I know of plenty of people who have done it just once.
Me too, the thing is, all the people I know who shot heroin only once in their life OD'd and died from that first shot.

And that, my good friend, is why I am here.Me too, the thing is, all the people I know who shot heroin only once in their life OD'd and died from that first shot.
You and every last fucking heroin (oxy, meth, cocaine) addict alive.
Where are you going to GET this first magical dose of IV heroin? Just curious....
This is sad, because we can all tell you've already made up your mind. You want us to see it from your perspective, but as others have mentioned, your situation has been their perspective you just don't wanna hear it. I hate to get tough with you but what makes you think *starting* with I.V'ing you'd last ten years before something might happen. I had the drug game on lock, didnt need a message board to answer my questions and lasted a year before the first OD and trouble the law. Money dries up, purity changes, just to many variables for something bad to NOT happen.
Please don't![]()
At the risk of being accused of being insensitive, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you are generally full of shit. Your story is inconsistent in it's details and you are absolutely coming across here as a drug seeker. side from the frenetic insistence that you are NOT DRUG SEEKING ( a pretty good tell that you are) nothing adds up. You have this pain since you were 5 but no one believes you? What about from 6-18 years old when you were still living with your parents? Did they try month after month, year after year to find a doctor who would take their chronically-in-pain child, who was surely crying and miserable all of the time, seriously? Or did doctors just shoo them away because they were afraid your parents were drug seeking on your behalf? What about your school? They are bound by law to address the needs of a child who is miserable and crying in pain. Or maybe the doctors thought the school nurse just wanted to snort the 5mg roxicodones from your dentist (who gets roxicodones for wisdom teeth? Oh, wait, let me guess, the pain was "unbearable"?)
No worries, I assume most of my posting is unintelligible. I'm in a lot of pain and my mind is very wishy-washy right now. I am on no antipsychotics at the moment because I have been on every atypical minus Fanapt and Geodon. I can't go on Geodon because I'm required to eat 500 calories twice a day, which I cannot do, and I didn't try Fanapt because the Latuda I was on gave me tardive myoclonus and tardive dystonia. My psychiatrist wanted to take a break. Haldol gives me hangovers, and Clozaril gave me agranulocytosis. I repeatedly say I am not drug seeking because for MY ENTIRE LIFE doctors have accused me of it. It pisses me off and I want to make it VERY clear that I AM NOT FUCKING DRUG SEEKING.
5-18 my dad was against doctors. I didn't have insurance at all. I went to the doctor a couple times, mainly to get two ingrown toenails removed. I was in a lot of pain. A lot of it. But I hid it because my dad got angry. What would you have done? And, just for your information, it has increased in severity as I got older. At around 5-10 it wasn't nearly as bad as it was from 11-15. By that time, however, I was more able to cope with the pain. Plus, I would cry myself to sleep. I slept in my own room and cried quietly. Teachers didn't do anything because I didn't do anything. I failed PE because I couldn't do anything, but I didn't tell anyone, because I was scared of getting into trouble with my dad. I'd be going to the ER right now, but I don't want him mad at me and I'm fucking 23 years old. So I have to wait until tomorrow when I'm home. Originally I got Percs for my teeth because I told him codeine makes me sick and hydrocodone doesn't work. Plus, since you didn't know (because I didn't say anything), the surgery was botched. They didn't numb the left side properly and I felt a lot of pain. Six weeks later and the lower left side of my jaw still hurt badly.
Here is the bottom line: everyone here thinks you are lying because almost everyone here is or has been a drug addict of one sort or another. We can smell lies, bullshit, manipulation and drug related fraud from a mile away. We know all the tricks of the trade and you aren't fooling anyone. NO ONE here wants to see you take up heroin because EVERYONE here knows this is the single biggest mistake you could make in your situation. But none of us can stop you. You will do whatever you want. Just don't expect people to continue to engage this seriously when everything you have said so far has been extremely disingenuous.
