for realllllly serious stuff theres always skin grafting, but thats like a last ditch effort.

maybe try stretch mark healing cream, the stuff women who've just had babies use to heal their stretch marks or cesarean scars.
 
Like people have said, Vitamin E and Aloe are your best bet..honestly I wish there was more that could be done. I use makeup in the most desperate of circumstamces but it really doesn't help too much.

I find wearing long sleeves is even worse of an idea as it just draws even more attention to your arms in the long run.
 
I know someone who's arms are COVERED in self-harm scars who wears short sleeved shirts and I've never known anyone to say anything and nobody seems to care.
 
IV Cocaine Reaction

I have speedballed (with this cocaine), but never on its own. This cocaine was a soft rock with shiny pieces that didn't dissolve readily. When doing a freezie, it is slow to take effect, sometimes a few minutes. This particular instance I wanted to see what the hype was all about, and tried to dissolve ~100mg. I had a very unexpected reaction. I expected a rush of euphoria, numbness and possibly ringing in the ears. Instead there was no euphoria and my pulse did not accelerate at first. Within a minute I begin sweating profusely, I have this tingling sensation in my skin and this overwhelming nausea. I struggled for a good 15 to 20 minutes not to throw up. My heartrate in the mean time was very high.

Within 30 or so I was more or less okay and I don't think I'll be repeating it. I know it's not particularly good cocaine. I know we can't figure out the cuts, but is this a normal but bad reaction, or something that isn't cocaine altogether?
 
Substance doesn't dissolve readily in water -----> Substance is not cocaine.

The "best" cuts are those that don't dissolve at all because you filter them out. The worse cuts are those that dissolve or do so eventually, because you end up injecting them.
 
Cocaine should be VERY soluble in water, so what you injected likely had very little cocaine in it.

IV cocaine still might make you nauseated, but there is a TON of euphoria that goes along with it (as well as a very intense rush - the most intense of anything I've tried).
 
Sounds like cut if it didnt' dissolve. Cocaine hcl dissolves well in water.

When I IV'd cocaine, I would experience the bell ringer, the nausea and profuse vomiting (projectile at times), but I definitely got a good bit of euphoria out of it. Not nearly as much as other drugs, so I didn't do IV cocaine but just a few times.

It only lasts a good 10, maybe 15 minutes tops though. A bit longer than crack, and a bit more enjoyable too. Crack sucks IMO.
 
merging into IV complications thread.

i dont know if theres really anything else that can be said though. it sounds like you got bunk product and lord knows what was in it.

what you described sounds like an extremely short case of cotton fever. cotton fever normally lasts anywhere from a few hours to a day though.
 
when you inject heroin alone? how do you register veins (pulling plunger to draw blood into syringe) with one hand?

oh and when it stings does it mean I missed the vein?

this is all tar

When I inject, I hold the pin as you would a dart to insert the needle.

Then use my middle and index fingers to push the plunger.

Typically I wouldn't have IV'd heroin alone.

If I needed to, I would work lower on my body so I can use both hands.

i was trying to do the vein on my arm. it seems almost impossible to pull a plunger back wit 1 hand. I tried but it was hard to keep steady and stay in the vein. By alone I meant IV with just my hands without help of others.

what part of lower body were you suggesting? I know the feet is supposedly a no go
