Smoking it is less harmful, less life destroying, less psychotic, etc. It is also less fun that way.
I would never suggest someone who doesn't shoot and who hasn't ever shot should shoot. Once you shoot, it's really hard to go back to any other way. Ironically as a shooter I am more partial to eating and snorting than smoking when I'm trying to not shoot. You can eat and snort enough to get twacked with high tolerance rather easy. Once you build tolerance through shooting, good luck getting high at all while smoking. I can't really get high smoking unless I go a period dry. And even then tolerance comes back so fast that smoking quickly does nothing besides get rid of the worst withdrawal symptoms.
Also the bottom line is over the long term ur gonna damage ur circulatory system. I thought I was smart for a while. My arms now have very few spots that will flag. It's absolutely a nightmare going to the hospital. I had surgery a few.months ago and it took like an hour or two between trying and discussing possibilities with the doctor and anesthesiologist before they found a good spot they could get a proper IV for me. In many cases its completely viable to go through the feet, which I refuse to inject into(so there's are least a handful of lines for hospitals to use), but it's not viable for anesthesia during surgery because circulation is too slow and anesthesia cannot be rapidly and reliably initiated and maintained.
You aren't missing out on anything if you smoke and never shoot. If you try shooting you will almost certainly he missing out on something every time you smoke from then on. So I just suggest leaving the sharpshooting to your lady.
Oh and what I mean by psychotic is that rates of psychosis are high among smokers, but almost universal to some extent among shooters from the statistics I've seen and personal experience. I think a Japanese study showed a 90% rate of some identifiable symptoms of psychosis among injectors. Idk if that study has been replicated or applies everywhere but from anecdotal experience with other shooters and myself...that number seems like at least a lower bounds estimate. I don't think I've met a shooter who didn't go at least a little psychotic after a shot. It may not have been full blown, but there is always some rubberneckin and some sort of police surveillance going on when you got high. If rhe cops haven't unleashed the full capabilities of the entire department and there aren't at least a few undercovers driving behind you then it wasn't good dope.
God if it ain't fun though. Almost like an orgasm. And the orgasms are the most intense thing in human experience after a good shot. But theoretically you can get this latter benefit by just smoking a shitload of dope at once.
