Damn I need to try this. Speaking of tolerance - i've been hitting the pipe for about 2 months now and go through about 4-5 grams a day. Is this normal and does the tolerance get worse?
btw a lot of people speak about "bellringer" and how to get them. The only time i get them is if cook up a half gram and do it in one go and hold in the smoke for 20-30 seconds. If i smoke half a gram in one hit and don't hold that shit in no bellringer.
I would love to know some more about how to smoke out of a bong.
The OP said he doesn’t recommend this but I disagree after thinking about it for years. Crack is addictive obviously in any form. While you don’t want to introduce someone to crack because it’s one of the worst memories that you’ll ever have, this isn’t the same as introducing someone who already smokes to the water bong method. IMO, it is actually humane.
I had smoked for a year off of a straight before apparently I ever even once actually knew what it was like to get high from crack. Of course I didn’t know this. I was spending $60-$80 per day to smoke on a stem yet I still didn’t really know much about what bell ringers or head swimming or tree ninjas were. I’ve heard of those terms but I hadn’t yet experienced it or just didn’t quite know what they were talking about.
Then at a dealer’s house, he wanted to put $40 in this water bong with a huge long straight & super tight, huge filter. I’d never smoked out of a water bong before and the instructions were to basically to accommodate the bubbler - to get on my knees which I felt was somewhat demeaning but this water bong rested on the floor. Then the instructions were to suck as fast as hard and as long as I possibly could- just balls to the wall and leaving no room to hold it for even a second because theoretically I’d taken so much in that there’d be no room left over to hold anything but only to blow it out.
I must admit that I really argued against this. I kept trying to negotiate like how about you give me that 40 and I take it and do it the way I want to do it? And he would reply - look goddamnit I’m paying for this shit so either do it this way or don’t do it at all!
Fine. This is very important but an after thought: I actually followed the instructions to a T. I have since tried to show people because unlike the original poster I believe there’s a very valid reason to do it this way that doesn’t make a damn bit of difference about how addictive the drug is. Out of all the people that I’ve tried to show, maybe two of them have ever done it correctly. One actually grabbed me in a vice grip for a solid 45 minutes, recalled none of it but exclaimed that he never wanted to do it again. He was, I came to find out, schizophrenic. Every single one of them stops early and tries to hold it. Every single one of them looks at that amount of dope and even if they didn’t pay for it they feel like they’re going to waste it if they just slam it. Therefore, they alter the instructions by breathing not as fast as they can & not as long as they can since they then hold it which is all very apparent to the person trying to show them. What’s worse is that fucks up the hit because if you go to slow or quit too fast the dope somehow drops out and is lost. Like that entire 40 is so lost then they should’ve just given it to you to take home and smoke on a stem. If you do it correctly almost all of it comes back for one but nothing can possibly compare to the sensation.
It took two men with two fireplace lighters each that were modified to have the longest freaking flames imaginable who went below the filter for the entire hit. Since then I understand why. If the entire filter wasn’t covered on all sides then that one missing side, everything would drop through and be lost.
I followed his instructions exactly as dictated. When I was done I fell back uncontrollably and could not speak. I could smile and all in one moment I heard the Wawa‘s my head was spinning… Just everything I had ever heard of and never experienced before, I experience all right then. And it wasn’t short acting. It lasted for I don’t know a good 30 minutes and even then, I had no desire to chase anymore.
I recall once I switched to that way as long as I did it correctly - no one will reach again for another hit for a really long time. It doesn’t make sense because the half life is so short but done in this manner in my mind it rings a bell like maybe a high on your own supply bell. Because nothing else can explain why a drug with such a short half-life can keep you from repeatedly reaching for it for as long as, if done correctly, a half an hour to an hour to even longer to where you don’t even remember that the shit exists because you’re so fucking high. It’s unbelievable, but it’s true.
At first I worried that if anybody else found out they would be screwed. However in that same instant that I felt all of those things, I also realized just in the blink of an eye that I had been smoking crack for a year every single day and had not one time been high. So theoretically I spent way more money chasing a high that I would never get on a stem.
So it’s my advice that if you’re going to smoke crack, do it right and if you do it right it all comes back and besides that you stay so fucking high for so long you don’t even want any more. That’s something really special about a water bong. I have never been able to duplicate the same results with meth and I don’t think it’s possible.
I read someone here saying that they felt they got even less by using a water bong than with an oil burner. I agree. It’s not crack. Crack is something special when used with a water bubbler.
I never could have imagined a time in my life that I would be crack-free. I figured I would die that way. I had no doubt that I would, to be honest. Yet it’s been well over 10 years and I have an aversion to it which is unbelievable to me. I always hated it don’t get me wrong but it never kept me from doing it. I tend to think I was really lucky because there have been a lot of changes to meth starting in around 2017 to what we have today which is a far cry from what it used to be. Back in the day, meth was the cure for crack addiction. And it works or it did as far as transference goes. It works so well that it made me never again want crack. I’ve actually tried it multiple times over the years and I just don’t like it which is amazing that it doesn’t make my gut hurt like it used to. It’s unbelievable that it didn’t just pick right back up where it left off. I’m fool enough to have tried it again but not fool enough to just keep doing it over and over and over again. I’m very lucky that meth actually served as a cure for crack addiction at one time.
