Look, Swim knows they are a complete idiot. They realize they are doing something really freaking stupid for a really mediocre high. Swim started when they were out of everything about a week and a half ago just to get by until they could find something else and now they can't stop. However, long story short, how soon after Swim takes Wellbutrin XL (sans-coating) intranasally should swim rinse out their nose. How long does swim have before this stuff causes massive problems. Swim is already having bloody snot and all that good junk. Probably tmi Swim knows but they don't see giving them up anytime soon and kinda wants to know whats going to happen over time.
 
We don't use SWIM here.

And as far as how soon goes, if your having a bloody nose and other bothersome symptoms then why would you wait to clear out your nose? As far as the actual cleaning goes there are a number of different methods, but from what I hear, a Netipot (sp?) is a good way to go.

On a different note, I feel I should mention that if snorting Bupropion for the purpose of recreation goes then you should be aware that in doses above the therapeutic level, this chemical can lower the seizure threshold making it much easier for one to occur. At least you recognize using Wellbutrin in this manner is not a smart idea with minimal reward.
 
Probably not that long, dude. A bloody nose is a clear sign that massive damage is beginning to happen. Your nose doesn't really heal like other areas of the body, it just stays fucked up.
 
They said it wasn't like a regular bloody nose, but like a ton of bloody snot, on top of cleaning out their sinuses after every use they do it one big time a day, and a huge amount of bloody snot comes out of the nostril they don't use. They know this is gross as hell.
 
yeah that is permanent damage and it builds up fast. i know my nose and pretty much everyone i know's nose is fucked up. i have constant problems and it never heals properly, pieces of nose are always falling out and shit

edit - haha, know's nose.
 
They can't freaking stop snorting those little pills though. People say they don't do anything, but they swear up and down they do. So they sit there and weigh the consequences .
 
I wouldn't be so quick to tell this guy he has permanent nasal damage. Obviously what he's done is not good and the bloody nose is a sign of that, but I highly doubt any permanent severe damage has occurred from one session of snorting Wellbutrin.

Now if he keeps these behaviors up then, yeah, permanent damage is in his future so he should take this experience and learn from it.

I snorted thousands upon thousands of mgs of oxycodone and a little dope and my nose is fine. I'm not saying what I did was healthy or that no damage occurred, but I haven't lost any sense of smell and certainly do not have pieces of anything falling out. I have met people that have damaged noses from extensive repetitive drug (mainly cocaine) use however, I have no noticible negative effects from intranasal drug use, but IV is a different story...
 
See i personally have no trace of ever using IV drugs, which i abused quite heavily often times shooting up nearly 10 times a day for years or more especially with MDPV and heroin codependancy, but for whatever reason the snorting of different chems has left permanent damage and i think i snorted less than i IV'd.

The nose is so much more susceptible to permanent damage, for me. I've also snorted everything i've gotten my hands on, and bupropion feels very caustic compared to snorting opiates, as far as i can remember. Also, i've never even gotten a bloody nose from snorting shit, which is weird.
 
When snorting powders, I was always more concerned with some of the substance ending up in my lungs than I was with damaging my actual nasal cavity. And I do agree that bupropion does seem inherently more caustic than opiates, but I'm not sure of the validity of that.
 
What they are worried about is the citric acid that bupropion is made with, which is why it burns so much, but they don't even feel it anymore.
 
Your nose will be permanently damaged over time as you continue to snort these pills, that's your answer. Now you know i guess you can continue snorting them.. what more can we say?

Can't feel it anymore? That's nerve damage.
 
I'm not going to say that you're not actually feeling anything from these pills because it is a cathinone that is closely related to a stimulant, but I never felt much when taking these.

And yeah not feeling the burn anymore is a sign that, I would imagine, means your on your way to future issues.
 
Hi,

Just thought I'd add to the thread as I have been snorting these shitty pills (Bupropion SR) also, quite a few times now (not by preference, trust me, they have been a last resort).

I had started taking them orally for depression 150mg 3 x daily. They are not wellbutrin, as I'm in the UK they are only licensed for smoking cessation under the brand Zyban, so the ones I have are generic and are not from the UK. Anyway they did fuck all for my depression, so against my best intentions not to do so, I ended up getting pissed off and snorting one.

And yes, for me anyway the stimulant effect was instant. Nothing out of this world but it did lift my mood, gave me a mild stim buzz etc. They are horrific to snort though I must say and the drip and crap is just horrendous. The citric acid in them isn't the best ingredient you want either.

As one of the above post mentions, I have also put all manner off shit up my nose for years and still have bits falling out every so often, and I can still feel the burn, so there must be some nerves that are still active. I have problems with my nose too such as it gushing out like a tap spontaneously with watery snot, but blood is quite rare for me too.

Overall as most say this drug isn't worth what you put your nose through by snorting compared to the reward you get. The only reason I resort to this is out of desperation when I have exhausted my supply of more prefereable and more effective substances.
I have a script for a high amount of benzos and also an anti-convulsant so I haven't worried about seizures but it's worth taking into consideration as a lot of people have had them and I'm sure they ain't pleasant.

I don't suppose there is......but does anyone know how to make the experience of snorting these less horrendous, apart from washing your nose out, which I do with saline?

Just to add.....I have snorted 2x 150mg of a different generic brand of Bupropion SR and hardly any burn and less of a nose full of crap.....maybe less citric acid???
 
SinuRinse works fantastic and should be in every snorters cabinet or just for healthy cleansing in general.It is kinda a squeeze bottle version of the Netipot but provides more force in turn being much more effective at rinsing toxins out. Not too mention it feels great after a rinse or two.....Any drug store sells em .
 
I have never snorted bupropion before (no fucking thanks) but i have snorted alot of dilly 2's, 4's and 8's over the years. Before my IV habit i was railing loads of those pills everyday and a good 3 years on and my nose is still fucked up! If you have ever seen the name brand dillys you would know there is fuck all filler in them but even that amount of shit can damage your nose. Never mind snorting wellbutrin.

I find using saline regularly helps but other then that not much does.
 
Thanks for your replies, I do have some saline and I do rinse with it, very handy piece of kit to have around, I agree! Couldn't snort some of this shit without having a good rinse!

The best thing really is to not snort the shit (Bupropion) in the first place, but as I said at times, needs must unfortunately.....
I really DO NOT recommend it to anyone who is thinking of doing it, it is nasty, but then again most people won't believe it till they try it.....

Thanks again for your input.
