hi everyone, i'm barely 105 pounds and my drug history is nearly clean, i smoked weed a couple times and yesterday i rolled with a half pill for the first time and it made me hallucinate. also a bottle of beer makes me feel drunk. what i am trying to say is, i have a low tolerance. so. i am going to try injecting heroin, for the first time obviously. i know everyone is different but you now have an idea about my tolerance. how much heroin would be okay? and minimum how much heroin would make me od and maybe die? sorry if my english sucks, i am not a native speaker. thanks.
 
If one beer makes you drunk, you need your liver checked, it should have no problem with one shot of alcohol.

We can't really answer this, because H varies wildly in potency, and frankly, someone with no opioid experience whatsoever has no business with IV dope. You should try snorting first, to see how it makes you feel. Half a point up the nose, to gauge potency. Either way, without a tolerance, you'll likely puke. Take an anti-emetic 30-60 minutes prior to dosing.(like Benadryl, for instance.

Someone else will likely chime in, but I'm personally not comfortable helping an opioid Virgin break their cherry with IV heroin!
 
You should always assume it is pure when dosing. If you can't measure out 5-10 mg or 0.005-0.010 with an error range of +0.005 you shouldn't even try messing with it. This is to dangerous and addictive of a compound to just try it without being able to measure the above or have any idea what a dose is... Hell if it's pure I'm sure 15-30 (0.015-0.03) mg could end up being too much leading to death.

My advice is to just toss the supposed "heroin".... The only use of that drug induces sleep on to of the pain killing properties. Even then there are much better choices of opiates used to manage pain. You should not try heroin alone for the first time and anyone who helps you do it does not have your health or best interest in mind.

Edit: none of those mg amounts are recommended doses just examples of small measurements.

How do you go from smoking weed "a couple times" and dabbling once with mdma straight up to IV heroin?

I beg you to reconsider EVER trying H at all.
 
Holy shit besides that history your really thinking of injecting first time..... Don't do it you serriously are risking death with one shot.
 
This is a bad idea. If you are set on trying heroin then you need to establish a tolerance first before trying to IV it. The smallest of doses is likely to get you sick or worse, so why not try a few pain killers first or sniff the H instead?

I found hydrocodone to be very similar to heroin, but unfortunately my tolerance had become such that the amount of hydrocodone needed to get me high was not financially feasible anymore, hence my plunge into heroin (well oxycodone was my actual 'stepping stone').

What I'm trying to say is that you would enjoy the high more from a few vicodin or oxys as well as being way safer than if you go straight to heroin. If all you can get is heroin then sniff the smallest bump you can make out and then go from there.
 
Yes, don't do it! I did and almost died... too much~ then built a tolerance anyway, quit ... a month of misery from withdrawals ... relapsed, then overdosed recently, as I used what I use to use (which if you start with you could od), and now need to do another home medical detox while working. It's not worth it, it will take the person you know to be you away. Many don't come back... Please don't take this the wrong way. :)

If you chose to, maybe practice some harm reduction and smoke it, but still it can take you fast... Or a pill at least... not straight to heroin... Just my 2 cents.

This is a really bad idea for anyone. Snort a small line if you have to do it all. See how you feel, snort another small line, wait again. etc. DO NOT just load up a bag of dope into a needle and slam it. You'll most likely end up in the er or meeting your God.
 
you've never even tried an opiate and you want to jump straight to IV heroin?
bad bad idea man.
try smoking/snorting it first (if not trying it at all isn't an option for you) starting at a very low dose, see how you feel and redose accordingly.
heroin is a potent opiate man, be careful.
besides, if you're so sentitive to drugs you may end up puking your guts out for a few hours.

good luck man and stay safe :)
 
I'm just going to add.. Don't bs yourself and don't play games with yourself. You don't need to use because you have..... You can always choose not to use. There is no position where you have to use unless you are physically dependent. As everyone says do not start that road.

This advice is for everyone
 
I'm sorry but that is a stupid fucking idea. At Least do some hydrocodone, then move up to oxycodone. Don't go immediately to heroin. You'll end up injecting more than you can handle and stop breathing or drown in your puke when you're asleep. You've only smoked weed a couple times and you're moving up to smack? What the fuck is going through your head?? I'm sorry but I can't pretend like this isn't a retarded idea. Good luck.
 
I almost think this thread is a troll as I don't believe anyone could be this stupid/absurd.

You'd be surprised... I know of someone who stopped smoking weed to smoke tar. Some people just don't think about their well being.
 
All I can say is don't touch it. I've been doing drugs for at least 10 years. I have a lot of self control. I've never gotten addicted to anything and I've always had self control with everything I've done. Accept heroin. My addiction to heroin was a very dark time in my life. I've been clean off it for 4 years but the damage it caused still clouds over me. All I can really say is don't touch it. While you may be a troll I still feel obligated to say this.

We need more people in our community who feel obligated as you do. Thank you for not taking the seriousness of the possible situation lightly.

Yes, I remember back in the day a "friend of a friend" famously took up heroin so he could "get off the bongs" 8(
