You fucking know, I post it enough
I have been on the heroin tonight, was smoking it tonight for quite a while, then stayed up for a bit longer.

Tried to go to sleep 45 minutes ago and the residual heroin stimulation made sleep impossible.

Is this a common thing to happen when on heroin, should I have taken the chance to sleep when I was nodding off earlier?

Would it be safe to take some xanax to try and help me sleep or a mirtazepine.

I didn't expect to have trouble sleeping after taking heroin tonight.

Yes this is a common experience. I would always stay up from heroin use.

It would be OK to take a small amount of Xanax to help you go to sleep. Just be careful not to take too much. You also have a benzo tolerance, so this also helps out with the safety factor. :)
