So i bought some speed (amphetamine, not methamphetamine that america has loads of but good ol' british street speed) it was fairly cheap so i wasn't surprised to find it was cut with some if not many things, however what i found weird was i was going to IV a small amount because I'm a sucker for a needle but as i was mixing it with 1cc of water in a spoon it didnt totally dissolve, some did but there was little grains of something at the bottoms.

So i added a tiny bit of citric and heated it up a bit and sure enough it dissolved, i filtered it up into a 1cc barrel and put it aside for tomorrow morning, however when i just looked at it, the things that dissolved when heated have recrystalised and look reflective and shiny somewhat like actual glitter would look like in a water solution.

Now i may be an idiot when it comes to IVing things that shouldn't be IVed but I'm not even entertaining the thought of shooting something that looks like ground glass.

I mean obviously it isn't glass because it dissolved with heat but nevertheless i will stick to snorting this batch, this isn't something i've run into before does anyone have any idea what this substance may be ? I know the answer could be literally anything but any guesses would be greatly appreciated.

cheers

Figures, i realised shortly after posting this was a far too open question to put to a forum. I shall do a bit of research into potential cutting agents and see if i can work it out, failing that i will just give this batch a miss.
 
Yeah sorry man its against the rules, we have no way of telling you whats in your product. Stay safe.

Squirted away that syringe full and bits of them got stuck in the needle, not a good sign. I'll stick to sniffing see if anything out of the ordinary happens. Cheers anyway :)

Erm, for speed no not really its insufflate or shoot for me. Anyway the taste of it is truly truly awful and capping it up or bombing it has never really appealed to me for reasons i am uncertain. Ive tried most roa's over various different things like benzos are i prefer sublingual mostly and i used to find MPA was far more efficient if plugged so i did that occasionally.
 
My experience with crystal methamp is that it is extremely prone to dissolving in water. Not sure if normal amp is the same but if so i would consider your experience of finding undissolved bits as a possible way to perhaps remove some of the cut. No idea if this is accurate or if it makes it safer for IV. Prob not.
 
Your warnings have been heeded and added to my common sense and i've decided against trying to do anything other than insufflate, it would just be stupid and quite the opposite of harm reducing.

Amphetamine is 100% water soluble, as are all of the common cutting agents i've come across hence my confusion. I have enquired with who i bought it from but i doubt they will know or tell me, either way blocked 30g pins is enough to put me off shooting this ... stuff. Speed here is always totally filthy i've always dual solvent cleaned it up before shooting in the past however this was touted to me as "totally pure 1000%!!" Goes to show the trustworthy-ness of stim dealers, the shifty buggers.
 
Yes and Oral is even better (for me at least) and lasts longer and then we have plugging being the best in terms of positives VS negatives and risk, close to IV without any of the many downsides. If you usually IV i think plugging is worth a comparison if not already tested with proper technique.

Hmm wasn't aware of the closeness in plugging vs IV i may well try that, my arms could do with a rest and I'm nearly out of fresh supplies for IV and re-using needles is far within my "No!" pile

I shall try plugging
