Okay...I've done heroin three times...all times snorted....first time about a month ago....then i bought a bundle last monday and blew five bags along with two friends all together....did 2 by myself on thursday and had an incredible experience...and tonight my buddy bought 5 bags and all three of us did them...i dont think the bags tonight were as potent because i didnt feel nearly as euphoric and the last times....

my question is....is my tolerance already up that fast?

I didn't see it coming like that...i blew two bags myself tonght....two bags of the different shit on thursday and felt way better....

I really dont wanna start shooting it...just seems like a bad idea...but lots of people say "oh yeah...9 times outta 10 snorting leads to shooting...

should i just cut back all together?? Was the shit just less potent that i got tonight?

please don't tell me to "search" this because i tried and couldn't find any legit info....

thanks again!
 
it is possible that your tolerance has built up, and like most things, the same with heroin, you will not get as high as you did the first time. it also could be that the person you're getting the H from doesn't have strong heroin. i've heard most people say take a match head size bump then go from there. no batch of heroin will be the same so just be careful and do small amounts to start until you get to where you wanna be.
 
Street drugs will always vary in quality, that is what you are experiencing. Tolerance doesn't build up in just 2 days of using.

Should you lay off? Absolutely yes.
 
Yah, I agree you don't have tolerance yet-just weak dope. And you already mentioned shooting it, we all thought it was a bad idea at first. But be warned, once you use a spike you can never go back. It will be with you for the rest of your life

yup, that's exactly right.


i know once upon a time i thought that shooting wouldn't be a good idea (...until i felt it). and in my situation, i created two addictions at that point, the dope and the needle itself. craziness.
 
Dear mr thread starter,




I'm not going to tell you to use the search engine, rather I'd like to tell you a story then I'll answer.

I was diagnosed with cancer at age 11. I took 60 mg of codeine 6 times a day for six months. Opiates/oids are blatantly cruel. They literally take over your natural happiness and trick the body/mind so much (whether you like it or not) that when you stop, the whole world quite literally starts falling around you. After my treatment I was slowly weaned off, though I'd been on them so long that I truly was ravenous in my attempt to keep taking it. Hell had begun. And it took another 6 months for me to even be able to feel a tiny bit happy. This was on one of the weakest opiates. I fiended so hard that I would not hesitate to steal opiates from those I loved. It was the worst time of my life. I still have the occasional urge to use opiates when I have the chance even though I know that I'll be a shithead and feel like shit for 2 weeks after my 6 hour "high". The high isn't even that good to be honest. You get the worst bang for your buck in terms of withdrawl.


Anyway I'm here to tell you that heroin=devil and please save yourself.:(:(:(




peace





p.s. yes tolerance can go up that fast and with ranging purity, maybe you want a tolerance...
 
Yes your tolerence is prolly astronomical by now.. in a few more days of using you won't even feel it at all..

You know what you must do know.. get on your way to walgreens and get those rigs and do it.. its calling ur name.. terrapin.. terrapin..
 
I had the same problem.. I was into OCs for almost 3 years.. went onto dope now started snortin it got real faded then it started decreasing then I started shootin and got way more rocked.. it all depends on the shit you get but just careful with anything you do I guess... I was always terrified of needles but now I dont think id ever snort dope again..... if anything take a break for a few days and see if your tolerance went down.
 
It goes up so fast for me because I've been doing it or so many years. I need to raise my dose a bag everyday if I want to keep getting high. And once you've been addicted and go back it feels like you never left. I would be using a .2 one day and 2 weeks later id be doing a gram or two a day. It gets ridicules after awhile and if your smart you give up.
 
just quit while you're ahead.
i know the terrors of opioid dependency and as stated above, it's hell on earth. once you're addicted, everything else in life without the drug seems boring and pointless. get away from that shit while you can. people wouldnt constantly be telling you this if it wasnt true.
 
I agree with much of what has been said above. The quality of the drugs you have been consuming will indeed vary greatly, unless you are in an area that has a very structured and busy open air drug market (Philly, Baltimore, etc.) The potency in these areas, while varying, tendsto be quite high. Also, the method with which you started using, nasally, affects the body differently than smoking or injection. Finally, everybody is different. My initial experience with opiates was with pills and I noticed my tolerance increased greatly in just a few days. I went from feeling stoned and nauseated after consuming a 10mg Vicodin tablet, to merely feeling buzzed from an 80mg Oxycontin in just two weeks. This of course sucked for me (depending on how you wanna look at it!) because when I started using heroin, my habit started to cost me a fortune almost right out of the gate! And when you get to that point, you are just trying to get well. The "nod" I was always looking for was never to be found again. I am currently in a methadone program, stabilized after several months, so I no longer feel high after taking it, and it only costs $13 a day. This may be the road you're headed on, my friend, just FYI! If I had kept my heroin use to an occasional thing, I would have gotten a lot more enjoyment out of it!
 
Its Too Late....

Mate, i dont want to be the bearer of bad news, but if you DO NOT STOP USING HEROIN COMPLETELY RIGT NOW!! then your already on the slippery slope downwards.

Most people start smoking it purely recreationally, thinking that 'im never gonna degrade myself my shooting it up' ........but it gets hold of you....before you realise whats happening its got you in its soothing grip.....you'll then just think 'well i'll have just one go shooting up - just to see what it does - then never ever again'

But by then your screwed......heroin makes you lie to yourself, lie to your friends, lie to your family and do anything for it.......trust me...ive been there....

my veins are gone....im on methadone daily but still using on top....really cant see myself ever being free of the grip its got hold of me with......

PLEASE NEVER EVER PICK UP THAT FIRST SYRINGE!!!!!
PEACE.
 
I also agree with most everyone. You should just lay off for a while. You've only used a total of three times in your life and in the past MONTH... and allready willing to shoot? Crazyness to me. I was railing it for a while a year or so before I even started smoking it. Then one night a "friend" ( not so much anymore) convinced me to let her hit me up... I never looked back. I even had a fear of needles... not after that. If you pick that spike up you'll fall hard and quick. It will mess your life up.
You use 3 days in a row and your hooked. I will warn you... Its the worst sicknss in the world once you want to get off it. And even if your physically off it, mentaly you will allways be an addict.
My advice stay far away from that sh** if you value your life.
 
To the OP, I would listen to the advice here which is to quit now while you're ahead.

I dont know one person who's life is better on heroin.
I dont know one person who doesnt get addicted after so many months of using
I dont know one person who's managed to get off the junk easily without going through hell first

Is it all really worth it??
