SHOULD I inject alone?

Ive read many guides on injecting, but do you think this is sufficient enough to inject?

I will only use a VERY VERY small amount but still....

Or I can have a friend watch, but I dont know any needle users.. Should I try it though?

Is this too unsafe?
 
What are you injecting? I don't suggest to do it alone because you can OD from IV on a lot of substances pretty easier than you think and if you don't have a good friend there with you, you could be in a lot of trouble, mang.
 
Oh heh, I wanted to inject coke..

I WILL do it with a friend I decided. I was stupid for even asking that... lol.

Could I do it right though without an experienced person?
 
of course you shouldn't inject alone. that's definately the best way to OD.
doesn't mean that many of us don't do it anyway.
 
I'd agree, it's best to have someone on hand to ensure your safety - and vice versa, then again, yer shooting coke, and if you "did too much" you'd basically have a heart attack, so you better have a sober friend that knows CPR ...

Personally I would say 95% of thetime I shot up alone, but this is bluelight, so it's really a "do as I say, not a I do" situation - so no, don't boot alone!
 
Yeah I agree with Phreex.....it's something I've done a lot in the past (not with coke though), but it's not something I would ever recommend. The first question that comes to my mind is; why would you want to inject coke alone? I'm guessing you are addicted to cocaine, becuase I don't know any casual users that use coke alone (it's more of a social drug I guess), and if that's the case then, well, drug addicts are known for doing stupid, unsafe things to get high. Lord knows, my reason goes out the window if I'm dopesick. If you do decide to inject alone, just be sure that you start with a very small amount and don't get carried away, or you could end up in a very bad situation.....
Think about it; if you do OD, there is a MUCH higher chance of you dying unless you are able to get to a phone and call 911. This might be difficult if you are having a heart attack 8) Even if you are able to call 911, that means you are going to have EMS and probably the police up at your house, which could very well lead to a bust if you have any drugs around - chances are, if you're OD'ing on IV coke, you're not going to be able to hide your drugs and works, or whatever. If a friend is with you, they can drive you to the hospital, or at least clean up any drugs/paraphenaelia.
There's few things worse than OD'ing on drugs, but one of them is getting busted at the same time 8(

peace
and be safe

I know plenty of people who use cocaine alone. It doesn't mean you're an addict. I've even done it alone when all my friends were busy and I just wanted to chill and listen to some music because you can't beat that music euphoria. Heh.
 
my first time shooting up, somebody else did it for me. anyway, but i quickly learned how. Now I shoot up when I'm alone a lot of the time, but When i was first starting i didn't do it alone becaue I wasn't familiar enough with amounts.
 
I found the guides only help to a certain extent, the only way to get it down is to practice and even then you probally end up missing shot once in a while. First time I IV'd I did it alone and it wasn't all that powerful as everyone said it would be.
 
First time I IV'ed I did it on my own with an assload of unfiltered dpt. Was a horrible idea.
 
Yeah the first time I shot up I was alone and it all turned out fine. If you aren't going to have an experienced person around to help you it might be worth trying a kind of practice run first, just using saline. It might sound cheesy but it lets you go thru the motions of the guides and get some experience with hitting yourself without the stress of losing drugs or doing something like accidently skin popping ya coke.
 
Sowle, that's an excellent idea. Thank you!

hMm... Since I am only going to have one needle..... But my friend's mom is a diabetic so I will get a clean one....

Can I just reuse it after I do the practice shot? Can I reuse it again after I do coke with it?

Cuz I cant really ask for 12 more needles or whatever... lol. No I wont share either.. Nobody I know injects anyways...

Anyway to properly store a needle just for one day-not overnight.. I plan to shoot up for an hr or two....
 
Don't shoot up,especially coke depending on the purity you can die.If you still want to do it go buy a bottle of Nubain,It's somewhat safer.
 
No.. you should NEVER re-use a syringe. Read it... it says 'Use once and destroy'.. with that said, I've used the same needle for over 30 injections. Once you get into that type of mileage, there's a better chance of the needle breaking off inside of you.
 
^^^Ive only had that happen once....

I prefer injecting alone, infact it makes me feel safer because i dont want my gear getting mixed up with someone elses and getting some disease. Im alot more afraid of AIDS or hep C than instant death. But, if i am experimenting with something i am unfamiliar with or an unusually high dose, i will have 911 pre-dialed on my cellphone. And IMMEDIATELY after i take a shot, i unlock my bathroom door, just in case. But yes, of course its safer to shoot with someone around, but preferably with someone who is sober and is not injecting themselves.
 
Changes your outlook on drugs

Blasting coke or heroin? i've done both...started out with heroin and moved on to coke and heroin whenever i had them....cant get high any other way with the two now cuz of it....great at first....but also will turn you into a junkie...try it and see but know your limits....heroin is better if your going to blast it but dont do any more than .02 g ,or .2 g of coke at a time!
