General Heroin Use Habits MEGA THREAD

[cosmic charlie]

Without a tolerance it takes me about a .2 to feel good. Usually around a gram or to catch a nice nod. Ive done a crap load of dope over the last decade and have been left with a pretty wicked natural tolerance. When I travel to other states and taste there shit it doesn't even get me high really. LAst time I had tar I had to slam a whole gram and it just barely got me right.

East Coast FTW

 

[.Death.]

Not dope and i don't IV but my DOC (oxycodone) takes about 160mg to get me HIGH, more like 80mg if i'm W/D'ing for a few days first, and 30mg to maintain/day. I dont know the conversion ratio's but i'm sure this kinda tolerance counts for something the the dope world HEH

It would depend on the quality of dope. But when I do oxys I can feel high off an 80, but if I want to get HIGH 160mg will set me straight. I dont considering myself high unless I am nodding out.

See I don't like to be nodding heavy, I shoot 3 bags and I'm high as fuck but not noddin unless I'm tired and like layin down.

--How many bags do you do at once in one shot/dose?

Usually around a quarter to half of a bag because I'm a chipper


--Do you usually buy bundles, bricks or looseys when you cop?

One balloon at a time

--Wat type of needle gauge and size do you prefer when IV'ing?

I use 29 guage, 1" 100 unit standards right now

--wat is the dirtest shot you ever took?

I'm usually pretty clean.

--Wat is your setup when shooting your dope?

My cooker is usually improvised from the bottom of a soda can. Sterilize everything with isopropyl. Cotton from q-tips rolled up into tight little balls. Mmmm. Then bang away, same vein usually, no turniquet

--For the dope users. (how high)

What? Usually as high as possible without nearing an OD

 

[Khadijah]

If the needle was bent. I would in my moment of clarify snap it off so I couldn't use it. Before I was even tempted.

I can tell you aint a dopehead

Has anyone else ever tipped the people that serve them?

My dude used to drive down to my house (20-45 minutes) right after he copped, and if he ever took more then like 20 minutes, or hit traffic id tip him like 6 dollars or however much 2-3 gallons of gas was. And he wasnt making any money by driving down to meet me, so by giving him gas money its like he never made the trip at all.

If I was him I'd be parked around the corner wasting some time and then make a story about an accident, then complain about the economy and the price of oil *hint* *hint*. Probably do a line or two of your stuff on the way. That I bought for 50% the price of what I'm charging.

But yeah, I'd pay for someone to bring it, pretty much what your doing is the clever option... no getting bust, no getting ripped off (unless you giving him the money up front). Only know one guy who I'd trust with my address though and his stuff, well the whole city's stuff, has gone to shit lately. Damn Nigerians are flooding the market with fake drugs which is fucking dumb, everyone's gonna stop buying from them, thought with them being businessmen they'd know that it's not self supportive. Code 419 needs to be extended to cover fraud in illicit substances.

what is the line yall draw between nodding and OD? seems like I can never find the right amount or to paranoid to do more. I shoot usually 1 bag and feel fine...not really nodding or anything unless I smoke a ton of weed and I mean a TON. any tips? Ive been at it for 2 weeks straigt, so a bit of a tolerance. Im scared to push the limits on how much I shoot in one time because when I started off, I shot a half bag and shot another half within 2 minutes and OD i think...passed out for 15 min

 

[epiks]

When I first started, and had money(before the addiction fully set in) I bought a gram, then a ball, loved it so much bought a zip which lasted quite awhile...now i can only afford about a gram at a time. The prices are ridiculous if you can buy in large quantity, almost half as much per gram for a zip rather than buying single grams.

 

[PinK~cloud]

i usually get .4g to a gram when i buy. otherwise its just too big of a hassle. suboxone put my tolerance in a new place, so i typically smoke .4g-.6g in a sitting.
god i wish i lived on the east coast where you get the fancy bags and stamps. BTH usually just comes mushed between two pieces of plastic bag material. so lame.

 

[null_null]

"How many bags do you do at once in one shot/dose?"

only ~100mg per shot. i dont like to lay around
all day anymore but rather use less to be motivated
and euphoric to go out with my friends and do stuff.
although when i use in the evening i'll be nodding,
so its all good.


unfortunately i had my second positive urin analysis
yesterday, so i either have to be really carefully now
or just stop using h.
dont wanna loose my take home.

Falling asleep for 15 minutes aint OD'ing. Thats called a nod. did you stop breathing? Did you turn blue? did you lose consciousness (This aint the same thing as falling asleep!! Losing consciousness means you are out and cant get woken up!) ??

I highly doubt that after using every day for 2 weeks, only one bag at a time, that shooting another half a bag caused a OD. It just dont make sense at all. It seems like you dont know wat a nod is. Just becuz you fade in and out and nod out while youre talkin/smoking/etc , aint a OD. That is a nod. ODing is much more serious than that, and you fall much deeper into unconsciousness . trust me, you would know if you OD.d

This really aint a question that belongs in here tho, check out Other drugs forum for more info. This is just kind of like a informal poll on peoples habits when using, not a spot for questions about the actual effects of the drug. Any questions like that belong in Basic drug discussion or Other drugs. DC is for everything about the drugs OTHER than the actual dosing, effects, and basic information about the drug itself.

