Morphine (I.V.) - First time - Beautiful.. Natural

[Kerrigan]

Morphine IV - First time - Beautiful..

I can't believe my PC rebooted just before I could enter this report!

Basically I'll have to shorten it down for you. It was quite long and detailed but it's 01:30 here and I'm tired.

I recently acquired seven 10mg Sevredol instant release 10mg morphine tablets (blue, marked with "IR | 10"). I used one just as a tester, as I'm quite opiate naive, except I have plenty of experience with codeine.

The second attempt to IV these went wrong too: I added more than 1ml of water because they wouldn't dissolve and had to do two injections, but squirted the second all over my leg. (I licked my leg )

But the third attempt was a wonderful, beautiful success.

I took the three tablets (30mg) and carefully removed the blue outer coating of each with a wet kitchen towel. I placed them in the bottom of an upturned diet coke can and crushed them with the butt of a cigarette lighter. Then I withdrew 1ml of "Sterile water for injections BP" and squirted it onto the semi-crushed tablets using a 21G needle and 5ML syringe.

After some grinding, shaking, crushing etc, I finely had an injectable solution, and so I took a piece of 100% cotton wool bud and rolled it into a tight ball, then dropped it into the solution. It puffed up. I had difficulty withdrawing it into the needle (same 21G 5ML) and ended up just pushing the syringe down hard onto the cotton and sucking it up. I then squirted it into a B&D 29G 1CC insulin needle and was ready to go.

I used my good old reliable vein in the crook of my arm. For those of you who inject, you just KNOW when you've hit a vein, even if you don't see the blood register. It slowly seeped into the chamber then I pressed on the plunger. I injected the solution without any problems, and checked a couple of times that I was still in the vein, then just for fun, pulled a bit of blood back into the needle and injected it back in.

The rush was interesting to say the least. I don't have a lot of memory of it because I immediately followed the shot with a few choice benzodiazepines. But I can safely say that, at least for me, it was nothing like codeine. It was warm and fuzzy. It actually made me think of poppies, it felt somewhat natural. Not synthetic. Beautiful. Wonderful. I was warm all over but I could stand and talk and assure my anxious friends, who'd crowded round to both help and spectate, that I was fine. I was more than fine infact. Fine was a mere dot on the horizon of my current emotional state. It was bliss.

I spent the next hour or two relaxing on the most comfortable sofa I've ever sat on, nodding on and off. I even experienced those dreams that seem so real, when you open your eyes you wonder where the hell your plate of chips have gone. Heheheh.

But I also have a few questions for you experienced opiate users. If you were opiate naive like me, what would be your ideal IV morphine dose? Also, I have a strange long mark up my left arm which looks like spots of red. It's as though I've suddenly grown a line of tiny red spots, about three inches in length up my left arm (I DID inject in both arms, but right is fine), is it likely that these are related to the injection, and should they clear up? If so, how long should it take?

Today I visited "the Body Shop (tm)" (that shop smells SO nice) and applied some of their vitamin A skin care cream (free sample) to my arms and the injection sites. Should using this help?

Thanks for the replies. It's very likely I'll be able to get my hands on a little heroin soon (tomorrow), and I'm curious to see how it compares.

Sounds like a great experience! I could surely lecture you on the dangers of IV opiate use, but what is the point? You will do what you want to do. Please keep it clean though. Use a brand new one-piece insulin syringe every time, with a new needle of course, properly sterilize your injection site, cook the substance well, and try to use a better filtering process. I would suggest some .2 or .8 micron filters if you want to be extremely safe. Otherwise, forcing the solution through some stacked coffee filter circle's in another syringe would work well, much better than cotton. Sterile water is a must, as is a nice band-aid post injection with some neosporin on it to promote healing. Rotate those sites appropriately, and you should do alright.

I really don't know what to say besides all that, and I probably didn't even need to say what I did in the above paragraph, as you seem to have things under control. There is one website that is great for these things, though.

Good luck with it all.

Well I have constant access to sterile 5ML needles, 21G needles, sterile saline solution and sterile water. I also bought 100 1ML 29G insuline syringes online. However I don't have any access to micron filters: needle exchange programs don't appear to have a clue about them in the UK (is it me or do we just seem so far behind? No harm minimization other than "don't share needles" etc).

