Worth a Shot!
Ok, I've been on and off Heroin for about 5 years now, and I go through very painful and agonizing withdrawals whenever I try and stop after a bender. I will say that after a lot of my junkie friends told me that doing meth once when you start to withdrawal will solve the misery of the experience, I was skeptical to say the least. I have mixed meth with my last shot of heroin and this made me ease into the withdrawals with much less misery. Right now I am 14 hours since my last shot of heroin, which for me I should be dying, but I snorted some meth at 10:30 and I have since smoked a few more bowls and have all but completely forgot about my burning desire to score more heroin. I am one who is very sensitive to amphetamines, because I rarely do them, I have come to the conclusion that since they affect me in such a strong way, my body exhibits none of the symptoms of heroin withdrawal which make the process seem to drag on so long. Time seems to be passing fast, my hopes are high about the future, and I have even yawned, which means I might go to sleep in a while. If you shoot up meth it will be much more intense, the effects from that will make it difficult for me to sleep for days, but compared to how I feel with nothing, it makes me feel great. My theory is also the fact that Heroin withdrawal is so demoralizing.. making me feel like I can't do anything.. this makes me want to do more heroin because I can't get anything done, the great conundrum of relapsing, because I succeed in most aspects of my life when I'm using Heroin, but once I quit, I become useless, and I can only last a few days like that before I either make enough money to score, or just come to the same old depressing conclusion: that life is better with Heroin. While on meth though, my creativity is awakened, my hopefulness is here again, and I don't miss H nearly as much.
A fair warning though! Some people get strung out on uppers just as bad as downers, and as an example of this, my room mate fucked his entire life up getting strung out on Meth. So if you have a propensity to go overboard on uppers and not be able to stop.. I would not do it. I use it for the first day or two definitely, then the Suboxone does the trick, both meth and Suboxone I stop using 5-7 days of Heroin free time.. (I almost said clean time.. haha) Call it polysubstance abuse, call it chipping, if you can get a hold of some Meth I'd at least try it, hey, if it sucks.. go back to feeling miserable with you're withdrawals, I guarantee time will at least go by faster.
