throwing used fits thru the playground
After months of wanting to try heroin, but having no connection, yesterday I found myself in a suburb well known for its street level dealing. I decided 'what the hell' and after a series of very strange events managed to get on a 1/4 gram of smack. I went home very excited yet managed to wait until today to try it.

Opiates are the only drug that I am not experienced with, bar a few codeine experiments, and with all the horror stories that I had heard about the nausea and throwing up that often accompanies first time opiate use, and the fact that Im tiny, I thought that I was definately going to cop the full brunt of these side effects. I figured that smoking was going to give me the most control over curbing these side effects so I went with that method, a mistake that I will never make again.

10:50 am I make my little paper tube and fold the edges of my aluminium foil so that its contents cannot fall out the edges. I place a large sized key bump in the center and smoke it up. Upon breathing out the smoke I realise that I feel nothing so I again put a large bump in the center and smoke it. The same results. I know that this is real dope as I saw people shooting the exact same gear when I bought it so i conclude that I am simply not doing enough. I stop being a little bitch about it and put about 1/4 of what I had on the foil and smoke it. Finally I was starting to get some noticable effects. My eyes felt heavy and I felt warm but there was none of the euphoria I was expecting.

11:00 I go outside for a ciggerette and while the first few drags were nice by the middle of it it was just making me feel seedy, so I stubbed it out and went back inside.

11:10 As I am not happy with the effects I decide to smoke about a third of what I have left. After doing this I am finally pleased with its effects. I feel warm, kinda tired but completely comfortable and at ease. I go and lay down on the floor with my pillow in front of the TV, watching really old re-runs of 90210. Though I am watching TV I am only watching it - not paying attention to it - its storyline and dialogue is inconsequencial and I cannot be bothered to care. This pattern continued for every TV show that I watched.

At sometime during this I realised how goddamn itchy my face and ankles were, yet while I would have preferred that they were not itchy it ultimately didn't bother me

2:00 pm I had just continued sitting in front of the TV, occasionly nodding off, when I became really tired so I decided to go to bed and have a little nap. I quickly fell asleep for nearly two hours when I was awoken by other people coming home

3:45 Most of everything has worn off. My eyes still feel a bit droopy, I could easily go back to bed and I still have a bit of that warm comfortable feeling but other than that I feel fine to go grocery shopping- which is what I have to do in about an hour.

Ultimately it was a nice, enjoyable experience. It was no way near as full on as I had expected and that may have had a lot to do with me not doing enough as I am sure I lost a lot of the smoke. I made sure to save half so that tommorow I can either snort it and see how that goes or buy a glass pipe so that I can smoke it without fear of losing it. While it was not as intense as expected it was pleasent and certainly something that I can see myself doing again. Even from this one experience I can see how people get addicted to this stuff.
 
I probably shouldn't say this, but--if you thought THAT felt good, you're gonna like what you're going to experience the next handful of times you try it. After that, well it'll only go downhill from there :) Have fun
 
Try snorting, I find that the second best next to IV. Smoking is a waste in my eyes.
 
smoking

You actually dont really waste anything if you know how to smoke it properly. It's just a waste of TIME. Cause with snorting and shooting you can get it all in there at once, whereas with smoking it could take an hour to get the same amount in. On the plus side, smoking is the safest route to go, and if you use tar you usually dont have to worry about dangerous adultants in in, only coffee.
 
I've smoked it, shot it and snorted it and I can still definitely say that if you haven't got a real habit then smoking is a good way to go. For just over a year all I did was smoke it and I could get a really good nod pretty quickly - nothing like an hour, more like 20-30mins. I don't know what the gear you've got is like but the way you smoke it is important too.

If you take the foil plate and make a 'valley' about 1 cm from one of the longest sides so that you've got a channel to run it down you'll catch a lot more of the smoke than just running it all over a flat surface. Not a deep one though, just 0.5cm deep. Also, if you use foil to make the pipe and roll it in a cone shape, you'll get a lot of tar sticking to the inside which you can smoke up at the end when you've run out.

Use a really low flame so that it burns slowly instead of going up quickly and running really fast and also hold the smoke in really deep in your lungs. If you're with a girlfriend/boyfriend/someone close, you can also give them a blowback and keep the smoke going backwards and forwards between you. I'll never forget the feeling of taking a huge hit of crack and blowing it into my lover's mouth, looking right into her eyes while kissing - JEEEEEEEESUUUUSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
 
Nice report. Be careful next time you try it too. :)

My mouth always seems to water when I read trip reports about opiates.
 
smoking

I mean't it takes that long to get the same amount in you vs. slamming it all in there at once. Smoking actually gets into your bloodstream faster than injecting. Somking is the fastest way to deliver a drug into the body. You just dont have big enough lungs to smoke a gram in once hit.
 
DexterMeth, do you mean the fastest way to get the drug into your brain, not your bloodstream? It's just that surely something being released into youur bloodstream via a needle will be quicker to get in than something going through your lungs. However, as the lungs are further along the circulatory system than the vein in your arm, I can see how smoking something could get to the brain faster.

This right or did you mean something else?
 
Nice report. However, if I had smoked 2 bumps with little to no effects, I would have simply cut my losses and snorted the rest at that point.
 
People in this thread seem confused - injecting is better than smoking is better than snorting.
 
its all relative

Injecting is only the best if you are looking to get all the drug in you at once and have it hit you reletively fast.

Smoking IS THE FASTEST way to get the drug to your brain. Although it's quite hard to smoke a gram at once whereas you can slam a gram with no problem.

DONT DO A GRAM AT ONCE. I know some people that shoot an upwards of 4 grams a day throughout the day, but if Joe Schmoe with no tolerance comes along and shoots a gram, he will most likely die.
 
From what I hear, injecting is the best if you want to get addicted, too?
 
1 : Don't smoke from foil. Really, just go buy a glass pipe.
2: Don't watch 90210 ;)
 
Actually the whole foil thing is only founded in myth. Though it may only be Reynolds that is ok to smoke on, the company has been asked this question for decades, and though they do not promote the use of their product for illegal situations, they insist you cannot get alzheimers or whatever else by using their foil. Just thought i would bring that up. You can find papers on it all over the net.


And smoking might actually be more addictive for most people than injecting, because its so easy to administer in this way, and seems harmless. Although true it is the safest way to administer hop, addictive wise, it might actually be the most dangerous. Since the fear of the needle is removed and you can smoke all day, a HUGE tolerance can quickly build up without one knowing.