That is fine. But what you are doing is making assumptions. I am not a drug addict and I never have been. I am very drug-naive and I am trying to gain knowledge, hence my coming here. I'm manipulating NOBODY. If you know all the tricks of the trade, then you should know that there are some LEGITIMATE PEOPLE who are LEGITIMATELY in pain who don't want to go to bullshit "help" sites. They only have unintelligent fucks who use "u" and "r" and have no idea what the hell they're saying. This is why I came here, plus to talk about heroin. Biggest mistake? I don't see it right now. I understand all of what you are saying, but you aren't me. You don't know how much pain that I have to live with on a day to day basis. It's pretty intense. You'd want to kill yourself if you had to live in my body for even five minutes. Whatever opiate withdrawal you went through was nothing compared to what I feel now. No, not even with benzo withdrawal I went through was this bad.
If you had come on here and said, "hey guys, my life is unmanageable and I feel myself slipping into addiction and am pretty damn sure I'm gonna start shooting junk" folks would have a lot more respect for your situation. We would still try everything to get you to change your mind, but at least we could relate and respect your honesty. Instead, you are trying to pull the same manipulative crap that I suspect has driven away every doctor you are mad at for not giving you what you want. And no one here is that naive.
I came here with an idea in mind, and I put it forth. That is why I didn't open the conversation the way you suggested, otherwise I would have. I do NOT feel like I am slipping into addiction, I feel like I am slipping into illicit drug use. Can I get addicted? Of course I can. I realize that. And it's a risk I'm willing to take IF I HAVE TO.
You say you are schizophrenic and don't take antipsychotics. You have paranoia and hallucinations. You are on SSI and disability. Yet you say you have no insurance? But if this is all true you have Medicare, which is insurance. Meaning any doctor you go to will know you are schizophrenic and on disability. Unlike everyone I know who has legitimate chronic pain, you seem unable here to adequately explain exactly what the issue is. It is coming from "around your elbow" from a childhood break almost 20 years ago, gets "worse by the day" yet is quite nonspecific. If all of this is what you are telling your 50 (!) doctors, no wonder they won't prescribe. You can insist all you want, but your entire story has a great bug sign on it that says "I AM A DRUG SEEKER". Like it or not. That's why you can't get a script.
I have been on nearly every atypical antipsychotic. The only one that has worked was Latuda at 120mg. As soon as I hit that the hallucinations and voices went away. Five days later, I developed dystonia and myoclonus. I cannot take Haldol as it causes me to wake with a hangover, and Clozaril gave me agranulocytosis. The only atypicals I haven't been on are Fanapt and Geodon. I can't take Geodon because I can't eat 500 calories twice a day, and I haven't tried Fanapt because my psychiatrist is scared of the dystonia. I take fish oil and Niacin to help with the schizophrenia. She is very understanding and realizes that I am able to "control" it on my own. We are still looking into other options as soon as my dystonia and myoclonus goes away, they'll just be typicals if Fanapt doesn't work.
When I said I had no insurance, I meant in the past. I didn't have insurance for YEARS. I was only recently approved for SSI. It's Medicaid, not Medicare, by the way. The issue stems from my left arm. I broke it when I was five. I've had a DynaSplint, occupational therapy, and surgeons look it over. I've also had three cortisone injections. The doctor stopped giving them to me after the third because they weren't helping and they're not exactly good for your joints. I have seen "50!" doctors over the years because my mom has taken me to them. The doctors don't want to give kids pain pills. They don't want to give a kid surgery for something they don't think is serious. I was TERRIFIED of my dad. You think I was going to be open about this as a kid? Fuck no! It's the same as a little girl being raped. You simply don't want to talk about it! I'm NOT manipulating shit. I don't even ASK for pain medication. I give them my symptoms and ask what we can do. They never suggest medications. I've asked like ONCE, and that was at the ER.
Now, back to my arm. I was in one of those pedal cars with my arm out the "window" of it. My legs were up out of the "windshield" and two of my older friends were pushing the car really fast by running. They accidentally tipped it, and it fell over on my arm. It broke. Since then, after multiple x-rays, MRIs, and CTs, doctors have no idea what is up. I have zero supination in it. I am having surgery in six months to correct the supination, but I don't know, and the doctors don't know, if that'll help the pain. NOBODY knows where it is coming from. How can I supply you with information that *I* don't even have??
