What does heroin feel like?

Well said.

Thanks. :)

What confuses me is that, with the knowledge of how possible it is to become dependent and addicted...with the knowledge that so many have gone from weekends, to every other day, to every day and ended up in the position you so speak of...they continue to do it. They have so many chances to stop, so many times before dependence even sets in to any serious degree and yet they keep going.

So then it MUST be THAT GOOD, right? If it's worth going against all logic and reason?

Never underestimate peoples ability to lie to themselves/put blinders on. Look at how many potentially deadly situations people put themselves in under the guise of "I'm too smart to let them happen/Not gonna happen to me."
Dope, yeah. Texting while driving, taking huge bites of food, ignoring pains that should be checked out, getting on the train/subway at 3am. etc, etc.
I think the mistake you're making is thinking that rationality enters into it.

I was addicted to coke and then meth before I really started fucking with tar and then powder. I knew what the addiction stakes were. I still did it. Let it suck me in.
I've known roughly 10 people that have died from overdoses. Some of them lifelong friends. I've looked in families eyes and told them, 'Not me. I won't do this to everyone again.'
Will any of that stop me from shooting up the next time someone offers me dope? As disgusted as I am to say it, no. It won't. Cause it's not gonna happen to me....... Bullshit.
 
I think it's important to note that some people use heroin not just to get wasted as often as they can. Many people use it as a tool to escape their inner demons, not to mention physical pain. It's the perfect pain killer - not just physically, but mentally as well. Many pro-marijuana people say things such as "it's a natural plant, man. It's natures way of like, you know... pass the bong man... what was I saying? Oh yeah, it's like, all natural and shit man."

If you were once not a completely functioning human being, due to certain personal issues and then you found the perfect drug that made you feel normal, anxiety, depression, pain and emotional hell all gone. A drug that allowed you to live, love, work and simply be a normal human being like everyone else takes for granted, then it is really hard to stop.
 
^That's a good point. It really is a miracle cure for the difficult shit that comes with being human. Numb is exactly what I've wanted at times. Lots of times. And it's not just during the "honeymoon phase."
I'm making myself depressed.
 
it feels like i want to do it again but there's none around and i don't really care to go looking for it but if there was some right here right now there's no fucking goddamn way IN HELL i'd say "no". k.
 
It feels good, hell, it feels damn good, relaxing and calming. Like all the others said, it simply erases your pains, your anxiety and fears, or in short: everything that bothers you, whatever it is. But in reverse -silently but guaranteed- it kills your emotions, your motivation and sex-drive, or simply said, just every other interest you could possibly have besides being blazed and care-free for the moment.

But this can happen to you with every other opioid too, and also, at least to some degree (sex-drive aside =D) when consuming THC day in/out - just in a not-so-severe kind of way as it does when doing opioids, especially the 'stronger ones', on a (semi-)regular basis! I can assure you that every drug on earth will shatter you, if you're not able to handle it...at least with respect!

If you're honest with yourself, and i mean really honest, i think it's possible to manage a functional life and not drift into addiction, but it's harder than you may think it is. But just if you realize, that there IS potential for disaster, then you're able to act accordingly. There will be days when you think that just a few drops of a certain liquid, a specific pill, or whatever it is, will change the current situation for the better - and this is when you should be aware of the fact, that this could be the beginning. So just don't let it happen! Simply said, hardly done!

It makes me feel alive. I can get anythin an all of it done. Its the best feeling in the world. Damn i really want some rite fuckin now haha.

First time i did the shit i was like damn, why cant i be like this all the time? I function better by x1000 on it. If i felt like that when sober nothin would stop me. Then i got hooked an shit goes downhill. But it still is the best thing haha.
 
It feels paradisiac. But ive yet to meet someone who can use it occasionaly...... sadly as with mosty opiates you end up dependt no matter what. And they all go from snorting to smoking to IV'ing. If you are askiong this because you wanna try it, dont. Yes it feels great but its not worth the damage it can do. Especially if you have an addictive personality.

Really?

Not trying to flaunt here or anything but, I've been using opiates for 5 or 6 years now and I'm not dependent. My tolerance is still just like 20mg hydrocodone = pretty good high.

So are you saying that I'm like one in a thousand? I mean I would have assumed there would be more but I guess not.


But to everyone, yeah, I understand. Especially about the part of finding something that allowed you to be a functional person and wanting to continue using it.

