the 1st day of withdrawals is horrible. especially in this weather. my legs ache.

Tis good that yer not shooting! Even if it's purely because it's yer arms looking silly.Stil pretty shoddy in leeds, smoked .4 this morning and have a half decent nap though which could be worse, since its cheap as fuck, tbh gone off shooting as my arms are starting to look daft and i've got just as much outta smoking it, except it lasts longer and i love riituals. Are there any obvious things i'm missing to make it run longer? I dont apply too much heat for too long which i dunno if it helps but aye. Any other tips? Does putting more of the gear out to run with in the first place help, apart from the obvious there being more that there is morpe to smoke so itl run longer, does it run longer than 2 lines of half the length? Just little things like that![]()




Yeah mate, I started this with a thread called 'Drought with nasty H' : http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/threads/535073-drought-with-nasty-H in 2010. I never realised just how widespread the problem was at that time. and to be honest I don't think things are back to normal yet! OK, there may be some decent gear around again, but the prices seem to have been permanently inflated due to it. Actually, it's done me good because I've now come to my senses and (almost) stopped buying gear. So now I have the benefit of rose tinted specs where I can bang on about how good it was in the old days..![]()

Well sorry to bore you, but some of us haven't been around the block as long as you Dr B. Surely if you've had these convos a thousand (my guess is closer to a million) times before you can contribute?
What you reckon? Am I better off with 29G 1/2" BD microfines or 27G replaceables?
I appreciate the harm reduction that goes on & if i can help i
Are you and CK talking about these?NSFW:![]()
I agree it's harder to register with finer-gauge needles than bigger ones. Was using 3ml 25G last week to shoot ketamine and registered and hit every time without a problem even though I was off my tits, could never have pulled it off with microfines. I find the main problem with BD microfines is that they don't have a replaceable cap, so you don't have that little vacuum between the cap and the barrel that fills with blood and tells you "Bingo!". That plus a fatter needle just generally seems to make registering, pulling back and shooting much easier because of more suction.
Also re-using a 25G once or twice isn't as much of an issue; finer needles get blunt really, really quickly and tear your veins up properly.
All things considered though I think I'm doing my veins a favour by going to a bit more hassle using a finer gauge than punching great big fuck-off holes in them with 25Gs. I would normally not even use 27Gs. Even though I only shoot up three times a year (roughly) I still want my circulation to be as good in five/ten years as it is now. If I had a vein die on me I'd be fucking pissed with myself, just out of principle.
The ideal syringes (which I could only find in the south of Italy) would be 1cc 29G with replaceable tips. That little space between the needle and the barrel really is very helpful.
Shooting heroin after taking 100ml of methadone is like pissing in the wind - the meth binds to your mu receptors and you wont feel zip from the smack. Even low levels of methadone will effect the gear thgink of it like having 100 cups and 50 are full of 'done so only the other 50 will take the heroin. Anywhere over about 80ml/mgs and you wont feel a thing. You need to lay off for a min of 24h longer if you can to get the full power of the gear.
IM'ing street gear is pretty dangerous in terms of getting abcesses and getting them deep in the muscle is no laughing matter. I would only IM using a wheel filter - which i have never done, when my veins dissapeared it was back to the foil.