 

[Mystery Brew]

^ I know what a nod is

I completely lost consciousness (as in one second I was wake up...still know what was going on, than blacked out) and from what my friends said happen at that time was my breathing was erratic. seized for a little while. my friend tried to slap the shit out of me to wake me up, still unconscious ..than I came back in 15 min..might not be a OD but not sure what it could be

still to this day I dont know what happen

 

[deaf eye]

i know this is about h
but my ma had a hysterectomy
when the surgery was a success they had her on morphine drip

shes like to the nurse this is making sick can you take it out and give me something else

i aint into sharing rigs
but with my ma i woulda popped that in and push that button
till i got my pin eyes

 

[Khadijah]

Shit, who wouldnt. I aint proud to say that I have shared needles in the past, but I been tested and I am clean. It dont make it safe or right and Ima suggest that nobody share, but when i did share it was with people that I knew closely and knew had been tested recent (For example i went to the needle exchange with them, where they offer free test) so i had some degree of bein certian or at least thought so. Now that i look back, there aint no way at all to rationalize that shit. How can I say I knew? It was their fuckin word. To most people word aint bond. I didnt see the results, it was just them assuring me. Who says they didnt lie? wat on earth made me just take it at face value and say, OK, fine lets share a needle. I want to smack my self. I used to steal bleach from CVS, keep it in a bottle in my car and then rinse needles i shared out, someties, but just as many times just used water.

Why was i so sure i was safe, that thes ppl wasnt lying? Cuz it was my friends? cuz i wanted to believe? Its fucked up wat your mind will convince you into when youre sick. Ive took a bloody needle out of my friends arm, sucked up some water squirted it out and popped that bitch into my vein. WTF was wrong with me???? Its just sad.....Ive proly shared with 4-5 people over th course of my use, but i was usually monogamous with my sharing lol meaning i only shared with one person at once, but that dont make no damn difference.....

please dont share needles everybody....you dont even know wat your gettin yourself into...

Hello

Well, I am new to BL, however not new to opiates. I have been addicted to opiates for years, however I have been on H for 10 months now sadly because oxys etc... just weren't doing it for me any longer. I suppose that is just natural progression when one is an opiate addict.

I usually buy a stack at a time (10 buns) and pay --- flat for it. A brick is ---. This is for average quality H, rated 5-6 on a scale of 1-10.

I usually do around 10 bags a shot give or take, and if I actually want to feel it for more than a half hour to an hour I do 12-15. I do this 2 to 3 times a day. When I am running low, or trying to wean down to be clean for a few days at a time, I do about 10 over the course of the day, and I def feel shitty, but manageable.

I use BD 50 unit, 31 guage, 5/8 in. I am very clean, and always clean the area before injection, as well as after with isopropyl alcohol. I have a phobia of infection after getting cellulitis in my hand from a bad/ dirty shot the 3rd time I ever tried iv-ing. Do you think that scared me off? It SHOULD have, but...well... Im sure other users understand. I only use a syringe at most twice if I can help it. I do not share them, that scares the hell outta me. I have had friends ask for mine after they have been used bc I only use them once or twice, and although I am 100% free of any diseases, I still won't let anyone use mine, nevermind me use theirs- EVER. I would love to give the benefit of the doubt, but I just wont let myself and have ended up sniffing it instead of using someone elses, even if it has been cleaned with bleach.

I have a ridiculously high tolerance and remember the days when I would do 1 bag at a time and get the best rush...I dont remember the last time I felt that way. It really isnt even fun anymore to me for the most part, so Im weaning myself down currently and I keep thinking about how I could buy myself a new Gucci bag every week, or pay my tuition bill for Harvard without struggling financially. I have put everything aside bc sadly the dope has pushed its way into becoming my first priority and have let basically al other financial responsibilities go down the gutter.

Sorry for the long post, this is my first on BL... I could go on forever about my habit etc...

xoxo

First time I ever shot h I had a junkie I'd met at the dealers house do the honors having no idea how to go about it. He missed his own vein, ended up with welts all the way down his forearm, the shit was good but it must've been cut with sometime disagreeable. Anyway, after watching that, I still decided to try it, and he used his needle to find my vein. I think he washed the rig out with vodka or something in between. It was fantastic shit, though. Fantastic. And I promptly passed out and the kid stole my laptop, never saw him again.
Next day, instead of swearing off heroin for good, I went and bought more shit and skipped school to hang out at a dealers house...so begins a five-year habit I'm kicking now by force after moving to a different city.
Ha, that was just my first experience with IV, I've reused cottons that were really disgustingly dirty, shared plenty of needles/blood with other users (when they couldn't find their vein, I didn't even bother trying to re-filter or clean the syringe, kind of makes me shudder now, but at the time, if it was good dope...), ummm, found a tiny rock on the floor of my bedroom, pretty gross, but it got me high. I had no idea how long it'd been there or if it was actually heroin until after I cooked it and shot it up. Brilliant ideas of a junkie, awesome stuff. This should be screened for anti-drug propaganda somewhere.

Oh yeah, and as for the question on OD'ing, yeah, you'd know if you'd overdosed.
I've shot a half gram almost all at once, and was out for the rest of the night, knocked out in the backseat of my friend's car. They were pretty pissed, but even then I hadn't overdosed. An overdose is much scarier.
