Drug Use You Have Seen That Goes Against Harm Reduction

I forgot to mention one of the main examples that inspired this thread.

When I first started smoking weed would we buy regs and roll a bunch of joints with it. Well one kid would wait until the joints got down to a little roach, and do what he called a "fireball." I doubt this is a very known practice, so I will explain.

He would hit the end of the joint really hard, and then let go of it and inhale the roach into his lungs. I saw him do 4 in a row one time and it was just nasty, and he wondered why he had such a nasty cough after that. I'm sure it had nothing to do with having a bunch of burnt weed and rolling paper in his lungs though. 8( He ended up dying of a heroin overdose so I will never know if those fireballs did any permanent damage to his lungs, but it's probably safe to assume it did. I'm sure he had at least 20 of them in his lungs, maybe more.
 
My friend Z. We copped some smack and he needed water and filter. Out of desperation, he picked a cigarette filter out of my ashtray and tried using this 2 day old cup in my car which used to be Brisk Raspberry Tea. It was just little water that used to be ice. I begged him not to do that and told him to wait, but he kept going, so I pulled out my cigarette box and gave him my last cigarette so he could use a clean cigarette filter.

This was back in 1999, though that doesn't justify it at all. He was always crazy, so it's not like some random kid that decided to do it. He was fucked from the get go, and we all figured he would end up dead at a young age. He actually got a little better for a minute, but then his mom and gf dropped dead in the same year and he just lost it and got deep into H before overdosing on it.
 
I've never really been suicidal, but I used to have a pretty reckless indifference to my own life/death and I'd mix any combination of drugs I got my hands on. I just wanted to stay high and for a couple years I mostly did. Back then I'd take random unknown assortments of pills...like handfulls and wash them down with full bottles of liquor.

What are some of the worst things that you have seen people do when taking drugs that would go against everything we preach here? I'm not talking about bad things they did while on drugs, or what they did to obtain the drugs. I am talking about stuff that is basically a slap in the face to harm reduction advocates.

Here is my example, and it was all done by the same person during a single high.

First he drew up water from the bottle of water that he had been drinking out of all day, and he used a dull syringe that he had used over 10X in order to do so.

After mixing up a shot in which he used the same amount of bags as usual [5] despite it being a new batch of unknown potency, he obtained a filter by biting off a piece of his cigarette filter. I guess that maybe he figured he was already shooting up using water that has some of his saliva in it, so might as well use a filter that has it on it as well. 8)

When it came time to shoot it up, he didn't bother to untie the tourniquet before pushing the plunger down, so a decent amount of blood came out of the injection site. His solution to this problem was to lick the injection site to rid it of the excess blood, and then he finally untied the tourniquet.

Since the dope turned out the be good and had him nodding properly, he wanted to get more which meant getting behind the wheel of his car so he could drive to the dealers house.

i am a little sick to my stomach reading this first post... i have been guilty of basically the entire story on multiple occassions in the past....

to add to this...

after shooting a (much too big shot of cocaine) my hands were shaking BADLY and i went to wash out syringe with water and squirt it into mouth ( you know to get any small amount of coke left) and yes i know thats horrible to do.... and stabbing myself in lip with needle

Maybe it don't sound like much, but thats what an overdose is......You just stop breathing and die....nothing less, nothing more....life over....thats it....Everything that might have been gone....I mean, are you being sarcastic? I don't understand.....

Explain to me what happens in a "deeper" way.......
 
i was just fucking with your philosophical words. friendly banter, forgive me. por favor.

i can blame it on the drugs, it's close enough to new years and it doesn't help i've had a bottle of whiskey next to me for an hour already.

the real shit will come soon. watch this space.

we call that a jack-o-lantern
 
it's called stupidity. i've spewed my ring up from accidentally pulling weed through a smokeless pipe. a glob of resin that was built up went straight down my throat and i was violently ill for hours.

i can see where you got jack-o-lantern from.

lols, getting warmed up were ya haha.

i (usually) only ever really do stupid shit/dangerous shit on liquor or benzos. in australia its perfectly fine to drink beers every arvo after work or get legless on weekends, if anything its encouraged. Australia's drinking culture would have to be one of the worst examples of poor harm reduction, yet other drugs are mostly taboo...says me whos half cut on beers and beams yee yee
 
crazy bastards. i bet they had a sheet eating grin on their face.

i'd never get in the car with anyone tripping who's decided to go for a drive, not a fucking chance.
 
Besides the laser beams and patterns, I don't think it's that bad.....If you were peaking on 1000mics of liquid, ahh maybe not....but I can tell the difference between trails and what's actually there....especially after a few hours, you're usually good....

Of course, I'm sure I'm wrong here and probably justifying my own actions!