Shoot, short, plug or smoke it, if you are intent on doing heroin then by all means do it. Just don't tell us we didn't warn you and don't blame anyone but yourself when you realize how bad you fucked up. But we will still be here to support you when you come back with a thread about kicking in a couple years, if you make it that long. Because as exasperating as all of this is to read, we really do care what happens to you. Because no one here would wish heroin on their worst enemy, let alone someone who is lost, hurting and just trying to get their world together.
Thank you. Trust me, I wouldn't wish it on anyone either. But I am lost and have nowhere else to go. I do not want to do heroin, but if I have no other options, what do I do, fig? Please answer that? I'd be forever grateful. My life IS falling apart.
I can't work, I can't leave the house often, I can't do fun things, my family (minus my mom) hates me because I am basically a recluse (I simply can't do anything!), and my dad is beyond against anything medicine related.
Think twice. The will be no going back. Good luck.
If even one person can kick it, I can. I hope not to have to start, however. Thank you. And do not worry about sounding "insensitive." It's fine. I understand. I probably do sound a bit off, but you have to remember, I am absolutely dying here. I'd go to the ER right now (nurse's recommendation), but I'm staying with my dad in Nevada right now and I won't be back home until tomorrow morning, so I will go then. Thank you for the luck. It is appreciated.

Thank you for your reply. Some people DO need opiates for the long-term, simple as that. I stated that earlier, and I am a person like that. i can't help it. I will look into a methadone clinic. I do NOT want to get high. I want to feel better. I want to live. If this will do that for me, it is what I want. And again, thanks for your post. It was very helpful, and you didn't sound like a total dickbag like this guy:Methadone sucks, but if I were you I'd try to get some. It has many benefits over heroin (can be obtained legally, comes in standardized doses, less abuse potential, etc). There's a reason people switch from a dope habit to methadone, and that's because it's still possible to live a semi-normal life on it. If you're truly not trying to get high and plan to use opiates for a long time, this is your best option. Look up methadone clinics in your area and figure out how to get into one.
If you decide to do heroin, the safest methods would be orally, snorting, smoking, then IV (in that order).
The reality is that some people need opiates for the long term. It's not ideal but it's the truth. Heroin is a terrible candidate for long-term use...quite possibly the worst.
if 300 a month on weed is alot of money for you, then dont pick up a needle thats gonna cost you 300 a week JUST TO FEEL NORMAL after a few weeks of everyday IV use.
the reason pain patients get prescriptions, is because they know what they are getting in every dose, the dope game is always a crap shoot, even if you just bought from the same guy earlier in the day, could still be a totally different batch.
you sound like an angsty teen rebelling against his parents.
Forgive me, I meant my "knowledge" of illict substances, not drugs in general (clearly, as I've been on MANY APs, ADs, and AEDs). I can't eat 500 twice a day because Latuda gave me what I refer to as "clinical anorexia". It's not anorexia nervosa, so I don't say simply "anorexia" as most people refer that to the -nervosa derivative, which I don't have. I went from 222 down to 142. When I was on Latuda I had to force myself to eat 350 calories in one sitting to take my once-daily dose.If you have never asked about pain medication except of once, why would doctors accuse you of drug seeking?
You say you are drug naive yet you have gone though benzo WD, and now take 40 mg diazepam per day? That is not drug naive.
Why can't you eat 500 cal twice per day? The minimum recommended net calories for someone on a highly restrictive diet is 900. Are you trying to lose weight? If not, 500 is like a big ham sandwich with cheese and some juice. Or one big hot dog.
Why are you visiting your dad if he was so abusive and neglectful by not addressing your damaged arm? Wouldn't you be like as far away from his influence as possible as you try to get your arm taken care of? I'm not being sarcastic, it seems counterproductive.