I could find micron filters online, but the cheapest I've seen them for is more than I'd be willing to pay (hundreds of dollars). I thought that perhaps it would be possible for a bluelighter in a more enlightened country to send me a few via mail, and that would work.

Or I could just simply do without, knowing the dangers (and keep my fingers crossed, before they turn black) I doubt I'll be shooting a lot of pills anyway so it might be a bit of a waste trying to get some of those micron filters.

goldenbrown: I'd love to be as safe as possible when shooting anything. Thanks a lot for the advice. I already knew a lot of it but it's still good to hear back from an experienced user!

Oh, and do you cut the coffee filters to fit the syringe or what? I'm a little confused as to how you prepare this syringe. Also, do you expel the solution out of it, or suck it through it? Thanks.

christopher_jd: you're completely right there. I'll never be able to forget that sensation (well, perhaps if I take enough klonopin...). My friend with the morphine pills only has a limited supply, and so it can't last forever.

I'm really interested in trying smack, and infact a lot of opioids. I have no connections at the moment though (a good thing?)

I'm looking for something that can keep me nice and buzzed/warm/happy for a very long time. I'm thinking of trying methadone or buprenorphine after the heroin, if it even happens at all. I'm taking a lot of risks in obtaining these said opioids. They should all be legal!

Also there's the aspect of my friends. They tell me they're worried about me and want me to stop taking drugs altogether. I'm not some hardcore junkie, and I'm quite inexperienced at the moment but I've dabbled in a few things; tripped a few times, rolled a few times, shot vodka (8)), and some other things. I'm trying to get them to accept me for who I am, and accept that I will use drugs until I'm willing to stop (it hasn't become a problem yet at all, so what are they worried about? They believe the media hype: "one pill kills you" etc etc).

But I'm really glad I have these friends because I know I can depend on them if I ever do need help.

Wow this turned into a long post. It's early morning here and I'm feeling quite energetic and happy. There's going to be a big celebration tonight at my house (two of my best friends FINALLY got together) and that's where I'll be having some more experimentation.

Cheers guys. I love bluelight!

Interesting report

 

[Chubba75]

Nice report IV opiates are beautiful, and although morphine isn't the best, it's unique and gives a very distinct high (you said it felt natural, I'd say you were dead on).

Don't worry, I'm not going to lecture you :D Heroin is definetely my favourite opiate, and no doubt you would like it too. The high of heroin is quite long (4 - 5 hours) and it is incredibly sedating... which for some can be a plus (I love my opiates as sedating as they come) and others hate it. Heroin is called smack for a reason, if you're the sort of person that enjoys sitting on a couch/lying in bed in complete euphoria nodding out, not really doing anything... it might be right up your alley.

I haven't encountered any instant release morphine pills, but I shoot a few MS Contin (60mg's). I'm lucky enough to live in Australia, and we have easy access to micron filters. Although I might get flamed for my response... if you don't (and will never) have access to micron filters, I think trying to find a connection for smack would be a better option, especially if you make it a regular thing (and you will, no need to to lie to yourself) to shoot pills.

I never applied cream or anything to my arms and I inject with Terumo 27G's (pic under my name)... a BD 29G (I've used them before) shouldn't really leave any tracks, or they should heal by themselves in 48 hours or so.

Damn, it's so great to read a well written IV opiate report, props on that Please excuse me if anything in my post makes no sense or I've spelt things wrong, cause I don't read over my posts.

Have fun, shoot safe and don't forget your priorities... I'll see you on the nod

 

[Kerrigan]

I really would love to try heroin, and I'm going to try finding some in this city some time soon. It's irritating when you have no connections. Even drug friends have told me I'm a dirty smackhead for using needles (hypocrites 8(). I doubt I'll be able to get those instant release morphine tablets again any time soon, most likely some 30mg MSContins though.

If I do get those I'm going to follow all of the advice given to me in my coffee filter thread in Other Drugs.

The feeling was so great. Even as the plunger went in, I suppose this must have been the rush I've heard so much about. Reading your post Chubba is making me really really want some more!

I will score some real dope soon! I just have no idea of how to cop on the street, or even if there's any heroin around in my town. I've heard of people asking the homeless. I'll try that.

There are also people that my friends and I know as "insulin men". They walk over to you and flash an insulin pen and say "man ive ran out of insulin, lend me 35 pence for a bar of chocolate please". Hrm. Could be smack addicts? Could just be beggars.

