You might be a junkie if...

[VicVega12]

When you go to the hood to cop all the dealers on the street yell out your name.

When you use girl's cover-up makeup to hide your track marks.

When you scrape every last possible crumb off the bags, and then look all around the area of the spoon.

 

[VicVega12]

also...

if you don't call your dealer for more than 2 days he calls you and asks what's up.

you've sold 25 dollar movies for 2 dollars

no one will lend you money

You might be a junkie if you try to open a Gatorade for an hour and a half and just give up and drink straight from the sink.8) (girlfriend)

 

[Sprout]

You might be a junkie if you look at your currently badly broken knuckles and bruised tendon thinking only of the precious opiates waiting at the hospital in the morning.

 

[beengerman]

you might be a junkie if you actually do all these things.

A year after quittin , you are still findin needles and tourniquets and other shit layin around the house/in the trunk of the car, etc....(true story....I was cleanin out the trunk, and found one of them lil rubber tourniquets from the needle exchange in with all the other shit. And like i said.....I aint used in a LONG time. I am way past that life, and i cleaned the fuck out of all my stuff once i got clean for good, but somehow this shit just keeps poppin up in the weirdest places....

Im sure i can thank my dopehead self for alot of them....When i woul get really bangin dope and treat my self to a big shot (you know, when your usual get-well shot is a 5-bagger just to get off empty, so you prep a nice fat 8 bag shot) and i would say...well....I just might OD when I do this one, so just in case lets hide everything. an i would hide all my sets and ties and shit like that, in crazy ass places that nobody would ever find...just in case i woke up with a EMT standing over me

Now that i think back on that i cant believe how casual i took it....

So you might be a junkie if, every time after you prep your shot, you hide the rest of your dope and all your paraphenalia, just in case you OD , that way you know the cops wont find it and youll have some shit left over once you get back home from the ER. just to have the security of knowing that you got some bags left over to get right again after they ruin your 'perfect high" with that pesky "saving your life" shit.

 

[brimz]

You know you a junkie when:

On a trip to the city with your family, you all pass by a bum nodding out with a "please help me eat" cardboard sign around his neck, and you whole family either pittys him, or is disgusted by him.....

But you, YOU somehow find a way to be envious of this man with no home or no money, but just for the fact that he is nodding out, and you are not.

Love it totally relate

 

[rxpirate]

you start admiring people's veins. Sadly, I found myself doing this today. "Wow, look at THAT vein" I thought as a co-worker was standing at my desk.

Alot of junkies do that. In rehab when you meet people veins are a very popular subject.

You might be a junkie if you ever used toilet water to shoot up because you were so sick and couldn't get to the sink because of people in the room.

 

[flacky]

Yeah, I do that and I don't even IV...... (Admire other people's veins, that is)

 

[Raillery]

If you drop an open bag of dope in the toilet you just pissed in and water gets into it and the dope dissolves, so you empty the bag into your spoon and bang it anyways

 

[ech0s85]

^one mistake nobody ever repeats is handling drugs over a toilet. One time at work i had been on a coke run for a couple days and went to rack my last line on the top of this metal thing that held the toiled paper. While i was rolling up a paper to snort with the thing came unhinged and my line turned to a white cloud that floated down to the stall floor.

If it had been my last line of oxy i wouldve probably started crying and gone home.

 

[unsettled]

when at random moments you are able to rationalize the cost of your opiate habit by thinking of how much money you save on toilet paper due to the fact that you really only have a bowel movement once a week and it doesn't require much toilet paper if you know what I mean.

 

[tlks2Angels]

you have no spoons left in the kitchen
you have scortch marks on the counter from laying the spoon down
you go through cotton swabs faster then toilet paper
you find at least 5 old cottons when cleaning the house
find needles that you hid and forgot about
have nothing left worth value
the employees at pawn shops know you


and i check out everyones veins cant help it..mine suck im jealous HA!

 

[5tr4t05ph3r3]

There is soot on your walls.
You still buy incandescent light-bulb instead of buying energy-saving light-bulb.

 

[mario323213]

You wish you could go back to the day when 2 vicoden gave you a buzz...

I love this thread...

fuck i still remember those days! ha!

when you get a little rush when you just scored some and you have it in your pocket already
when you say to yourself "ill just save this for tomorrow" and then 30 min later "fuck it"
when you hate waiting for the dealer that always takes his sweet ass time
if you've robbed someone (meditating on how to do millions of schemes)
if you say "oh ill just get some tomorrow for sure" then the next day "fuck i should have saved some!"
IF YOU MAKE ANY LITTLE EXCUSE TO GET HIGH (make everything a special occasion)
EX:
"im going out with family fuck it"
"class is boring as fuck so fuck it"
"i should get smacked back..after all i AM watching a movie later"
"i got all this work to do might as well"

 

[mario323213]

If everyday you are tempted to pawn your xbox 360 at least 50 times a day, as well as everything else in your room.

hahaha i just did!

 

[brimz]

if you get through 2 boxes of tin foil a week and still end up using the other side to have a smoke cos u can't be fucked to get up.

 

[anemicroyalty17]

when the sight of a needle is beautiful and calming

 

[cj]

Every time you get cold its like oh fuck here comes withdrawls.
You spend 300 dollars a month on suboxone yet you still get high sometimes.
When you walk into the pharmacy the tech walks to the back and grabs a box of rigs.

 

[Opiatesrarely]

no no on my way back. like sometimes my guy will be giving me directions to a place or say follow me in my car if he says he has more shit at his place and i still have cashmoneys. then i wind up 30 minutes from home and with my memory there's no way i'm tracing my way back lol

dealers have lol'd at my sense of direction lmao. it's like i'll grasp science and math and philosophy, but little things like directions and normal everyday life stuff, nope

Are you a girl?

Try having a friend high as kite, come sit next to you pull up your sleeve and start trying to finding good vains when you don't shoot, then pulling out a needle(capped) and and start showing you how he would go about it. and what it would feel like.

That's not a friend, that's called a punching bag that you can throw into rush hour traffic.

A year after quittin , you are still findin needles and tourniquets and other shit layin around the house/in the trunk of the car, etc....(true story....I was cleanin out the trunk, and found one of them lil rubber tourniquets from the needle exchange in with all the other shit.

No. You are just dirty and lazy. My pet peeve is dirty cars. Nasty shit.
