"Mind if I shoot up?"

I don't shoot up but have friends that do. I don't care if they do in front of me, hell I've bought needles for em before.
 
Shooting up is never something that people who do not shoot up really like to see or understand.

I kinda see it as taking a shit when I was doing it. Go get some privacy.

If other people are shooting up and some are not, you are still risking being labeled and treated differently by your peers.

I remember saying the exact title of this thread to some friends and their reaction was to just watch a bit and then leave the room in disgust.

I personally would keep a thing like that to myself.


You know what I have to say about that? FUCK 'EM! I, personally, prefer to hit it in private since I don't want any distractions. However, if a fellow drug user even attempted to talk shit to me for slamming it then I'd tear them a new fuckin' asshole before tehycould even finish. I understand those who don't inject would feel awkward and I respecrt that. But there is nothing disgusting about (venous intercourse) 8) just like sex, when it's clean and done safe then it's clean and not in any way gross. Just taboo for those who don't push it in their veins.
 
The biggest audience I've had was when I was stuck on a stretcher in a busy section of the ER. I did get some odd looks.
I'm not going to seek out a public place to do it, but if I'm out somewhere and I need it, I'm not going to go to the bathroom to do it.

If people are uncomfortable, too bad. My health and life comes before their comfort.
 
^ so your saying you have sex in front of people that don't want to watch?

Fuck no, man. I said I prefer to slam it alone since I prefer no distractions. I would slam in front of another IV user with no issues. So, not sure where the hell you even got that from. I said fuck their disposition towards the fact thati slam. If you re-read what I posted, you will also realize how I said I repected those who don't slam as long as they accept the fact I slam it. So, yes, I would have venous sex in front of another IV user since it's just the needle and me at that "point". I enjoy vidoes and would love to see an injection up close, but I'd be too into it for someone who doesn'tenjoy the spike with passion. Your statement was completely off. :sus:
 
^
Christ! you make it sound like porn.lmao

OT: For me it depends on what type of person it was.
If the dude was all strung out/head fucked etc and i couldnt trust him/her to clean up properly and leave sharps lying around then, no, they cant shoot up around my home.
If it was a close friend and i could trust them, then yeah, dig away.lol
Now this is wtf I'm talkin' about! Someone who can actually laugh and not trip on my shit. So, I'm about to "dig away" right now....:! Thanks for the laugh because it is porn to me and it comes out as is. ;)
 
Haha. I agree. I love shooting myself up.
This guy has been using longer than I have & he can't shoot himself up.
We were talking about it one day, and he said he was ashamed/ felt pathetic that he couldn't hit himself. lol
I reassured him that there are plenty of people out there who can't hit themselves so don't even worry about it.

But, boy.. is he missing out.
Ohhh fuck yeah he's missing out. I have to be the one to administer my shots. Too damn pleasurable andrewarding.
 
Oh okay I see what you mean now, srry I was mad high. Haha also mods don't like double (actually quadruple) posts man, you can edit your posts.
 
My circle of friends aren't needle users - one formerly, but that's it - but they aren't really hostile to the idea of most drugs. A lot of times we'll chill together and someone will pull out a joint and pass it around, or everyone will bring their own to the party we'll get pretty numb. It's times like this that I just want to ask that question "Mind if I shoot up?" Everyone else is relaxing, having a fun time, right? I hate having to go to some bathroom just so I can use one of my preferred drugs with my preferred ROA, but I feel like I'd upset people if I actually asked. Heroin is relaxing, not unlike weed in my eyes - the needle is just another way to get it into the body. Sometimes we'll score a little cocaine - it's cool to snort it and all, but it's just not my thing. I'm most comfortable with the needle. I don't judge my friends for anything, but I have to hide part of who I am.

Anyone else just wish they could shoot up, without being looked down upon? Anyone find a group of non-needle users who are comfortable with you shooting up around them? If so, how did it start?

I don't IV anymore, but when I did, most of the people I was around didn't do it either. The ones that knew me well didn't judge, but usually I only shot up at home anyway. If I was at a friend's house - or even in my own, if a friend was there - then I would usually go do it in the bathroom. I wouldn't ask "mind if I shoot up?" - I view it as a kind of personal, private thing. Like taking a crap or jerking off, it's fine if you do it, but I really don't like watching other people shoot up, or others seeing me do it. Even with a couple of friends who have seen me mainlining, under normal circumstances I'd always go do it in private.

