ahh, my first time booting meth, my first time ever booting anything. i loved the rush smoking provided but curiosity got to me when i knew a few in my circle were IVers.
so i scored half a gram of crystal and had this friend mix .3 into a spoon and divide it into two even shots. one for him, one for me. i uttered those famous words of "this will be the one and only time i stick this in my arm". what a joke that turned out to be.
anyway, everything was set and sterilised, my arm pumped and vein popping out almost saying "feed me". i watched every little motion. the needle inserted, the pulling back on the plunger, that red plume throughout the barrel and finally the going down of the barrel. as i watched it go in unit by unit, no sooner than half way through the 30unit shot i felt the most amazing feeling in the world.
immediately i started sweating, my hairs were standing up, my heart beating a million miles and hour. i wanted to sit, i wanted to run, really i didnt know what i wanted to do. anyone who's shot meth knows the feeling.
after that i struggled with an IV meth addiction on and off for a few years of heavy using, always IV. i'm now about 5 weeks clean, my longest stint in a while. from 18-20/21ish i was using the most, up to 1-1.5g daily. for the last 3 years i've generally gone on benders only to clean myself up for a few weeks to relapse.
i've also had problems with IV opiates but am a pain management patient with sufficient meds to really tempt me from chasing that hit everday, even though im not IVing my fent i still abuse it. opiates were never a "once only thing" for me to be honest, i'll always have that longing for a nice shot of morphine or whatever i get my hands on from time to time.
