Heroin Where to shoot heroin

I'm not using a tourniquet, just a belt but it didn't really make a big difference. I'm using the 1ml insulin syringes you know the orange ones.By the way, the crook of the elbow got many veins and I don't know what to hit.Because of that I will use the arm vein(between the palm and the elbow)

Well if your veins are already easily visible, then it's most likely the technique that's giving you trouble. Pick the largest vein, clean it with an alcohol swab, insert the needle bevel up at a slight angle like we talked about, then pull back on the plunger slightly to create a vacuum. Now, keep pushing the needle in further, and look for a flow of blood to enter the syringe. That's how you know you are in the vein. Then, slowly push down on the back of the plunger. Sometimes, you'll have to move the needle up a little, or back down a little, etc, kind of "fishing" for the vein. It doesn't always work on the first stick.

So.. good luck. Ha. I'd tell you to reconsider but I know you pretty well at this point and I know that's not gonna happen.

Just be safe, man. Do test doses to gauge purity and then start with 1/4 of what you would normally snort in a bump.

Ok man thanks a lot for the help.Maybe all the stuff I'm writing is pointless cause it just needs practice like everything.
 
^^

Yeah practice is always going to help. Do it with water so you can learn.

Some people just pick it up a lot faster than others, and there are some who just can never figure it out on their own. It all depends. I was one of the people who picked it up immediately, unfortunately... :\

25G rigs? Jesus. That's like a hole punch..

Why in the world would you ever use a 25? That is huge...

Intravenous catheters you get in the hospital are usually 18, 20, or 22g, and if you're donating blood they use 16g needles. Ya, the 25g is huge, but I was using them to inject methamphetamine, so I was only dosing once a day when I was using it. I just preferred the 25 or 28g, they were easier for me to hit with for some reason. I could use a 31g short, but I preferred the bigger ones.
 
See why I am taking heroin
I'm so useless I can't even inject heroin

You're not useless.
You don't need to take heroin ever again.
I've been off it for 6 months and I am the happiest I've been in my life and im actually accomplishing things.

Not telling you not to do it, just encouraging you that you are worth a shot at life.

Hope you get clean before anything serious happens though, you get a whole new perspective on stuff when people you know start dying..including one of my best friends. Hang on tight!
 
elbow crook & forearms are the most popular spots. i used to use the veins in my hands until the tracks got so bad... i've used the veins in my feet a couple times...kinda hurts tho. my friend who had shitty veins would use her wrist veins & that worked well for her for a little. if you're good with the needle you could sometimes use the veins in your knuckles too haha
 
Hi again
I shot it,I swear to god it was a lot of heroin, I used a big spoon because it wouldn't fit in a small one.I dissolved it,I learned how to shoot it anywhere and it wasn't nearly as hard or painful as i thought
I felt an initial big hit,a large wave of dizziness and warmth but just that. It didn't hit me at all,like,I was feeling nice but I wasn't high at all.Seems like my tolerance is fucked up.
 
Well, people IV it for that rush, ya know? But I do know plenty of people who actually prefer the feeling of it snorted, who don't care that much for the rush, and would rather the longer duration high from snorting.

Man I think that the quality of the high is way different from different Roa.I have smoked it and I think smoked high is much more intense than the snorted one.I've come to the conclusion that the faster it gets to the brain, the better the high.Cause that initial rush doesn't just last seconds, it's there for some time.Snorted heroin is damn good(well actually is not in the long term) but I think the cons outnumber the pros.It's full of dizziness and nausea. Smoked is full of nodding, a burning sensation in your heart and less nausea.I can't really talk about injected heroin because I haven't actually done it.
 
If you value your health, don't use lemons to inject with, go find some vitamin C, pure citric acid, or white vinegar if you must. Injecting with lemons/lemon juice is a good way to get a fungal infection in your blood.

I once went on a IV crack binge. I was using lemon juice and I developed swollen and bruised softball sized lumps on my bicep and forearm. It was quite nasty and I could barely use the arm. Thank God it cleared up with antibiotics. It was a terrifying experience because I thought I was going to lose the arm Requiem For a Dream style.
 
well dude heroin is a bitch its the most amazing high specially that rush shooting up its something you really shouldn't get into its so good you wont want to quit I meen besides to all my fellow junkies heroin addict a good speedball nothing beats that not even sex shooting up some heroin and cocaine just a full body mind orgasm for 15 minutes you cant even function I would take a speedball over sex any time getting into the needle is something you should never do if you can but you really should start getting into shooting heroin but I know you wont listen to me I know I didn't when I started I wish I did cause I regret I didn't but down the line atleast a year from now you will wish you took my and the peoples advice that told you not to start shooting heroin, drugs or getting into the needle. ive been riding the horse for years now and I wish I took the advice when people told me not to get into the needle you will regret it once you get addicted to it brother wish I took a second thought and I wish you would homie but take care and be careful somedays this drug just makes me want to load up a gram at once and not wake up but hopefully I can get off it someday
 
but if you do shoot its best when u got the veins shoot in the elbow veins or back of hands/feet or under ur knee cap on the back of knee don't try the juggalar I got into it when my veins got all shot and its a lot easier to fuck urself that way just take ur time when I hit the vein I can feel it in my opinion pull the syringe back a lot and you will see the blood flow into it then u got it and shoot away maybe u just got veins that roll easy
 
and if u feel so useless and life aint worth shit you can talk to me brother I feel you trust me you got people here for you one blue light I apologize for the triple post