EDIT: Just reading through the replies, seems like a lot of other people also used the analogies of jerking off or taking a shit. Nice.
I don't judge anyone for injecting, but I respect people a lot more for being aware of the fact that many people don't want to see it, and having the common courtesy (or due sense of shame, which is also fine, 'cause that's part of it for me too) to do it in private. And really, how much does it kill your buzz that you sometimes have to get up and go do it in a different room?
 
I would judge the hell out of anyone that pulled out a needle and started shooting up in an occupied room.
Some people just don't like needles but everyone I know frowns on anything harder than weed or is scared of it. I think if I had a good friend who had an IV problem I would want to watch if they didn't mind but wouldn't that be worse? (Having someone WANT to watch as apposed to just letting it happen..)
Also with a joint you share it round.. I would compare shooting up to going to Maccas and bringing home a couple burgers then sitting there while everyone else is just talking and just eating in front of everyone. Unless they are enjoying the same thing it is like you are excluding yourself.
 
all depends who I am w/. if I am w/ my friends who dont use but know I am a junkie, I still wont shoot infront of them. if I am w/ friends who use opiates but may NOT SHOOT, ill still SHOOT infront of them. I always said I'd never do this but there have even been times where I'd shoot another friend of mine who never used a needle before. I remember shooting a friend w/ a .2 shot of dope and watching him nod out; kinda scared me because I wasnt sure what was going to happen but he ended up waking back up and loving it! but watching him nod out scared the fuck out of me and I havent shot anyone up since.

if I am w/ my friends who are in the dope game then no way I am not shooting infront of them; last thing I want to do is waste and just sniff because they sniff; would be a waste of a good time and a waste of my money and dope.
 
Now this is wtf I'm talkin' about! Someone who can actually laugh and not trip on my shit. So, I'm about to "dig away" right now....:! Thanks for the laugh because it is porn to me and it comes out as is. ;)
Dig away, babe......dig away.lol

some background with medical procedures likely has de-sensitized me to sharps and bodily fluids in general.

Now, an interesting variable would be: how uncomfortable would everyone feel if someone pulled out a syringe and lube for rectal administration?lol
 
Mind if I record would be my next response, providing the person is clean and can slam the ditch where it's the best.
 
Don't ever shoot infront of non-injecters even if they use drugs. I have learnt IVers are looked down on everyone nearly. Also consider this: mif you shoot infront of people then you may inflict mental damage on people, like seeing blood, triggering people or promoting it to snorters/smokers making them become an IVer. Instead "protect them" from IV use as they wont handle it. :D

I feel your pain, but at the same time I would probably feel uncomfortable shooting up in front of people who aren't used to it. I'm guessing they would stare at me and I don't like being watched like that.

On the other hand, way before I ever used needles, I'm sure I would not have had a problem with someone shooting up in front of me. As long as they knew what they were doing. I don't want to be responsible for some idiot shooting up for the first time without any guidance, but if someone with a habit asked I'm sure I would have been fine with it. I guess maybe I'm more open minded than a lot of people. I try not to judge other people's choices but it seems like others constantly judge me for mine. :(


Now this is interesting as before I IV'ed I was the same, I always thought to myself "I'd rather them inject where if they OD they can be saved" remember near all ODs are behind closed doors.

Fuck those who look down on what is actually a superior method. I don't condone it, but I sure as hell don't respect fuck tards who have that type of outlook. I have no shame and don't give a fuck and would be inclined to slam in front of them just to scare them off. I repect non IV users who respect me and others who know what they are doing. Fuck those assholes who judge you. This is where I get my tough shit, hit the shit and make them split. Protect them? Dude, you need to protect your own ass and repect your ROA as you do theirs. Those who respect IV users should not be made to watch at all, but if one tied to talk down to me, I would serisoly hit it right there dead on and tell themn to get the fuck out. from that fuckin' shit and set 'em straight by putting them on the spot and making them explain how IV injection done correctly can be "looked down on:. Give 'em a show. I am only referring to the drug users who are afraid of this method, and try to justify their own methods as better? Umm, I would love to tear an new ass outta that one. DO NOT lower yourself to eat their shit. You demand respect, or slam in their face and tell them how the fuck it is. I don't tolerate that shit. Drug users hating on someone's ROA are my lunch. Have pride and slef respect, don't kiss their asses because you only give in to the disrespect and should toughen up for your own good. I would love to teach them respect.

Hey SB1981, I got a question for you. Do you enjoy the rush of the drugs or the actual method of injecting more? I am a non-IV user and not judging, just generally curious.