Funnily enough, last time one of them came over to my group of friends and said his line, I told him I was diabetic too and I had insulin needles and insulin in my bag, and he ran off.

Cheers. %)

 

[Chubba75]

Reading your post Chubba is making me really really want some more!

Ahh, don't say that on this board... they hate that kind of stuff

Though it's common sense... if you like morphine, you're going to love diamorphine (heroin). I'm not being the evil advocate here but it's strange that people can reply to posts such as "should I take ecstasy???" with "YES, OF COURSE YOU SHOULD!!1!1!" but we can't discuss IV opiates in the same manner... oh well :D

Have fun %)

Not to pick on you, but this raises an interesting point.

1. IV opiate discussion is always welcome in here, if not to break down the social barriers and stigmas it carries.
2. I personally think the fine line between promoting the merits of a substance and telling or encouraging someone else to do it is a hard and fine one to walk, people should make their own decisions and do their own research first. So for example, when someone asks "should I take this pill", imho, it's no different from "Should I shoot this OC?" , and the answer should always be "It's your choice, know your body, substance, source and be safe."

Vis a vis the red spots on arms, I'm curious to know if you are following a healthy diet? Exercising? Taking vitamins? Moisturising your arms regularly?

 

[Kerrigan]

Mean Girl: I would say I'm eating a healthy diet, eat about five pieces of fruit a day, drink my eight glasses of water etc etc. I take vitamins A, C and D every day, and I also run every weekday morning (too lazy on weekends ).

The red spots have disappeared, and my arms look perfectly fine now, aside from a yellow bruise on my right arm. I must perfect my IV technique...

I'm not moisturising my arms regularly. Funnily enough, I was on a higher than usual dose of benzos when I walked into the body shop with a friend and asked about their skin care creams and if I could try one.

Apparently the girl working there was telling me I shouldn't apply the face cream to my arms and should use the body cream instead, but I didn't hear a word of it and continued to apply it vigorously to my bruises and injection sites. I then thanked the staff of the Body Shop and walked away smiling. I can only wonder what the hell they thought I was on.

As far as telling people to use opiates goes, I know that whatever anybody says now, I'm doomed! I've read it takes time to truly appreciate the opiate high, and if that's true then I'm off to rob a pharmacy!

In all seriousness, I will take the advice of the people on this site into account, and will try to carry out my 'experiments' as safely as possible. I have already learnt quite a lot from the users of this board and am very grateful for the help I've been given.

I have another question: will exercising my arms help me get bigger veins, or more veins to appear? If so, what sort of exercises?

Cheers. %)

 

[Chubba75]

I have another question: will exercising my arms help me get bigger veins, or more veins to appear? If so, what sort of exercises?

YES! This is such an important point when you become a regular IV user, if you want to keep your veins that is

Pushups work, but aren't ideal. In my opinion, chinups (hanging from a bar, then pulling yourself up) are the best exercise for your arms, particularlly the crook (where you'll be injecting for a long while). I started slow, doing 3 sets of 5 every 3nd day... now I'm up to 3 sets of 10 every (big long ones, arms completely extended then slowly pulling myself up till they're against my chest) 2nd day and my arms are really bulking up and I haven't lost a vein... they're actually growing in size and I only inject in 3 different ones (probably 600 - 700 times over the past 5 months).

Chinups work wonders for your veins, so does regular exercise such as running (long distance running is good :D 2 - 3 mile twice or so a week) and a healthy diet (fruits very positive, so at least you're diet is good).

The earlier you start the better... but don't think you're "doomed" now that you've started IV opiates... I compare it to life, you have your ups (being clean, moderate use) and you have your downs (addiction). You will experience both (if you continue using) most probably, but aren't destined to one or the other.

Later :D

 

[Kerrigan]

Thank you, Chubba mate!

I will definately start with some arm exercises to keep my veins in good condition. IV has easily become my favorite route of administration, and I plan to be injecting for a long time!

I know I'm not doomed.

I'll be getting some more morphine soon. I cannot get it regularly, but this next time I will waste none of it. I will definately have a fun time, and I'm sure my friends will too. They're curious, but definately scared of needles, although they all wanted to watch me shoot up for some reason.

Life's still good. I'm broke but not for long. Hunting for opiates! Waiting on the arrival of a few 'special' packages from overseas, so there'll probably be another IV trip report soon, although it won't involve any opies

But I have my fingers crossed that somehow I'll manage to find some heroin. Gasp! If I'm desperate enough, I'll find it!

