Greetings from Greece.Im Andreas.im 34 years old and a smack user(on and off rather than all the time)since mid 90's.Right now im clean.and sober.i say sober cause most of the time,whenever i stop using H i drink like a motherf...r.I ve been through some very nasty withdrawal symptoms so i now use only for small periods of time and only if i have subutex aside.in Greece there are only 3 ways to get subutex.
1 get into a program.i cant cause there is not one anywhere near my town
2 find someone who attends a program and buy from his take-home stash.thats also ultra difficult mainly cause most of the junkies who use subutex treasure it and wont sell it to you unless they are completely broke.
3 get some licked pill right out from a junkies mouth.i dont do that.germs..plus its gross,isnt it?

i never smoke heroin but i snort it and shoot it.i find mainline is the best for me.the worst withdrawal i ever had was from smoking that smack and i never felt that shooting brings worse withdrawal symptoms than snorting.

heroin for me is like ying yang.i never use to get completely fuvked up.i shoot only the amount that will make me feel good and i get very energetic and i also enjoy working while high.i never understood junkies who use 3-4 benzos AND heroin only to end up falling down on the street etc.

i spend almost 3 years in downtown Athens(omonia square) selling dope and using,but i realised that i would end up in jail or homeless so i returned to my lil town by the sea where heroin was absent as i was growing up.unfortunately for me i found my town swarming with heroin so im constantly on and off.

im certain i will never completely stop using H.instead of trying to bury her i find it its best for me to learn how to live with her.so i stay clean 3 months then i use for 2 weeks.then i quit.when i quit the worst for me is the "emptiness".it leaves me standing totally pathetic and psychologically i feel very depressed.i ve been through some hardcore body withdrawals and i dont care about them any more.i know the price my body has to pay so im used to it.i can take 5 days of pain.but for me the worst is "psychological" withdrawal symptom.i stand broken for weeks.time freezes.absolutely nothing excites me.still even if i know exactly the price,im honest when i say i will probably never quit.its my siren.
im here cause i admire the way many members here think.hopefully i will make some distant buddies and exchanhe experiences and advice.

p.s.
if anyone ever goes through or to Athens,DO NOT buy from africans on the street.they cut their already shitty stuff with poisons and people drop like flies.and trust me when i say to you,u cannot take a refund from somali's and nigerian's with machettes.
 
Hi adrikos1977,

A very nice welcome post I must say. Got a real feel for who you are. May I ask what you are hoping to get out of being a member at Bluelight? Might be able to give you a few tips on where to start off if you haven't been on the site that much before registering.

Welcome!
 
thanks for the welcome.
well i ve been educating myself through this forum for some years now.subutex was fresh in greece and i remember finding all the answers i needed here.so i browsed some more threads and i gotta say i was impressed by the amount of info i saw.i used,use and probably will use drugs forever,but i always did them with caution and this site has so many good advice.i gotta say..i thought i knew absolutely everything there is to know about heroin.truth is i found here information about things i didnt know.so i decided to finally become a member and communicate with people like me.my biggest problem is that i live in a small town where most of the heroin users are typical street junkies who never quit,homeless,broke etc,and me having a lighter habit,a job and a nice family makes it difficult to hang out with them.my bussines could lose income from my small towns residents talking about me and my affiliations.
so i hope i ll exchange some words with people like me and maybe provide some answers to inexperienced users of smack.i intend to do that with caution ofcourse.thank you again for the welcome.
 
No problem :D

You are right about a lot of people using Bluelight to talk about drugs because they don't share that part of their life with their in real life friends and family. Of course the amount and quality of information is staggering as well.

It seems like you have a good handle on and have come to acceptance with using opiates for the rest of your life, but there are also a lot of good support forums here if you are ever interested in trying to quit for good or find yourself in too deep at some point or another. There are also things you can try and take/do to help with the paws and 'emptiness' (which is a great way to put it) you suffer from when you aren't using.

Anyways I suppose I'll see you round. I already bumped into one of your heroin posts over in other drugs. Not all heroin is made equal :)

Cheers!
 
Welcome to Bluelight! Thanks for the warning, I am not planning on using heroin again, but I am interested in Greece and what drugs people use there. Geographically, it is in the middle of the heroin trade, so it would make sense it is gaining a prevalence there.

Do pharmacists let you buy needles without a prescription in Greece? Do you have needle exchanges there?

thanks for the welcome.

Pharmacists will provide you with needles here no questions asked and without a prescription.needle exchange on the other hand is almost non-existent.from time to time and only in Athens a small van with volunteers will give away free clean needles,an aluminum small cup and citric acid.still there is no way of knowing where and when they will show up.
also addicts who are registered in a certain program can exchange their spikes inside the program.
