So some Opium just came into town, and me and a friend want to try it, but know nothing about it.

We heard 500mg is about an average dose per person, is this true? and how much does 500mg cost on average.

What does the high feel like, how long does it last.

Should we mix weed with our Opium high?

We have an opium pipe.

I don't dont know mg vise but def mix it in a blunt with some chronic. And yeah dude it feels amazing for few hours..
 
only got it once for 20 bucks a gram.. Altho i heard it runs anywhere from 15-to-25 a gram. ( edit: and i am sure it also depends on quality but due to my lack of exprience i really dunno man)
 
yeah I am really dissapointed by erowid's Opium Vault though, it's non-existent!

And opium has been smoked for thousands of years...

Thats why I came here for answers.

And I read some of the experiences awhile ago.
 
where i live (middle east) opium is common stuff but im not sure what type and kind of opium you have. also its really hard to measure the dose. the most common form of opium where i live is black gum opium and ppl usually eat very small piece when first trying. noone actually measure it or know their doses here where i live. they just eat a little and test it first.

the high depends on many things. how strong it is, the form of opium, the consumption method - smoking is much more safer and enjoyable than eating by the way - but you cant smoke it like toking weed. there are several ways of smoking it a google search will guide you. but smoking dont last long like eating. if your opium is potent the high will most likely feels like strong opioids, even better than most of the potent opioids imo. when eaten the high lasts many many hours by the way. another thing you should know is it causes extreme nausea on some people, specially on first timers.

pls keep in mind that when you eat the gum it takes too much time to kick in (1 or 1.5 hours - depends on form of opium of course). so if you decide to eat it wait at least 2 hours. if you dont catch a buzz DONT redose. wait at least a couple of hours before redose

opium is no joke. ppl get themselves killed very easily so be extra careful and do more research before try it. hope my post will help you a bit. good luck:)
 
Half of gram of O shouldn't cost much, like $10-$20.

Don't know about the dose for sure though, Something like a pencil eraser sized chunk or smaller should work for 2 people depending on how much its been refined/concentrated or if its raw and unprocessed you may need more.

With "real" concentrated opium you need only like 2 decent hits to feel it.
 
so we should just take hits every like 5 minutes till we feel something?

that sounds safe :P
 
If its black, gooey, kinda looks like a rasin, and smells sorta like vinegar its heroin.

chances are its heroin
 
so take a hit, wait for 5-10 minutes, then take another if I feel nothing?

And i've smoked black tar before. So i'll know if its that (unless the effects are exactly the same).

Unless your "town" is a border village across from Feyzabad I doubt there's just a sudden "influx" of good opium.

Maybe some enterprising young lad bought a couple boxes of dhoop?
 
I haven't been able to find much info on the web about oral opium, or opium altogether really (erowid's vault is quite weak), but there is a thread or 2 on bluelight discussing oral opium which are closed to post new replies in so I figured I should clarify in this one that you do NOT need to take more orally than smoked. If you do that you will most likely die. In one of the other bluelight discussions someone said 500mg is a good oral dose. That will kill you. A good oral dose is 25-50mg. I took 100mg recently and it was very intense and psychedelic actually. Lots of visuals and very strange thinking. Reminded me of 2C-E in a few ways strangely enough.

With smoked you can roll up 50-100mg balls, put them in a pipe(helps to put it on the side and tilt your pipe so it doesn't run down through the screen), and hoot it really hard. It'll bubble and you can get pretty huge white hoots without it burning your throat. Wait 5 minutes or so between each hoot until you have reached desired high. Usually takes about 300-500mg smoked to get a really nice high. Stay safe! Oral opium can be very dangerous!

Opium is very weak. It's basically the sap of the poppy which contains all sorts of alkaloids, none of which are recreational besides morphine and codeine. Any kind of high that anyone would get from smoking opium will be like a weak morphine high. Morphine is responsible for most, if not all, of opium's effects. Of course there are other alkaloids that have their own pharmacological properties and that will be mixed in with the codeine and morphine.

ditto to that.. i ran into some a few months ago and was hyped up ready to go.. big disappointment
 
I've used Opium twice, once I got a hold of some Opium tincture from a friend who's father was prescribed it for cancer, he had just died so he didn't need it anymore. It came in a bottle similar to the one used for Codeine cough syrup except there was a little dropper on it so only small drops would come out at a time. It said, "two drops every 4 hours". Of course my intention was to abuse it so I'd take like 10 drops every couple hours. It was fairly weak, like a low dose of Morphine, a really low dose. Disappointed.

But then once I got the gooey, gummy tar looking stuff. I actually enjoyed the high, TBH just as much as instant release Morphine. I smoked it on top of marijuana and it kicked in within 5 minutes. The high lasted a couple hours. I was walking around in circles feeling simply euphoric. My friend kept saying take it easy, don't do too much because I kept taking hit after hit. I think the marijuana was a culprit to why it felt so good. I'd do it again for sure.
 
I love opium. I would say half a gram in one session is a good place to start as it is usually anywhere from 10-25% active alkaloids and a portion is lost to BA and a tiny bit to combustion.

If you have no tolerance, I would start way lower - around a quarter to an eighth of a gram. If you have a large tolerance, you will likely find it a waste of time and money.

actually, Thebaine is mildly active, just not in you mu opiate receptors, and several other alkaloids are smooth muscle relaxants, anti-emitics, etc - I would certainly say that it is there constituents which give opium a unique high as compared to straight morphine.