Cheers for the advice. %)

 

[Chubba75]

I consider morphine to have the most severe side effects of any opiate I've tried, once you try heroin you probably won't want to go back (although there are a select group of people that prefer the morphine high, strange buggers ). Just be careful showing your friends IV... try and discourage it, but if they push hard for it (they're going to shoot anyway) show them how to do it safely... but NEVER encourage IV use... offering to shoot your friends up for there first time... stuff like that.

Well, not much more to be said, looking foward to your IV heroin report in the future (there's nowhere near enough opiate trip reports, let alone IV) :D

 

[Splatt]

mmmm IV morphine

I have recently acquired some heroin, and tried IV 15mg (1/2 pack), that did very little, so I shot the other half pack in my other arm(30mg) total). That seemed to do alright. I am a very well experienced opiate user (sorry to say) and I was rather unimpressed with heroin. The rush was good but subtle, and it gave me a nasty headache after about 2-3hrs.

I did not give up though, I ended up spending around $100 (5 packs) altogether. The first time I tried it, I did the 1 pack in 2 halves, then I got another pack and snorted that whole thing because my needles were being kept at a friends .

A week later, I got 3 more and did a pack at once, and it was a pretty nice buzz, not much different than splitting them up. I never got the nod feeling though. I nod ALOT by drinking 500g of poppy seed tea, and get more powerful effects (IMO). I didn't want to do 2 packs at once, although my 'connection' was doing 2 at a time, he had done 4 already that day, it was new to me, so I didn't want to over do it. I think I would have been fine doing 2, but the high just wasn't what I was expecting from such a famed opiate.

I have a huge respect for opiates, and I will probly always play with them, but I think I am gonna kick heroin out of my menu, it is too expensive($20 a hit), and isn't very powerful in comparison to my poppy seed tea($5.85 a hit). It was a fun experience though, I had always wanted to IV an opiate, and FINALLY I did, and come to find out, it wasn't that great (I would like to IV some Dilaudid though).

Anyways, Much Love and Be Safe

Mmm, I shouldn't say this but thankyou for bumping this thread. It reminded me of what a brilliant time I had last year and really lifted my mood up! It was also the most deadly time, though. Drug abuse is a double edged sword, or rather, it is for me at least; I get to experience such amazing states of consciousness, but unfortunately the state of mind without these chemicals to pleasure me becomes very dull and boring. Almost frightening...

I am currently withdrawing from benzos, after tapering down to 1mg clonazepam from 4mg. I have no intention of stopping them; they've simultaneously enriched my life and caused me misery. Definitely double edged...

It's great being able to enjoy drugs to the fullest without having to worry about tolerance, depdendance, supply, etc. This is why I've given up needles for the time being. I don't see any need to use them right now, and for some reason my arms always feel extremely weak after injecting something into them. They've taken so much abuse, and have been a multitude of colours over the last several months.

I still haven't had the opportunity to try heroin! However, I'm content without it. There is no way I'd be able to control my use and adding another monkey to my back would probably break it.

Opiates are wonderful. They are definitely my favorite class of drugs by far. I don't think I could live without them, even though I have managed to avoid physical dependance. I do tend to use them more when I'm lacking my much needed benzodiazepines, and they cover up the pains of the body and the pains of the soul quite well.

But as with all things, they're best used in moderation. I'm not really sure if I'd want to try and deter people from experimenting with opioids as that just seems a little arrogant of me, oh, and of course futile. I have no idea what to say about that actually, because it's pretty difficult for me to try and offer advice, being the immense hypocrite that I am.

Heheheh, I do quite enjoy that morphine from time to time though (I must be a strange bugger, eh Chubba? ), but I'll save my greedy self indulgence for the moment until I manage to sort out my life. There's no way I can blame drugs. I blame my lack of will power.

But then again I was pretty stupid and naive at the time (and I haven't changed! ) and was willing to do anything. All supposedly because I was going to die anyway. Tsk, so what? We all die. Is that any reason to throw it away? Life isn't all about me anymore anyway, and that helps...

Again, thanks for bumping this thread, it's caused me to think about certain things. I may not be able to live without drugs, but I can definitely pull my finger out and try to make my life into something far more desirable. Aww.
