Misc recently come into some ether

^Buy your vodka from a trusted source. Take it orally. Titrate gradually up to the desired dose. Might all seem obvious, but it's all HR. Surely by your logic there's only one way to take an Ecstasy tablet, and thus HR is impossible?

I had a look through the Erowid vault, it only had a couple of sources relating to health effects and neither had specific data about toxicity of oral vs. inhaled ether.

Dig around in there.
I can guarantee you ingestion is safer than blocking blood to the brain.

Also, no one said anything about combining drugs.

I implore you to find me a "harm reduction" for taking a shot of vodka. Let's be serious, now.

Using different ROA's isn't harm reduction. Harm reduction is shit like using clean needles, and staying sanitized as possible in every situation. You can't say someone doesn't practice harm reduction because they shoot coke instead of snorting it.

^i'm not sure if you fully understand what harm REDUCTION is
 
Anything that REDUCES HARM is harm reduction, including avoiding unsafe combinations and using safer ROAs.
 
Damn i know a lot of people who would pay hella good money for straight ether.It is used by many in my area,and many other areas as a solvent in meth production.The ether usually obtained now by meth cooks is from starting fluid,which has butane,isobutane,ether,and an "upper cylinder lubricant", I have some starting fluid from the early 90's that contains only ether and nitrous oxide as a proppelant.This being said I think that becasue so many meth makers used starting fluid to obtain ether,chemical companies added the butane,isobutane etc.. and the upper cylinder lubricanr shit,which is a petrochemical of some type that is very difficult to seperate from the ether,thus making "clean" ether like from the old cans of ether starting fluid I found in our old farm house nearby almost impossible to find and makes the ether used in meth production produce a dirtier product.Some of these local meth makers use colemans camp fule instead as the solvent instead of ether ,which makes for a nasty tasting product regardless of how much "washing" with acetone is done by the meth maker.Anyway pure ether like that is of interest to me for a solvent in other drug synthesis,more "pyscedelic" type drugs like MDMA,or a number of others,and extraction and purification of hash also...lucky to find that stuff,although I do have some pure ether collected for when the time is right and everything is available for an intersting experiment..lol.
 
Theres no need to clog our threads with rediculous arguments like this one. Please, guys, call it a truce...and move on.....THAT is in the interest of harm reduction. Wasting time arguing over what EXACTLY harm reducion can be classified as, is NOT harm reduction.

And for the record....discussing the proper teqnuique of how to "ingest" or "inhale" ether IS in the interest of harm reduciton....it educates people on the proper way to abuse a substance they are allready going to abuse whether they know the proper way or not. So please don't waste everyones time and bluelights posting space in order to argue something that doesnt even matter.

please.
 
^agreed, its over.
I would hang on to it for a science experiment later, but I dont have a container strong enough.
you guys were right, within a day, my room reeked of it, so I put it in the freezer for now.
 
I'd try about a teaspoon (5ml) or so orally to begin with if doing it by mouth.

The way I used to inhale it, I dispensed entirely with the rag, its wasteful as hell, instead, pouring a little into a small plastic coke bottle, and then inhaling via one nostril, it evaporates far slower, and titrating the dose is easy.

Too easy though to just sit there goofed out of your chops until the night is done, and theres no more ether to be had.

Oh and watch your storage, look up peroxide formation in ethers. Ethers like to form peroxides and hydroperoxides on contact with air, and long storage, stuff is incredibly sensitive, the peroxide, and will go kablooey and remove your face if you fuck with old ass peroxidised ether, if the container starts looking crusty around the lid, do not even open it, the friction of the top moving against the container will set it off.

Instead stick it carefully, very, very carefully in the middle of an unoccupied field, and leave a long, long LONG trail of fuel up to it, light and stand well the hell back=D
 
i have access to pure ether and i must say it really isnt that bad if you are into dissociatives or inhalants. a bit dirty maybe but that might be also because of the intense smell of that stuff.

my dosage while huffing: 5 ml (measured with a syringe) for a slight experience,(an alcohol like buzz) 10-15 ml for a stronger experience. according to some reports theres another plateau at larger dosages (eg 30 ml).
i never had problems with nausea or other bad side effects, the ether smell in my breath will last up to 24h tho. (kissed a girl once after 24h and she was like 'you smell like terpentine')

it has def dissociative abilities and is a psychoactive. not just some stuff you huff and get sedated. it reminds me to n2o in many ways (thought patterns, comeup)


harm reduction:
_always_ close the bottle before you start huffing.
the stuff is very flammable and boils at about 35°C. (so i highly doubt thompson had it packed while tripping through the desert :P) keep it cool under any circumstances.
open every window you can find. dont smoke (god, DONT!). the fumes are heavier than air, so they will be on the ground.
it also forms peroxides, which are explosives, so keep it away from light, sealed tight. i wouldnt store ether longer than necessary.
DONT put it in your fridge. ether always sweats through the bottle. you could end up with a dangerous ether air mixture which gets ignited by the lightbulb or other electronics. (flightclub comes into mind)

this list is by no means complete. do some research if youre going to mess with ether.
