Prepping coke for IV use..

[Shambles]

Unless theres a difference in hit your looking for via these methods that I haven't tried.

Pretty sure that's the case. Can't speak for anybody else but when I shot coke I did it for the rush. The bigger the rush the better. I want to be left reeling - rabbit-in-the-headlights pupils, ears ringing, vision throbbing, heartrate going through the roof and pouring rivers of sweat - in the aftermath of each hit. And I want each hit to be stronger than the last. This is precisely how and why doses can get sillyhigh when IVing stuff like coke - you're chasing an already extreme experience and trying to make it even more intense. You definitely wouldn't get away with sitting in a pub chatting with mates or whatever. And wouldn't want to be cos you need to be working on the next hit as soon as you've got one in and people are just a distraction. I barely even took time to really enjoy the rush cos I was so concerned with getting the next one prepped. This is totally different from the kinda casual coke use most probably think of. Rather, this is what IV coke use looks like. Did to me and those I knew anyway.

Addictive/compulsive use is a world away from casual, controlled, recreational use and IV is obviously a fast-track to addiction so of some relevance here. Obviously you may not last long if you go balls out on your very first shot but after that first one you're gonna know your dose anyway. Not everybody who tries injecting is gonna switch to it exclusively but plenty will. I think anybody thinking about IVing their DoC for the first time needs to really think about why they want to do so. Why do they want that particular experience knowing that it's all about getting as insanely high as is physically possible without actually dying? Are they ready for this to take over their life completely? Do they really think they can leave it as a one-off?

Not ODing first time out comes pretty low on the list, in my experience, cos anyone likely to be considering IV use probably has pretty hefty experience and/or tolerance and probably has a good idea of their own limits and the kinda coke they happen to have available to them, People who don't already hang around habitual IV users really should think long and hard about deciding to try IV use cos they not only have a number of questions surrounding potential changes in lifestyle than tend to come attached to IV use, they also don't have people around in the flesh to get advice about stuff like dose from the perspective of somebody who knows the coke scene there and would (hopefully) know what to do should there be any immediate issues. Shooting up alone is pretty risky at the best of times really, but especially so if you've never done it before.

Heheh I see our drug habits are similar yet again oh shambolic one, for the umpteenth time. I shot coke to basically get as close to death as possible....nausea, freight train in the ears, blurry vision...and then yes, too busy preparing the next shot to actually "enjoy" such a skull and heart crushing rush. I haven't done such in a few years...well, I guess I went on a few day crack and citric IV bender mebbee a year ago but that was the first time in ages...

But funny, when I think of such, I get sick to my stomach, trembly, and crave such....nothing rewires the pleasure circuitry like IV coke...not even peevee IME.....tis fucked up!

If you have really pure, pure coke you can do a "dry hit"....meaning you put the powder into the syringe, no water, and register a minimal amount of blood, like 10 units....the coke dissolves, then plunge away, fast, tourniquet undone....because it is so concentrated the rush is even more fucked up! I used to IV crack, but it never was quite as intense as coke, because of the extra liquid and acid....still mighty intense though!

Ugh I feel kinda sick now...:/

Hehe. Yeah. I've heard of the "dry hit" - even seen it done once or twice, I think - but could never do it myself cos my veins were always screwed. Even before I started injecting my veins were puny and/or deep. Personally I never found that the amount of water involved made enough of a difference to the rush for me to be bothered beyond novelty value. However, given how bad my veins are it was always more a case of just being very grateful to have registered at all really. Especially given how vasoconstricting coke is.

Such a fukked up idea trying to inject more and more and more and more of a substance that with each shot turns blood more and more and more and more like jelly whilst simultaneously making veins less and less and less and less feasible to hit. Or even to perform normal functions. Heart attack here I come :D

Was nearly always crack for me simply because I was around crack a lot more than powder. Only ever bought powder specifically to wash up really. Usually 1/8 or 1/4 between a couple, three, four of us over an evening but would often whack in a shot or two of powder whilst buggering about with highly flammable chemicals and naked flames and stuffs. Oh the fun we had.

I don't feel sick now so much as a bit sad. Can see myself now near-sobbing with frustration frantically trying to get in another hit with holes and dried blood from head to foot, hands and arms so fukked I could barely even grip the (totally blunt) syringe anymore let alone make use of it. Coke may have that "glamourous" image but coke addiction is as sordid as they come

I just started to iv mine less than a week ago. I used to just rock it up and smoke, that wasn't bad i was just disappointed when it was gone, and it went fast, and, of course, lonely. But i figured i'd iv some, i was a heroin addict for a number of years so i was familiar with needle use, safety, and cleanliness. All that being said, it was a TERRIBLE decision. i've done a fair amount of drugs, and almost always iv'd them, (economics, right? haha) but never have i so quickly been turned into an animal. The numb tongue, the rush, the rush the rush, there are no words to describe it. this is exactly why it's so dangerous, i had no idea how much to iv, so i just put about enough to cover half a bottle cap, rinse, filter, push, i have no idea whether i did a little much or what, but i vomited, then poured sweat at work (where i'm refrigerated). And so, of course, it's become an extremely dangerous gamble to reach just shy of that hit, day after day, shot after shot. I'm writing this about five days later, with a bounced rent check, an empty bank account, indebted to my friend over $300. i'm not saying don't, i'm not saying do, i'm just saying, for me, this is one of the most dangerous things i've experienced. i dont like this game, and i like the fiend oh so much less.
