Heroin A million and one heroin questions


If you're used to smoking it, snorting it wouldn't get you the rush you're used to... I don't think you'd be satisfied with snorting it, but you never know til you try it...

If not snort (and not shoot, like you said), you could try dirty water... that's probably the third best way to do it. Just break it down in a SMALL amount of water in a spoon and dump it up your nose.
 
I assume it's black tar? I used to IV it and after a run my skin would dry up and peel on my nose and mouth, and afterwards I'd break out with acne. all you can really do is use moisteriser, don't touch your face too much, and try to find cleaner shit. But in regards to the peeling, you'll live.
 
no need to SWIM on BL

i never heard of peeling of the mouth but it could be related to the heroin smoking. I'd suggest a different ROA (route of administration) because smoking heroin is the most wasteful way to use it by far. If you're not a needle person try plugging or nasal administration (ie cook it up and draw into a rig, take off the needle and squirt it up your nose---same thing works but instead of up your nose up your rectum...sounds silly yes, but it gets you really really high because there's lots of nerves and blood vessles down there) goodluck

seriously this works?, ive never heard of that but ive snorted the powder before, ive even rolled joints with the powder too.


anyway as for the flaking lips ask if the tooter was burning hot at times, if so theres your answer
 
How long after WDs before I can smoke heroin again?

I apologise if this has been asked to death before, I'm sure it has, but I couldn't find an answer. If I give up smoking heroin I expect my WDs to last 4 days acute and mentally about 2 weeks. How long should I wait before smoking it again to be sure I don't put myself back into acute WDs? I am going on a date and might be having sex. I want to make a good impression on the girl (ie last a decent amount of time, I am super sensitive now without opiates and probably will be for a while).

Thanks! Its ok if a mod feels this needs to be merged to avoid cluttering up the forum.
 
It varies a lot from person to person but I'd say about 10+ days and you should be good. Just keep in mind that if you start using daily again you will become dependant much quicker than you did before.

As for the sex thing, have you tried a weaker opiate to help? I find that a small amount of methadone (10-20mg, 30-40mg if I've had a habit), works just as well....
 
Once you start again it will only take a couple of uses to put you back there. Thats the bad part of opiate addiction. If you are thinking about how to circumvent or short cut addiction, it doesnt work and will land you in even more trouble than you were in before.
Seriously you have to pay the piper, no way around it.
 
The worst of the physical withdrawals last about a week for me (and it's a very long week lol), but the psychological cravings can last for months and months.
I'd say after 2 weeks your tolerance should have gone down enough to get a good high out of smoking again.
 
You want to make a good impression on her so you are going to smoke some heroin?

The very sad part is that I definitely see the logic to that...
 
its best to keep it in the day rather than thinking oh i cant smoke it for however long say you want off it for good it sounds hard thinking you have to stay off it the rest of your life so the best way to do it is when you wake up just think you dont have to smoke heroin that day

sounds easier doesnt it
 
Once you start again it will only take a couple of uses to put you back there.

what do you mean? It took a week of smoking everyday to get myself in this position but I know in the future it'll only take maybe 2 or 3 days in a row to put me back. Is this right? will i still be able to smoke say 8hrs in every 3-4 days? I hope to keep it 8hrs a week max to stop myself getting in this mess again.

So 10+ days should be ok?

Are the mental WDs really longer than 2 weeks? The PAWS. My habit was relatively small, i only smoked and i've only been on it for 5 months or less even. What can I expect? depression?

thanks, this is a good idea.

They can last for months. Smoking is surprisingly difficult when it comes to cravings.
And the PAW depression can also last a long time.
 
A couple of questions on Heroin

Just two questions really.

I have a stuffy nose, not to bad but last night and today when I snorted some dope I didnt feel shit. Does a stuffy nose from a cold mess up snorting heroin?

If so, is there another way that works well to do heroin, besides injecting. Something that works just as well or better than snorting it. I know putting pills under your tongue works well, same thing with dope?
 
You can plug the dope, but I have never tried that, can't vouch for its effectiveness.

If it's powder, it's not efficient to smoke it. I wouldn't waste the dope even trying to. Some people like smoking powder heroin, I can't stand it. Sure, it's nice to be high before you exhale, but where's the legs? It dies down after 10 minutes IME.

There's ways you can clear your nasal passages, try taking a warm shower and taking a nasal decongestant. I would also make sure the environment you are in is clean so that the air quality is good, which may be causing the stuffy nose in the first place, possibly.

A stuffy nose can prevent you from feeling snorted heroin as well, but you should have still felt "something". I always got something when snorting dope, but then again I always got pretty good quality stuff.

alright, well im relatively new to dope, I was doing it quite a bit when i first started but no more than 2 stamps a day. So I am still really new to the stuff. I didnt do it for about 3 weeks before last night. I just did another 3 stamps just now, so thats 4 bags in total. Maybe I just wasnt doing enough before, I thought one stamp would hold me since I havent done it in a bit. The drip is really strong now like it should be and ill probably be feeling it real soon
