Heroin compared to Oxy

I tried really hard to enjoy snorting oxy. I bought 5x 80's and crushed them up. I've had them for over a month now and I'd say they're about 1/2 gone. I find the high to be really hit or miss. I take a small line, but it seems to wear off quickly, so I do more.. and eventually I get some rushes which are OK if I'm on benzos or booze, but just gives me anxiety when I'm sober. Usually by the end of the night I end up feeling on edge and spaced out, and sometimes on the verge of an anxiety attack. Then instead of getting a nice sleep, I sleep like shit and have to make up the hours later.

Oxycodone on the other hand, I can do 20mg's and be blissed out for hours and hours simply by dosing orally.

It's a prohibitively expensive drug anyways that I won't always have access to, but I don't really see the addicting quality. I find it to be self-correcting, atleast with my body chemistry.

thats really strange to me. Oxy has a better BA orally but ive never heard of people snorting it and having panic attacks? I always found it pretty sedating, although not as much as some ops like h or dillys. I know people who have had panic attacks from taking too much hydrocodone, but it doesnt seem like changing your ROA would make much of a difference except in your mind...


Although I suppose anything is possible in theory. As for the addictive part, well, some people would gladly pawn off their child for a few 80s....
 
I found that after doing OC's for years and then trying dope, that they are very similar. Maybe it's the way that most opiates just treat me. I felt like dope was a warmer, earthier high, while OC's were still warm, but not that warm, and felt super duper clean compared to dope. It's nice that OC's still give that warmth, but dope does a better job, as someone once said here

"Dope has more soul." - Granted he was comparing it to Fentanyl which is super cold and lame. But I think it applies here as well.
 
I think the pills and the dope do pretty much the same thing. The reason I choose heroin is because it's cheaper then oxy, and where I live, its more available. I actually did heroin before ever trying any kind of painkiller!!

I've never banged oxycontin, but I heard its not as good as H, and that rush is the best. I would love to try shooting some oxymorphone sometime though.. My neighborhood seems to only carry percocets and hydro though...
 
IMO, as many others have stated, Oxy is much more a euphoric, highly energized high. I rarely got the nod or dips off of OC, unless I dosed in extremely large quantities. As for H, it is a drug all onto itself, and is a much more sedated and noddy feeling. Though I will say, for myself atleast, when using H I do experience a euphoric feeling, though not nearly as much as I do, rather, did, when I used OC's.

As it goes though for most opiate addicts, once I started using the hard stuff, I did not go back to OC's. Personally, I like H more, but that may just be because Im so spoiled cause I live on the east coast, and more specifically in a city that is know for its bomb, tannish beautiful powder bags. I have only ever insufflated when using, though I have been tempted to IV, mostly because everyone that I used with chose that as their method of administration. I have been an opiate addict, unfortunately, for the past 3 years or so, and having been using H daily for about half that time. At my worst, I was snorting between 2 and a half to 3 buns a day, which is an extremely large quantity. Especially considering that the purity level of the bags available in my area is roughly 70 percent. But dancing with the devil always comes at a cost. Please, whoever is reading this and is debating doing H, or any opiate for that matter, DONT!!! I know that you probably think it is bullshit, because I know that I certainly did, but it will ruin your life! I have spent the past 3 years of my life living solely to get high, and I have been constantly chasing that superb, floating on a cloud feeling that you get when first using opiates. It is a long, long dark road of despair, and I found this out the hard way. It changes the very essence of your being, and drives you to do things that you would never have done if you were not an addict. I have done things that I am not proud of to get high, and I have spent well into the tens of thousands of dollars on my addiction. If I could turn back the hands of time, I would have never touched the stuff in the first place.

Though, on a more positive note, I have been white knuckling it cold turkey for about 9 days now, and I am slowly starting to feel alive again! Though the cravings I have are extremely intense, I enjoy the feeling of being clean and living a positive, healthy life for a change. I am going to ride this wave for as long as I can, and hopefully I will finally be able to kick the habit.
 
Oh, CYC, Oxycontin is the name brand form of oxycodone, so I do not understand when you say you are feeling two completely different effects from the same drug???


Edit*

My mistake, I see that you are talking about two different ROA. My fault.

IMO oxy and heroin are almost the same exact feeling.

Oxy is weaker so it def takes more to get as high as you would with H..but you dfe can. (keep in mind I am talking if you sniff, if you IV, then oxy blows compared to H).

but sniffed, I just feel like the H high lasts a little longer, but I feel pretty much the same energy and euphoria. I would take an h high over oxy high any day...considering its a forth the price lol or less. I used to just do oxy then I realized i was being stupid...its the same thin gas H you just are payin SO SO SO much more.
 
I'd probably agree... but an 80 is so much more expensive than 1 bag of dope, no matter how good a deal one may get on the street. Obviously this is not the case if you have an Rx tho.
Wow its cheaper! didn\t know its <snip> substantially less than oxy here in Ottawa!!!! I now know to go to the 2010 price thread if I want to discuss prices at all.

I just realized snorting is a REAL waste!!!! Slamming is better but be careful...try to just do it once in a a while.....

annnd 2nd best roa then? I don't want to shoot(I say now ;) ), and was planning on snorting it. I mean half a bag sounds like a fair amount and that dose is cheap, and I think the IV rush would be addicting(like snorting amphetamine(which is easy to make myself not do though)), and I simply don't want to shoot drugs(other than IM clean ketamine or something like that, not street heroin).
 
I know some people are just sharing their opinion, but be careful with this veiled commercial for harm production ("snorting is like such a waste, you gotta bang that shit" type stuff.)

This site doesn't just promote the greatest high regardless of consequences but how one can stay safe and how relatively safe common practices are.
 
For the poster that didn't want to shoot.

I've never done it myself (with heroin), but I heard plugging H is a great alternative to I.V.

seriously? In fact the bioavailability is about 30%. you are better off snorting. you get somewhere along the lines of 50% that way. I know from experience. Plugging diamorphine is more along the likes of oral consumption. not worth it.
 
^I really don't doubt your numbers, they sound right to me but do you have sources or are you quantifying personal experience? The BA mega thread didn't have intrarectal and insufflated BA's for heroin.
