Most of my veins, especially the ones near the surface of my arms and hands, are collapsed or occluded (blocked). My feet are also useless. I am by no means a heavy girl, but I'm not very muscular, so my veins don't really stand out anywhere on my body.... I was hoping some of you might know the general locations of some good veins in my legs, upper arms, and torso, so that I don't have to dig around randomly trying to find them. I'm getting pretty desperate, today I hit an artery by accident and it was unpleasant, to say the least. Please help, if you can.

And, before you tell me that I should quit, don't bother. I know exactly what I am doing to my body and my life and how horrible it is. So please, abstain from lecturing me. I beat myself up enough without someone else doing it for me.

Thanks in advance.

Stop IVing and plug it, your preferred veins require a rest. If you have rather clean dope, you may want to just IM your dose in a spot large like the legs/butt. Your veins should heal in a week since you abused them. Stay safe, stay informed..
 
Don't plug heroin, it is less effective than snorting, and can take an hour to reach full effect, vs snorting, that peaks within 5 minutes. He's right about IM, though. It is basically as effective as IV, just without the initial rush. But only IM if you are doing H, pills can give you an abcess. As for the veins, well that info is all over the web, and Bluelight.
