^^^ (Johnny) wow dude, take it slow there....
I would never advice someone with a full blown habit and dependence on a full agonist to shoot naloxone... That would be just... cruel!
If you are indeed a junkie you should know that stuff though, and you should't just pump stuff through your veins.
What the hell dude... you should know me by now, why in the hell would i advise someone to shoot naloxone? Yeah, it's called inverse rush man 8)
I was speaking in Theory, maybe i should have made that more clear. i wasn't talking about the experience, and i didn't say anything about it being pleasant, cause from what i read on this board most people are aware that naloxone is the kryptonite for all the addicts out there. For fuck's sake, some junkie isn't going to get some naloxone and starts shooting up that stuff. And if someone indeed thinks that is a good idea, well then... Go ahead but be prepared.
If you have no habit though, and you are not dependent, naloxone would be unpleasant cause it would kick you right out of the opiate world. But the resulting rush from shooting dope the next time would be just great, do we agree on that one?
While being brain-raped by the naloxone they could knock you out with a lotta benzos/barbs so you don't necessary feel the symptoms. That is done sometimes in medical facilities, and is refered to as "Rapid Detox" or the Waisman Method. For sure, nobody should ever try that in their home without medical supervision. You gotta be one helluva nutjob to do that without a medical team supervising you. And there are differences in the team doing the procedure too. Some people don't know the fuck what they are doing, while others know how to make it easier. Administering a skeletal muscle relaxant and something to knock you out for 8 - 10 hours during and after the procedure makes it a lot easier. From what i heard the muscle relaxant helps to prevent cramping and the resulting muscle stiffness and soreness after it's done.
PS: Yes, i know what a shot of naloxone feels like. Well not really a shot... When i was about to get clean from a small habit i could have coughed around with mild withdrawal for 3 - 4 days, or i could let it go in a big bang. I got my first shot of 2.5mg naloxone, and then we kept pumping that stuff into me at a rate of about 0.6mg/h for 4 more hours.
Trust me, you *get* a rush from a shot of Narcan, a fucking huge one. But it is about the opposite from the rush you get from shooting dope. It kinda feels like hell is being unleashed inside your body, and you just want one thing: to be dead. And it's incredible how fast your bowels go from rock hard to liquid fire. One can't even take loperamide for that stuff anymore with narcan in your system. I will post a video on youtube i find it, i think we actually got the expression on my face on cam when the Narcan went down my veins. Nothing you would wish for your worst enemy. But it was well worth it, when i knocked myeslf out with a massive dose of Valium i felt a lot better 24 hours after the last dose, and pretty much all of the physical symptoms were gone. The craving and fiending was enormous though.
So please stop telling me that i don't know what i am talking about. I have been there, i have done that, and if you seriously think that i would tell someone 'yeah, shoot some narcan, the next time you shoot dope is just gonna be great' then i can't help you man
There are some things i would like to know though. Could someone prevent dependence or tolerance after 'cleaning' their receptors at the end of a day with naloxone? I'd imagine if i take a shot of narcan at the end of every day when i am done with my opies that this could prevent a dependence. And i would suppose that the effects are nowhere as bad as if you administer narcan after becoming dependent for a while. This is entirely hypothetical, and under no circumstances anybody should ever try that!
I say it again just for you:
Don't take narcan or anything similar unless you actually overdosed, make sure you call 911 before you shoot, and get your ass hauled to the ER, since narcan has an effective duration of 1 1/22 - 2 hours, so it's possible to continue to overdose once the narcan has worn off.
