Only One Part of the Ritual

[Papaverium]

Does anyone else just get a really satisfying feeling from not only your ritual alone, but certain aspects of it...?

For instance.... the sound of the crrrrunch when I crush ketamine with the card on the mirror..... it's so satisfying just to hear it. It's music to my ears.

Or the tapping of the needle as you get the bubbles out
Or the blood going in when you register......

Just the little quarks in the ritual that make it so addictive for you?

Laying the bed of ash or inert herb (like mullein) in the bowl before depositing the deems when using a bong

Flick of the bic. Smell of the first toke from a cig. The look of the smoke dancing in the breeze. Grinding down the green leaves. Rolling them. Lighting them. Smoking them. Packing the bong. Smoking the bong.

Chopping powder. Crushing pills.

Yeess the chopping powder and crushing pills.

I used to crunch my k in my spoon with the rig cap and it was a pain!!
still way more fun then a vial lol

I just push my bicep against my side instead a tourniquet,
the feeling of your blood flowing back in up a lil registering the shot most of all the rush...

every aspect of handling the syringe

the redness appearing in the tip of it... the thumb sliding the plunger down... 8( its a fucking romance! gosh im hot for needles

just thinking about it makes me horny for shooting up... i should stay away a few months from any type of IV till it fades away a bit from memory (does it ever do?)

in a less intense/passionate/irational/destructive manner, i enjoy rolling joints carefully and the very first drags of the cigarette...

I knew we were long lost broj's.. Ahhhh, you guys talking about shooting makes me crave a shot something fierce.
Whenever you prep, insta-register to dark blood, just pouring into the rig.. The rush.. Nodding out while smoking a cig after doing so. I really fkn miss dope sometimes, literally right now being one of those moments.
I'll always love it, no matter how much I've fucked myself over IV use.. If I'm doing a drug I used to shoot, there's about a 100% chance I will end up doing it that way %).

Grinding up weed, folding & rolling up a tip for a joint, crushing and fixing up really fine and uniform lines of powder, stirring to collect freebase cocaine from ammonia... Those are my favorite parts of drug rituals.

You know it nikka macs from different sacs

And I feel you bruh bruh that post was a very triggering walk down a shitty ass memory lane.
almost feels justifiable

My usual ritual is very specific because it involves another person. I will smoke heroin myself when he's not with me, but my ex has lit the heroin up for me to get more of the smoke about 95 percent of the time that I have been using. And I've used hundreds of times. The other 3 percent has involved dealers or others lighting up for me. 2 percent, I do it myself in a bathroom. I can do it on my own, but the boyfriend is such an integral part of the process that it literally does not feel the same when I light the stuff up myself.
Ohh mistakes that have been made...

Strange no mention of coke? Chasing it round and chopping it up on a mirror... the smell, the rub of the dust on the gum afterward. I reckon all drugs have an element of ritual, esp. heroin, or anything IV. Dope of course, rolling spliffs.... and, as mentioned, tobacco. Or pouring out a fine brandy and swirling it in the crystal glass, a fine wine, getting the head right on a pint of beer.

The feeling i get when all I have been thinking about is oxy and I finally get some and I'm in my way home to do it it's so relieving I feel good before I even do any.
