all different sizes; the idea is to prevent one of us from getting really fat bags and the other getting really small bags.)

2.) We only do dope when we're together. It's for two reasons, really: first, we believe that it's good harm reduction, as, if one of us were to fall out, the other would be able to call for help -- hopefully. The other reason? Well, it helps to keep us from breaking rule number one. If we were to begin using separately, well, then we might be tempted to score when we're alone and without telling the other.

3.) No needles. Neither one of us is convinced that we could handle it, and we're both fairly sure that we would never go back to sniffing our dope, which we both really like doing. So, either the feeling would be too amazing, and we'd never go back to sniffing our dope which, frankly, is a bit more convenient than shooting up. Or, one of us would fall out or something, which would not be good.

So, yeah, no needles is kind of our thing.

Not to rain on your parade but i tried this with numerous girlfriends and each time we both ended up getting high on our own. Or one person doesnt have money and the other wants to score, etc. Using and relationships always failed FOR ME.
 
i used to shoot coke now i just snort it but last night i almost went and bought some rigs. so glad i didn't tho
