Shooting with puddle/toilet/etc. water?

Personally, I don't know how people can let their habit get that out of hand that they have to resort to some of the shit posted above. For me, it reached a certain point & I knew I had to do something about it (so I did - tapered and got myself clean) - you reach a point where you step back, look at what you're doing and say "no more"

Amen brother. Thanks.
 
for me it wasn't shooting toilet water that woke me up ..THAT was one of 1000's of things to shake me
, and Buddhist Temples of Southeast Asia range allllllllllllllllllllllllllll the way down to outhouse holes in the ground with a big clay jar next to it and a plastic bowl flaoting in it for you to dip and then slosh your backside clean. but I "had enough"
when I was seconds from DYING with the film FRANKENSTEIN of all things, on the TV in my hotel room , and then again a few weeks later when i realized I was a skeleton and needed to stop the rockstar sized habit ( YOU know ?? shooting two little "milkshakes" every 5 hours round the clock and having nightmares while you are sitting up AWAKE ! stuff like that . But hey IF its the shooting of dirty water that helps people to hit rock bottom and become either NONUSERS or NON HABITUAL USERS, so be it .
I have piles of horror stories from when I was hardcore,
Shooting Orange Juice Would Have Been Fine By Me ! One thing nice about BL is that so many people here really are using the COMMUNITY aspect of BL to avoid sinking to depths ; many people are doing risky things , but in the healthiest way possible thanks to accessibilty of info .
 
I'm going through killer WD now and I would totally shoot up toilet water, puddle water, whatever- for a hit. I hate desperate situations, especially ones where you can't find a filter...that usually makes me sick.

This leads me to a question: Sometimes after shooting up, my boyfriend and I break out with these red bumps on our arms. I figured, "hey, I'm shooting dirty heroin into my veins, whatdya expect?" But he came up with the theory that it is an elergic reaction to cat saliva. He watched our cat drink out of the shot glass we use to shoot. Any thoughts??? Do you think that would cause some one to break out? Thought it would be an interesting question.

Very likely.
I got cotton fever after shooting water from a cup that had been sitting around all day. I usually use tap water. Only sterilized it the 1st couple of times I IVd. Once I was so desparate, I made a rig out of a mechanical pencil. Luckily I came to my senses just in time and didn't use it. Where I was living, it was hard to get sterile points. Pharmacies refused to sell them.

Oh yeah? Ever heard of a "double decker" ?


Its an 'upper deck'. I've been around when someone has slammed one into the upper deck.
 
i just can't believe some of the comments on this thread... some people cannot even register in their heads some of the things that people will do when heroin has taken the wheel... i'm talking full blown heroin addiction and the miserable, desperate life that goes along with it.. when getting a fix is the ONLY fucking thing on your mind regardless of fucking anything!.. thats addiction.. puddle water.. whatever.. thank god i'm not a freakin' statistic..

I agree with this.

And I enjoy the honesty of this thread.

A gut feeling has prevented me from ever injecting heroin two days in a row. Then those two days turn into a week, and then that week turns into several months. I am, blessedly, too chickenshit to really get that particular ball rolling, though I've surely done more dangerous things with pharmaceuticals than many heroin users ever do with their heroin.

The moments that have made me step back from opiate use would be laughably small moments for many BLers to hear, moments of shout-out concern for many other BLers, fairly shocking things for most of my friends to hear, and unspeakable horrors for people like my parents to hear. I don't have stories even close to 'shooting puddle water', but that doesn't mean I haven't been recklessly near to death because of drugs - it's just never been during the precise moment of ingestion.

The actions described here, I think, are often things you catch yourself doing, find yourself doing, or even have to be reminded that you did. I want to say thanks to everyone who's shared honestly, not only because, for me, it serves the purpose that stillbeing mentions above, but also because it touches some other part of myself that I recognize. I know that sounds pretty insipid, and I'm sorry that I can't think of a better way to phrase it.

No disrespect meant to anyone (ever), but saying that if you would shoot a hit of dope with puddle water, you may as well just use the puddle water - for me, personally, that misses the point. What if you come back into recognizing yourself after you already shot the puddle water and you don't know who you were for twenty minutes there? And well, it's really not true that you may as well just use the puddle water: if you're going to shoot yourself with contaminated water, you may as well put some dope in it.

Moreover, what if you willingly trade your life for a hit, take the hit, and find yourself deposited back in a living body once again? It's obviously happened to some of the posters in this thread.

I like the sharing of stories and hope it continues. The temptation to post fictions is obvious, so the usual grain of salt is inevitably taken, but I particularly like this thread; it's at the heart of places like Bluelight in certain ways. In this age, many of us use experiences relayed via the Internet to 'draw the line'.

An old friend of mine, i watched inject ecstacy using, yes ugh... toilet water, at a rave a year ago... :p i nearly threw up...

She is the reason i am totally scarred for life and will never inject anything. :(
 
Besides amoeba and other goodies, this is a very cute creature that I think can be sucked into the needle if you're using pond water (or maybe even toilet water if its from an unclean source).

If you don't care about your health, at least be considerate of these little guys. I don't think they'd appreciate the constant roller coaster of your bloodstream ;)

On a more serious note: Blah - thanks for your post. Always appreciate your realism.
 
Jamshyd great point
but are they killed , you think,
in a thin metal spoon and
and a lighter under it to boil the water first >>>>> ?
 
Cold shots? Does everyone boil the water? I never boil my stuff. Granted, the heroin I use doesn't require heating, just mixing, but still. Are you supposed to heat it? I never heard of that...

I've come across a few kinds of dope that needed heating, is that what you guys are referring to?

Wouldn't injecting orange juice make your immune system react instantly?

The immune system, when "turned on", in large enough cases, will make you feel like shit - such as in cotton fever. If you were to inject orange juice, your immune system would go into overdrive - and you'd feel like shit - no?
 
i boiled the water.in a spoon with a lighter, let it cool a bit . dumped the junk in and let it melt . see I had to beause I was using all kinds of questionable water for years and that was the least I could do right ?

I've seen what some people will resort to (like a 20ml barrel, just drop 8 physeptone - 5mg methadone - in, suck up hot water, shake then inject. All that particulate shit going into your circulatory system) and if you've reached the point where you're using puddle water for a hit, you're at the point where you don't really care about your life anymore (getting to that point with a huge habit is another indicator). All I'm saying is, if you've reached the stage where your total existance is purely to feed your habit, your life isn't a consideration.

Personally, I don't know how people can let their habit get that out of hand that they have to resort to some of the shit posted above.

well, not "no more" ...but something more like "shit, time for some major regulation BITCHES"
 
DexMeth. some toilets are enclosed in some countries, and when you get in there you think theres a sink, you lock tap to fill the ass slosh bucket it doesnt fucking work you take the water you can get , you boil in your spoon your covered in sweat you think youll shit your pants , your eyes are tearing up , your over due for your shot by a few hours , its 90 humid degrees, you take the water and you hope and LOL-- after the shot averything is copa-fuckin-setic and LOl Ive shot up while camping too. goddamn thankfully Im off smack 4 now and you r too i hope
