Hey guys, I've used Methamphetamine 3 times prior to today ( being #4 ) and had been using a glass bowl to smoke. However today, I decided to IV it. I have no previous experience with working with needles so I allowed my girl whom knows what she's doing to IV myself. Upon finding a vein and inserting the needle, I suddenly felt great Nasea and had to lie back down thinking I was going to vomit. I had successfully conquered the overwhelming feeling after about 45-60 seconds. It felt like I had not eaten for days when it had only been a few hours before. I must also add that when I've had shots by doctors in the past, I've never experienced this amount of Nasea. What could possibly be the cause of this?
Sorry if I butchered a rule or two in my post as I am brand new to the Bluelight world %)
 
Normal stuff. I would dry heave several times after shooting meth during the rush. Never actually vomited though, just intense nausea and a few heaves for a couple of minutes.
 
It's a common reaction to IV meth, or many IV stimulants in general. My experience with intravenous methamphetamine is limited but I fund it to be less vomit-inducing than IV cocaine or MDPV.. I wod litterally vomit before I shot cocaine sometimes, due to the anticipation.
 
agreed with znegative about i.v. cocaine. when I lived in FL and the crack was cheap and plentiful I would do a 50mg shot then run to the bathroom and hang on to the toilet, puke a little and heave some while the bells are ringing, feel like such shit, then get up and do another shot. insanity.

I spent a few months doing exactly that with a group of 'friends'. If we weren't vomiting or feeling as though we were about to vomit, we weren't high enough. Logic at it's finest, eh?
 
Back when I was IVing methamphetamine, I could do a solid shot, and then projectile vomit for at least 5 minutes, with another 5 to 10 minutes of dry heaving from my body wanting to vomit but there simply was nothing left. In fact at the end of it, my body would be puking up bile and stomach acid by itself.

I definitely don't recommend it; it's not healthy to vomit that much, and the presence of stomach acid in your mouth will corrode your teeth.
 
I've vomited before meth from the anticipation whilst waiting to score or after having just scored and waiting for an opportunity to shoot.

There have been a couple of instances where I have had a particularly string shot and projectile vomited....I would push the plunger, pull the needle out, feel the rush creeping up, get a cough and then the wave of nausea would hit...to be honest I didn't really care about it as by the time I vomited I'd be rushing that hard from all the dopamine flooding my brain that I felt godlike. Although my ideal shot would be big enough to feel the nausea but be able to hold off the urge to vomit, similar to what you did it seems.

Every IV user I know has experienced this at one point or another when doing a larger amount, I had a friend that would vomit after shooting less than 50mgs of only average quality gear!

If it makes you uncomfortable, do less in your next shot. Although be careful, one comes to love that out of control nauseating rush and you end up shooting successively larger amounts to recapture it. Try and have some nice long breaks (a month at least, more is better) in between your usages and as long as you get decent meth, the rush will hit like a train every time :-)

You didn't indicate if she actually injected the drug. If yes, probably just the drug, if no…read on. :)

Ill tell ya what you did. Nothing at all. Nausea, while not necessarily the overwhelming standard, is a very common physiological response to skin puncture. Perhaps it was evolutionarily helpful. Regardless, happens to lots of people. If is the circumstance, you'd have to train yourself into not getting nauseated by fairly frequent exposure to the skin puncture stimuli. For most, if you can ride it out until the drug is administered, that's going to be the "best" or most efficient retraining reward anyone could offer so the nausea would like resolve quickly.

You could also be having a phobic reaction or a Panic Attack. Many people feint at the sight of blood…see above explanation. But the nausea, lightheadedness, and the need to perhaps calm down, could basically mean that you were much more afraid of the process than you either realized, or could admit (fear, out of control screams of panic attack, and the symptoms line up nicely. Treatment is the same. Desensitization by frequent exposure. However this one could prove to be a bit trickier to resolve because it is more Pavlovian, and thus more complicated than the first one which was just a (Classical) stimulus / response. This one is stimulus / interpretation / response. IF this is your situation, i would imagine you'll pass through this still quickly, but it might rear up from time to time.

Of course see your Medical and Mental health professionals and get multiple opinions. (I am a mental health professional with a license and everything, but probably not where you live).
