The new and improved Smackie thread; respectable junkies

My phone mixed all the sentences up strangely but got the main point through. Yeh h doesnt seem to interest me too much anymore. Course I still love it but I think the 'done is helping with cravings. I just love my ice and benzos now(lots of em), bit of methadone if I can get a decent extra amount and pot and a few beers every now n then. Wish I could get into the psych scene but I have no idea how to.

I need to get a hold on my meth use, ive never had a full on ice habit before in my 8 years of using and I was no noob to the crystal at all when things went pear shaped, it just became a lot more easily available. At first half a bag gave me a mega-rush and a spew n everything, now two bags just gives me a little rush its sad. Ive ruined my tolerance to all drugs except psychs which would be the biggest shame of them all as they show me theres a different side to life every time I take em. But yeh I was using the ice to counteract everyting the methadone fucks up i.e libido, sociability, social awkwardness etc... And It ended up getting to the point where I was fucking one or more different people a night, thieving shit(never been a thief ever, benzos do that though) shoveling the benzos in and just being a mess. What started it all was a horrible break up which caused me to lose all my friends, lose a lot of respect from family and of course a shitload of hurt from this asshole that fucked me around. I wont go on about it but some pretty horrible lies and manuipulation went on and then it was all made out to be my fault and everyone believed him(which is a suprise considering how much of a shit talker he his anyway, yes im gay as most fof you know) But yeh it sent me off the edge and I got arrested 4 times and sent to the psych ward for drug psychosis :/ I wasnt really psychotic I was ok, in fact I was about to go to sleep after like 5 nights with 3-5 hours sleep and they said they'd let me go to bed if I seemed ok and they all agreed I was fine but still took me in so you can imagive I was pretty pissed.

Anyway Keep going you guys, if things are becoming too much of a problem I defininitely consider methadone or bupe. Its not a lifelong solution I believe but its good to get your life stable. In my last week of use I thought to myself, if there was no methadone or bupe I honestly dont know what the hell I woud do because I just could not stop no matter how hard I tried. Keep trying guys.

The first time i kicked smack (15 years ago) that was my sentiment. I found it really boring.

That said re your comment about the bupe I've gotten a bit upset about the bupe simply not holding me. About two weeks ago I ended up eating 16mg over 5 hours and it did nothing for me.

that said the other week i booted 2mg and it held/help ten times better then the sublingual 16mg. Go figure. Luckly i get the subutex tablets as opposed to the suboxone.
 
if we are talking burroughs id recommend 'and the hippos were boiled in their tanks' co-written with kerouac
 
Bought me an Oxy for the first time in a good long while now -- fantastic high, absolutely sublime. I'd almost forgotten the bliss. Shame the high is so short lasting.

Towards the very end of the high though, just as the last echo of the buzz was fading, I'd suddenly started sweating buckets, felt dizzy and nauseous, and got hit with awful stomach cramps. It all faded after about 10 minutes of minor torture.

This has happened to me before on opis. Anyone know why, and is it common?

Just curious.

It wasn't that oxycodone mixed with naloxone that gets around these days was it? I doubt it was or you probably would have mentioned it.

It's curious, but maybe it was something unrelated. Possibly even psychosomatic, not that I'm suggesting it wasn't real. On the contrary, studies have proven that thought affects, well, everything. This video will hurt is about a 'nocebo effect' was something interesting I watched recently.
 
Quick question. Wasn't sure whether or not to post here or in the benzo thread.

A friend gave me two endone (10mg oxycodone). I have a little bit of a tolerance to codeine (approx 100mg a day - sometimes more).

1) I took valium at 40mg valium at 4am this morning as I had a big night on the speed and a bit of MDMA being NYE and all. How long should I wait before consuming the oxy? I don't particularly feel like dying, even though it is a small dose.

2) As I do have a small tolerance to opiates and 10mg oxy ain't much, if I had 100mg codeine with it would that boost the effects much. I would probably see how the 10mg is treating me and then dose the codeine if necessary.
 
I wouldn't think there's a great chance of dying from that combo, but seems quite likely that the valium would kill the high (either directly or by making you nod out). Should be fine tomorrow morning though.

Likewise,10mg oxy and 100mg codeine shouldn't cause any problems.

I used to get this quite a bit if I took too much, I think it's just a 'what the fuck are all these drugs doing here' kinda reaction from the body. Lie down, maybe take a low dose antihistamine, and it should be gone in 30 minutes or so.

He lived to 82 and was an addict for most of his life, so yeah.
A true counter-culture original....if not the Grand Old Man of the underground. Godfather to the Beats etc etc.

"Literary Outlaw" by Ted Morgan is a fucking amazing biography of his life, for anyone than can track it down.

Very "respectable" too...

I don't know,there is just something about shooting your wife in the head tends to make me lean away from respectable...far away.
A very interesting life regardless.
 
Does anyone here have any opinions on Candy by Luke Davis? I thought the threads of love and loss were pretty strong.
 
its so fucking painful to watch that film.

that said and not to moralise on anyone elses choice but i'd never let the missus fuck to pay for my habit. even discussing that sort of shit would be instant ground for quitting forever.
 
Yea absolutely loved candy, one of the most realistic depictions of heroin use/abuse, anyone think it was 'method' acting ? obv he was a prescription drug user because of his untimely death but does anyone know if he was a user of H ?
 
I was talking about the book. I enjoyed the movie too because I am a Heath fan and given his circumstances it gives his portrayal a bit of extra credibility.

If you enjoyed the movie I would recommend the book. It is extremely dark especially towards the end but Davis is an absolute poet.

"Respectable" is relative.
Lives can be redeemed, mistakes can be forgiven. Or you can just live in a world of black and white.

Ol' Bill Lee is alright with me. We all do fucked up things, do we not?
I mean, nobody is innocent.
 
I love Candy, both the book and the movie. Really captures the feel of opiates in a way that junkie lit very rarely does. If you enjoyed the movie definitely check out the book, it's even more intense, and has a lot that was left out of the movie.

But yeah, the way Dan behaves is pretty despicable - although what the movie leaves out is that he actually learns the recipe for homebake from Casper and he cooks/sells heroin to supply both of them for quite a large portion of their habit, so it isn't entirely one sided like the movie portrays.
 
I've heard that a lot of that book isn't fiction...I can't verify or contradict this, but I was told by a writer friend that Candy is largely autobiographical.

Interesting point for the day - originally the word "bludger" meant (literally) a guy who lived off the earnings of a prostitute.
I believe "hoon" is another such word -
In the turn of the 20th century in Australia, the term "hoon" (and its rhyming slang version "silver spoon" and also "banana")[4] had a different meaning: one who lived off immoral earnings (i.e. the proceeds of prostitution, a pimp or procurer of prostitutes).[5]

Linguist Sid Baker in his book The Australian Language suggested that "hoon" (meaning "a fool") was a contraction of Houyhnhnm, a fictional race of intelligent horses which appears in Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift.[4][6]
