So my veins r bulging out I hit one with a needle pull back nd no blood comes up. I can see it's obviously in the vein. I did this all over my body nd when I pull out I don't bleed. Everytime I IV I wanna fucking cry. I keep wasting good heroin nd getting skin infections. Heroin only gets me high IV. Does it go into the vein if u pierce it but no blood comes nd nd it feels like skin popping?
 
You are either going too far in, not deep enough, or the veins are collapsed from using them too much. Try hitting in a spot you have not tried yet, and once you get the tip of the needle in pull back to create a vacuum so that once you get in a vein it will fill with blood.
 
which way are you shooting? its supposed to be in the direction of the heart (as veins bring blood back to the lungs/heart). aside from that, like Tommyboy said, make sure you arent going completely through the vein. last but not least, ensure they are veins and not arteries (depending on the location, very possible to hit an artery instead, which can cause problems). thats all i know... ive never IVed anything and dont plan to, thats just what i know from general research and knowing a guy who shot dope 10 times a day or more (and watching him do it several times, once or twice even in my car).
 
Yep I know all that. Ugh I guess I'll just stick to smoking opium nd plugging suboxone for an opiate high.They're much cheaper nd they give me a better, stronger high than heroin nyway, I prefer the longer lasting opiates. Idk why I'm doin dope today.
 
Vaping heroin gives a similar high to shooting it, u just need a lil more since the bioavailability is lower right? I hate the taste tho eww. We got the brown nd beige powder here in Jersey, it's not as good to smoke as black tar but it's some of the most potent in the country
 
I've had the syringe too full one time and I was freaking out - I must have pierced like 20 spots trying to register. Eventually, I was like fuck it this makes no sense, and pushed in - I was in the vein and probably was every time because after I pulled back after injecting some, I drew blood.

Note that I don't use opiates anymore - this was some time ago.
 
Your missing the vein. You need to get the needle deep inside of the veins way, not crossing them. Once you got it into the "tube" go gently pushing more. Stay safe
 
Hmm. My friend has this problem alot..
Pull back the plunger before stickin yourself, this way when you stick yourself you'll be able to see when you hit.
If no blood is coming in, just move it around until you hit.

But make sure the plunger is pulled back and there is some air in the syringe.
I find that it also helps ALOT to go in at a 20 degree angle.
 
Plug the heroin...

Wait till your arm heals. Try again some other time.

Use better shooting technique... You are doing something wrong.

Whether it be missing or collapsed, poking your vein over and over again with the same damn needle is painful and really uncomfortable...
 
As said here, pull back. If blood gets in the sirynge, you got it my friend. It's easy just control yourself and don't be too frenetic. And please take care. We are here to help you.
 
Are you going in the correct angle? The average vein requires you to go in around a 15 degree angle. Deeper veins require a harsher angle of around 30 degrees and shallower veins sometimes less then 15, more parallel to the flesh.

9 times out of 10 when people are reporting your problem, their angles are off.
