Heres the thing. I have a opportunity to move to a country temp. for work
The place i'm going will have H, hash, opium and benzos at such cheap prices
that i can have as much as i can handle. even if i was to snort a 7g of H a day. without much financial damage.

The addict in me tells me to do it but reality is holding me back.

Right now I'm only chipping so i don't have a habit.

Is it possible to be functional for when i need to work which
is only overlooking over things so not to hard. I would only be
working 3 days a week. I will also have co-workers/friend
with me that also sometimes indulge.(more like weed or maybe opium)

I was thinking maybe i can do opiates then take a bunch of adderal
so i can be high and functional around others. Its okay if they i'm smoking
hash but not a junkie.

I was hoping by taking out the junkie aspect such as being dopesick
and always finding ways to cop, I can be functional.

Is this possible or is the addict in me being delusional?????????????
 
Only you can know how functional you're capable of being while high on opiates. Personally, as long as I'm not nodding out I can typically do any kind of activity but not everyone is the same. If you have adderall and you're using H then you'll be doing a speed ball (of sorts), and I would imagine you would probably be able to function. Really though, you should be careful and try out how well you'll function at work on smaller doses of your drugs and see how it goes.

Be safe.


EDIT: You should also keep in mind that if your job is only temporary and you'll be moving away from that place that you might have a huge tolerance when you leave and will have to deal with withdrawals and what not...
 
Yeah in regards to harm reduction I believe you know what the safest/smartest answer is. But that aside, if you do decide to develop a '7 g dope habit' over yonder, just keep in mind how it's gonna feel once you have to come back to the good ole' USA and cannot afford 7 grams of heroin a day again. Detox is not your friend.
 
i think you should only do drugs on the days you dont have work. if youre getting so immune to it that you feel a tolerance is developing, then dont do so much so it will not get that bad. theres no need for you to be blasted while youre at work, that is indeed junkie status. i mean i would maybe do it once in a while, but not every day i go to work.
 
If you indulge in all those drugs & soon enough, you will probably be snorting several grams of heroin as you stated, you wont be chipping anymore & most likely get into the needle aspect of heroin when you return from your journey because its alot cheaper to shoot up than snort. Its fine & dandy to induge & have fun but dont over do it because you will have unlimited access to those drugs at a very cheap price.

Imo, no matter how much free or cheap drugs you can acquire, its not worth messing with your tolerance & well being.
 
Its easy to function on heroin for me, I function better than normal. But building up a huge tolerance is never a good thing even if you have unlimited supply. Not only will you probably stop getting high, when you come back it will suck to get off.
 
I remember reading (I believe it was on one of the erowid.org pages) that heroin addicts were given unlimited access to 100% pure diamorphine and their dosages went up with their tolerance until around 1000mg per person per day.

Of course, this is with 100% pure medical-grade diamorphine. 7 grams a day of street dope sounds possible if it was cut enough.
 
I would highly advise against this, but hey it would be awesome in theory... but still no.
I mean you could do it, if u lived the rest of ur life there.

But after a while that stuff will not even be what it is now, relaxing aweseome, etc. it will become like blood to you. and if u dont have enough u will 'die" not litteraly but u will wish u did. And it wont be reliving as it used to... and then if u have such a huge habit and go to another country that it isnt dirt cheap you will be fucked by how bad ur withdrawal will be, and/or u will not even come close to matchign ur habit without completely bakrupting urself and becoming homeless
 
Ya i feel the responsible thing is to pass up on the job offer.

I probably would have too big of a habit when i come back home.

They do have permanent positions i could take if i wanted to stay
for a few years. But I feel like I'm giving up my life to become
a drug addict possibly for life.

The worst part of this is that I'm actually considering just giving
up everything i have here just so I can live in a fantasy world.

For some reason it sounds good to me but it means I would never
go farther in life. I would work a little and rest of the time just
smoke hash and do opiates all day long. How long can i continue that?

I feel I would fall into a deep depression after a few months.

Would any of you take this offer if you already have a somewhat decent
life already?

Well I have till friday to make my decision so Im going to ponder over
this thru the week.
 
^ I feel that the "responsible'' thing to do, would be to do your job, and do your best to avoid giving up your career/job for some fantasy heroin land. Believe me I am sure it is tough, and if I were in your position I would probably choose fantasy land as well.

Are you somewhat happy with your life right now? If so I don't know why you would even consider this. I have never tested what an unlimited supply of opiates would do, but I strongly think that after a number of months/years you would stop being able to get high no matter how much you took. Your body builds a tolerance to the euphoria and you only experience sedation and constipation. Then you are worse off than someone with limited access to opiates who can still get high. It's better to stay unaddicted and get really high some of the time. Trying to stay high all the time will lead you to being high none of the time. I have seen posts by long term opiate users complaining they can no longer get high no matter how much they take.

Out of curiousity, what country is the job in?
 
If I were about 70+ and i have a good life before that and I would have the job until i died, hell yeh but otherwise no...
 
To counter what the other said, I can't get through the work day without opiates. They make the day go by fast, but then again I don't put myself at the state of the nod, just enough to be feeling good. On the weekends I tend to lower my opiate use dramatically to prepare for the next week (but not so much that I'm truly uncomfortable).

Next, if there was a permanent position, I would do it in a heartbeat. A) Your career, having international work would be huge on your resume. B) Pace yourself, have fun, but don't ruin yourself. C) It would be hugely fun living in another country for a long period of time. Adapt and love the culture.
 
^what cay said, with emphasis on the pace yourself. forced breaks are a must to make sure you keep your tolerance down and your drug use happy and recreational. i for instance have been taking opiates with breaks since i was very young, actually 7th grade when a friend mentioned vicodins, and i thought hmm, my father has a bunch of those. I have only had a taste of w/d once, and that was after a 3 week long opana binge and was very weak. if i can do it with a continually growing, near unlimited, cheap supply you can do it.

edit: i realized i didn't really answer your main question. yes. it is possible that you can have unlimited opiates and still function. people do it all the time. the problem is (like everyone has stated in this thread) the withdrawals after you move back from your temp job or when your supply runs out.

After thinking about it today at work. I decided against it.

When I heard about the offer I thought more about it like a
long vacation. I'm sure I wouldn't have used it everyday but
I just needed to be able to function around my co-workers
who i would probably see everyday.

To be honest the only reason I even maybe considered it
was because I didn't get any pills this week and was craving
my weekly buzz. Also my last few days were not so good
with my boss and I was liking the idea of getting away from him.

I might consider going there just for a vacation in the future
when I get some time off work.

Thanks to everyone for the good advice of staying away from
temptation.