I feel like kratom is a safer alternative for that though...but I guess it doesn't satisfy everyone. The thing is that there's obviously a threshold everyone has for how good they want to feel. You could just take a little bit of a H obviously feel much better, albeit not very "high". So there's something more to it than that.

Actually I think I just tend to overestimate the amount of rational people. I mean, I see so many addicts on here who are clearly very intelligent. Perhaps rationality is obscured by desire for a lot of people. This seems so alien to me but it's probably because of my OCD, where I have to assess every situation all the goddamn time in my head over and over again.
 
^That's pretty interesting. You never felt like your OCD got overruled by the opiate?
I would suppose that's quite the duel.
 
tried it once and it was kinda lame, it was boring, probably won't try it again
 
The first time I tried Heroin it took away all my anxiety and all my problems to a degree that I had never experienced before, and I already had a couple opiate habits under my belt by the time I tried it. As long as I had Heroin there were no problems, the only problem that could touch me was the problem of running out of money and Heroin at the same time. Heroin is Morphine that crosses the BBB faster and reminded me of my first experiences with Morphine.

Heroin felt like the answer, the secret to life. Complete contentment, like jacuzzi jets running through my veins, coupled with the ability to focus on whatever I wanted to for long periods of time. I over romanticized the drug and got too caught up in the life style.

When I was on Heroin the world could have been blowing up around me and I'd just sit back and enjoy the scenery.

Needless to say I'm now on Suboxone, after a couple years of the rollercoaster ride of Heroin I was relieved to find Suboxone and some stability in my life. I do think Heroin is over stigmatized by the general public and a lot of people would be surprised at just how subtle H can really be.

I use H occasionally and it's very sporadic (at least for now).. and it's at my fingertips and I have the money.

I think the trick is I only sniff H. I know IVing would feel too good to not need to feel like that 24/7.

As for sniffing high quality no-burn H #4... honestly, for me, 400mg tramadol + benzos feels better.. better nods too, nods I don't fall asleep on. Even if I do enough H to get almost-nauseous... there are better high's and combos.

I did H roughly 14 days in a row and thats it . Smoked it a few time but i prefer snorting it. I love the burn and that taste in my nose. I would love soem right now. Some people are able to manage to do it rarely. But its rare as fuck. Im happy fore those who can. I know for a fact if i had the money and the connects rite now id be in nodland 24/7,365
 
If you were hooked on another opiate first then you get into snorting smack its really just like doing another opiate. But once youve injected an opiate and then inject h, its like wow. First thing i ever ivd was morphine. 21st bday my old pharm tech dealer was like happy bday and tossed me a brown bottle and it was 100mgs of injectaable morphine. I had never shot anything before but i did a few im shots and was like ehhh this is kinda lame. So i iv'd it and was like wow...lol at the same time i had switched to dope from oxy bc of the price so i had the dope and i had the pins so figured why not....looking back i probably should have just said why? Lol but that first shot, btw the dope i was getting was pure fire, and the rush was amazing, blew morphine out of the water, the taste that flew thru my lungs was like flowers and slight vinegar or something, it was awesome to the point i think i even popped a boner lmao...but it was the perfect combo of opiates for me at the time. It was cheap, i didnt need as much bc i was shooting (that changed eventually) it was super good quality, it had an amazing rush and really long legs. Yea iv dilaudid has a great rush but no legs, iv morphine has an ok rush with long legs, iv oxy is ok, has a decent rush and legs but its expensive as hell and shooting er waxy pills is messy gross and dangerous without a micron. So in that regard, heroin was the perfect opiate for me, killed all the emotional pain i had at the time, made me feel productive. It had it all, and it also took everything from me.
 
I am so glad this was the first post on the page. I have never tried H but have always had a burning desire to... two reasons I haven't: I know I'll be instantly addicted which will lead to my death, and I don't know off-hand where to get it (although I'm sure I could find it if reason #1 wasn't so first and foremost in my mind. See, I'm almost 30 days clean off Benzos... Benzos almost ruined my life (after suboxone helped me with an oxymorphone addiction), and I want to delve FURTHER into the abyss??? I can't imagine the hell H would put me through. Thanks for sharing your experience... so sorry for your pain and loss.
 
