Ok im just going to leave my opinion on this and see if anyone else agrees rather than argue over nothing
It really depends on your personality type if you will get addicted to heroin IMO. I generally am not the most sociable person so I wound up really enjoying drugs that more or less required no other interaction with people to increase my enjoyment of them. Opiates are by far at the peak of that group, with weed and amphetamines being a bit below that. On the complete other hand, I never even came remotely close to abusing cocaine. Id do it every once and a while, but it just wasnt really a good fit for my ideal mindstate, although I did enjoy the fuck out of it.
And I know this is a murky and hearsay ridden subject but lets be honest, not all dope is created equal. Im not gonna say I always get 10/10 bags, and sometimes you get bags that barely do anything, but more often than not where im at, youre gonna get shit at least decent enough to make you OD if you arent careful. When you can just feel that pungent dope taste in your senses more than anything it might be cut with, its just like the lights on a drag racing strip in my mind like you put a dab on your tongue and its just the most rancid yet satisfying taste.
might take a little travel and waiting around to get to that point but odds are you dont really have much better to do if youre buying dope to begin with and the trip back is always WAY more enjoyable than the ride down so i kind of look at it as a one way trip really.
and all you really need is transportation, money, and a cell phone if you want to make it real easy. Thats all that seperates you from fiending for that high, to actually making it happen.
And once you make a routine out of it, its hard to not slip up because you know how easy it would be to go get it again. And we all have our reasons for using drugs but at least personally, I dont usually replace bad habits with good ones I just replace them with not as bad habits. But since theyre still bad habits, I just wind up saying fuck it, I might as well get the BADDEST habit because whats really changed here?
It is possible to use heroin recreationally you just cant let it become your only form of recreation. But odds are, if you are drawn to abusing opiates in general, you are ok with not actually doing much while the "recreation" takes place. You could get an eight ball of coke to yourself but if you dont do anything on it then whats the fucking point? You get high enough on heroin, and YOURE AT the fucking point. You could say, the batteries ARE INCLUDED.
Well then are they really looking for an answer or just a confirmation of what they already want to believe? I'm all for HR but let's be honest, you can't save everyone. If someone thinks they can be a few steps ahead of dope addiction and goes ahead and tries it, let them find out the hard way. You learn the best through failure.
I'm still quite addicted to heroin, although I only use it two times a week at this point because that's all the money I can allocate to getting high at this point in time. I would like to be able to get high more often, I just cant because then I wouldnt be able to have such a staunch defense for my habit. Is that me having control over heroin? Not at all. I just have a stronger desire to not be a hypocrite to my family. So I'm not two steps ahead of dope, I'm just constantly catching up to it in a never-ending juggling act. Whether that is something to be proud of or ashamed of depends on who you ask but im not really either one of those two, more like somewhere in the middle.
I'm ashamed when I see something I would like to purchase but cant because I spent it on bags. But sometimes I'm actually a little proud when im sitting on my couch fucked up, bills paid, house in good shape, basically all my shit handled for the day, and I can just relax. That I don't feel bad about. I just traded a lot of things I could have done to get high, and that may sound negative in text and out of context but at the same time I could have died at childbirth due to health issues so everything after that is just gravy to me. I'm a glass is half full kind of person believe it or not, I just also understand why some may see it as half empty
so I mean, if you feel like you can outwit Lady Heroin, by all means give it a shot (pun intended). Just dont be surprised if you fall flat on your face or settle for mediocrity like I am currently doing
just thought id bump these two posts from over a year ago
I'm going to be a drug user until the day I die
if you're ok with that, you'd probably enjoy using heroin
if you want a bit more out of life, Id stay as far away from opiates as possible
I just never really wanted much to do with anything, and opiates are the only way I can truly relax in a setting I truly find relaxing
it happens to be illegal, highly illegal.
well doesnt that fuckin suck
that's a heroin addiction in a nutshell
"well doesnt that fuckin suck? but you know why you put up with all the bullshit..."
so you can forget about all the bullshit for a little while
and when you come to, you just think about how youre gonna forget about all the bullshit again
"and all you really need is transportation, money, and a cell phone if you want to make it real easy. Thats all that seperates you from fiending for that high, to actually making it happen."
so once that thought is in your head, well, you might have to accept the fact that you're just another statistic
one more ting: heroin on the Darknet by and larges sucks cock. If you get it off the street there are much greater odds of falling addicted to it
hear me out: if there's 10 other places to get dope in a square mile of a corner, if that dope set puts out shit dope, people wont go back.
if a guy on the Darknet sends out a lot of beat dope to people in East Nowhere, USA, people who never had anything better, it's easy to think that is what heroin should feel like.
even if you get stamps of the darknet, they wont be good. You might think that it is the same exact product they sell on the corners but it isnt. It's either the sets "B-grade bags" or the vendor cuts his own beat dope and bags it into stamps himself and says its from "Brick City yo"
its not, YO. if you want to get high on opiates off the darknet id stick to pharms because they are harder to get screwed over with
on subs now. I am going to start a collection of pills for when I get older 
so that you have got rid of the crap it has been adulterated with and is quite a benign drug, causes no damage to the body's organs or functions when in a pure-ish state, like the heroin citrate most people inject - though I would always recommend smoking even if it is less healthy than injecting pure heroin citrate or hydrochloride as available it your local pharmacy on prescription... Just watch the Rx stuff, it is so pure and easy to overdose on, esp the 500mg vials. I would get five good snorts of powder out of one 500mg freeze dried Teva heroin hydrochloride ampoule.
