Is Heroin supposed to be this short acting ?

[BottleDryer]

I have a naturally low opiate tolerance , weigh 135lbs .

To give you a better idea on my usage/tolerance, the maximum I can take without feeling like im OD'ing / beggining to feel adverse effects;

Oxycodone IR - 15mg (Maximum)

I've been using opiates recreationally for over 3 years now.

So, I dosed 10mg of Heroin and snorted it . (Heroin is of course of unknown quality, just tan colored powder)

Within 5 minutes I started to feel that familiar warm opiate glow slowly overcome me. Although euphoria was very minimum.
Within 45-60 minutes later the feeling of sedation and comfort was practically gone, none existent.

I dosed another 10mg (maybe a little less this time) exactly 60minutes later after my first dose. This time, the come up / feeling of comfort didn't come.... hardly. Just feeling "mellow" and dazed more than anything.

So what gives ?
How long is a Heroin dose of 10mg to a noob like me supposed to last usually ?

Does this seem normal ?

I was expecting at least an hour and a half or something a long the lines of that , not 50 minutes .

I did dose on an empty stomach (well had some orange juice)...

It usually takes effect for me within 30 mins or so, but you said its slightly tan in color which is funny because whenever I had scored and it was either whitish in color or tan and sometimes it would effect me momentarily or it would take longer to kick in. I weigh 125 and I would have to do a whole baggies worth, it really just depends on the quality I suppose and who your getting it from and so on. Do a test on yourself and see how much you have to do to get a stable buzz and than when you get it again do the same thing and see what happens.

after ur first dose it wont hit u as hard, it will prolong it tho, the dose also affects the duration. the more u use the longer it will last

Yea you need more. The issue is that it isn't effecting you any longer, you just don't have enough for the threshold of effecting your motor skills and such for a long period of time. You are barely crossing over it.

I know that you say you can't do more than 15mg's of IR oxycodone but a lot of people don't realize that you can tolerate a lot more. Dope isn't known to be the longest lasting, and snorting it hits you harder but lasts a shorter time than if you ate pills.

In order of time (longest to shortest) for ROA-
Swallowing > Plugging > Snorting > IV w/ a syringe

In order of strength
IV w/ a syringe > Snorting > Plugging > Swallowing.

See how that works there? You give some and you take some. You definitely need more, and trust me you won't OD. If you can keep yourself awake and you aren't dropping shit all over the place and falling asleep in your own lap than you aren't close to OD.

**EDIT**

Now I don't suggest you go out and just snort a whole bag or two bags of dope. Start off slow, snorting it, give it 15 mins to kick in, and just gradually do more until you feel where you want. Or you can continually do small lines if you feel better that way. Your first couple of times you'll probably puke, most people do. Remember you can always do more, you can never "Do less" after it's up your nose.