Something Med Cabinet kinda touched on and I feel is another part of why heroin becomes so much the go-to IV opiate is its ease of use. Like in your comparison to Oxy. Not that Oxy is ridiculously hard to filter in or anything. It's just that dope is so fucking simple to prep.
Little water, some powder, a stir, cotton, draw up, and you've got yourself a dose of bliss. It's pretty idiot-proof and once you rid yourself of the stigma it becomes second nature.
Maybe I'm just remarkably lazy when it comes to prep. I'll take anything. But given a choice, there is no choice.
 
A lot of people have been saying a lot of abstract, yet accurate descriptions of the heroin experience, which I enjoyed reading, but for the sake of information I'm gonna give a description of the effects, as thoroughly as I can:

Intravenously, heroin hits you instantaneously and produces a powerful rush of euphoria lasting from 10 seconds to 2 minutes depending on the user's tolerance, and then produces a high lasting 1-4 hours (again depending on tolerance). This rush feels like warm electricity flowing through your body, very similar to an orgasm.

When snorted or smoked, the first thing I always feel is a sort of simultaneous stimulation and sedation, followed by a warmth originating in the chest and face. The eyelids start to feel heavy, and thoughts start to slow down or become very basic or minimal. The skin starts to itch and I personally feel like my skin is a little numb. The mental high is a blissfully apathetic state where nothing else in the world really matters, but other than that, the alteration of consciousness isn't particularly intense or even all that noticeable. Nausea is almost inevitable, but lying flat on your back seems to relieve it almost completely. I should also add that on high doses of heroin, moving becomes very difficult, and you may find yourself "glued" to the couch, and I've even been so sedated that I couldn't raise my hand up to my mouth to smoke a cigarette.

Heroin, especially when taken with a significant other, can feel similar to MDMA, acting like an empathogen. The times I have taken heroin with my girlfriend have made us closer. The comedown isn't bad, but many people find that they immediately crave more after coming down from the peak effects. Personally, I get really nauseous and itchy, but no depression, anxiety or anything too bad, but I don't like coming down from opiates (or actually pretty much any other drug that I take) without smoking a large amount of weed.

The nod is an experience that you can get from higher doses of strong opiates, and it's a daydream-like trance in which people can experiences hallucinations of sorts. People who use opiates regularly typically will try to achieve a nod, although not all users enjoy it as much.

Most people can't, or don't have the desire to have sex while on heroin, but I personally had the best sex I have ever had in my life about 2 weeks ago with my girlfriend, and we were both on heroin and both managed to climax. Most people I know who have used heroin say that they aren't really interested in sex, but to me, heroin makes me very aroused and makes me amazing in bed. Even moreso than meth.

That's my in-depth description of heroin
 
Yea as for prepping a shot of smack is a ten sec ordeal, least with powder. Tar takes a little longer to dissolve, least the tar ive had here, which was a few times, pretty rare. It dissolved but it required a lot of time to sit. Im sure out west thats why most ppl heat their tar to make it dissolve quicker. But making a shot is so uick id go into a bathroom stall somewhere and a little water from my bottle, the dope and a little bb sized rolled cotton tight, quick stir with the plunger and draw up, find a vein and bam. Youre done. Oxys are so gross to shoot, just so much powder and a mess of goo. Plus you have to wonder how much is left in the spoon. With good uality powder, theres nothing at all left, even in the cotton. Nothing left, totally clean. Now obviously its not all heroin, there is water soluble bulking agents inn there, but its usually not harmful, vitamins lactose, sugars starches ect.
 
I know obviously that you can't get hooked/dependent on your first shot, or even your second or third or fourth...what I mean is that people obviously know what happens with heroin. Anyone who hasn't been living under a rock can see that most people end up dependent.

What confuses me is that, with the knowledge of how possible it is to become dependent and addicted...with the knowledge that so many have gone from weekends, to every other day, to every day and ended up in the position you so speak of...they continue to do it. They have so many chances to stop, so many times before dependence even sets in to any serious degree and yet they keep going.

So then it MUST be THAT GOOD, right? If it's worth going against all logic and reason?

You never think youll be the one that gets hooked. I mean, when i was morphing from weekend warrior to every other day user, i still thoughtbi had everything under control. Yeah i know i am fully responsible for my actions, but heroin has a way of twisting your reason and logical thinking into a way that makes you think what youre doing is still ok, that no ill never be THAT guy, the junkie on skid. Its not that all logic is thrown out, it just gets warped.
