good questions

First off swim strongly recommends you do not do this, it is really not worth it and it will lead to problems...but for the sake of you doing anything stupid(er) swim is here to offer a little advice.....

And for the love of God DO NOT MIX WITH SPIT AND INJECT!!!!! If you are going to do it use distilled water....

Heating it up could possibly vaporize your product therefore losing what you had and wasting your time injecting it....however it is a good idea to boil your water before hand to kill germs...

But if you must inject please check out some of the harm reduction sites such as this one http://www.harmreduction.org/idu/chapter2.html
and a good step by step with pictures here: http://www.jeoffory.info/drugs/how-t...ject-meth.html

Please note that injecting any drug is highly dangerous and can kill you quite easily, so make sure you study up and get as much info as you can on the subject if this is something you must do.....

And your topic has been renamed......

If you have any questions please feel free to ask....

Thanks for the info, the website seem helpful and what SWIM has been looking for. Would Hot railing be a better way to go to get the same rush?

[Sitbcknchill]

It would be safer for you, but as for you feeling the same rush as with injection swim highly doubts it...

SWIMS step by step instructions on shooting meth. Keep in mind, this is a work of fiction. SWIM hypothetically injected some meth into his friends arm the other day.....here is what he did.

1. Get dope.

2. Put a small bump in a spoon.

3. Get your rig and pull up some distilled or bottled water. Tap water is okay if it is the only thing available.

4. Mix the water with your shards and agitate with the cap of the syringe if it doesnt fully dissolve. Do not use heat. You might destroy the meth.

5. When it is fully mixed, put in your cotton and draw up the meth water. Make sure to rid the syringe of the air.

6. Put the cap on your syringe and put it aside.

7. Rub down injection site with alcohol.

8. Take the syringe and insert it into the preferred vein.

9. Pull out the plunger to make sure you got a hit.

10. If you didnt hit, pull it out, get rid of the air and try again.

11. Once to hit a vein....inject it, pull out and enjoy.

Your method may vary, this is just a brief summary. Feel free to ask any more questions, but this step by step along with the sites posted by sbnc should be enough.

cool

You wont get the same rush but it will be comparable. Start with a small amount though. The quality of street meth varies greatly so a bump might be enough for a hell of a rush. If it is not, you can always do more, but never less. It is the same with any drug and you will hear this again and again. Just be safe and know your limits. Read up as much as you can on injections and take all the proper precautions.

great write-up, harm-reduction at it best

[Octo42o]

Ya, thanks for all the input, really going to help me out. swim was thinking on his first injection he was going for the biggest vein on the top of his forearm. Any recommendations on good veins to hit.

Would ordering a rig online be safe to do?

[Sitbcknchill]

When swim first started shooting his veins were not really visible on his forearms and he kept missing. Soon after he started going for the ones on the top of his hand and the ones easily seen on his wrist, very few times did he ever miss with those, if he did it was due to the shaking. After he wore those out he went down to shooting in his feet.......Of course if you are trying to hide what you are doing the top of the hand is not a wise choice....But anyways, go for the ones that you would feel the most comfortable going into and since you are a rookie go for the biggest because you are less likely to miss a bigger vein...When you are in and you gently pull the plunger back and see the free flow of blood flooding into your rig you are in BUT when you see this DO NOT MOVE YOUR RIG.....Sometimes people think the are in and they move slightly and push through the other side of the vein and proceed to inject....which then you would have a potential abcess....

As for buying rigs,

You can order them online or you should be able to go into the store and buy them if you live in the US, with the exception of two states so swim is told....

[raven3davis]

SWIM shoots into the vein on the top of his hands but his friends forearm vein is HUGE. If you have not injected before, you might want to get a friend to do it for you. Try to get the smallest guage possible. 29-31 will work fine and never leaves a mark on SWIM.

[Octo42o]

SWIM's gf injects heroin, Heroin isnt SWIM's drug, Meth is. SWIM just wanted info on the subject.

[old hippie 56]

If you got your mind made up about doing this, just make sure you follow the instructions listed here and the links for harm reduction. Swim quit the needle a long time ago, but he is not one to preach on the pros and cons. Be careful.

[raven3davis]

If your gf injects h, get her to inject the meth into you just so you can get down the technique by watching first. The technique for injecting is the same, the process for mixing up the dope is just a little different. Dont let her take a flame to your meth spoon!

[Octo42o]

SWIM wanted to know mentioned before where can you get needles in stores. Like what stores can needles be purchased in local stores?

Nearly any drugstore will sell them to you, just tell you need some U-100 insulin needles with whatever needle length you desire, 1/2 inch, 5/8 inch. They come in bags of ten.

[jesusfreak666er]

swim justs wants to throw a lil opinion in here, swim doesn't do meth but is a big dextro man. Swim is wondering why someone would inject something when they could smoke it. isn't smoking nearly instantaneous and has a rush... idk injecting something you can smoke doesn't make sense to swim (since unlike heroin smoking is rather efficient)

[tina_craig]

You can't inhale a 1/4g at one time though!!

[Octo42o]

Swim personel opinion on smoking, is smoking is for pussies. Smoking doesnt even give swim a rush when snorting a fat line of crank. Swim only smoked a couple times, nothing like the pain and rush you get from that. Injecting would be the next best thing. Eating is great but swim rather just snort and looking forward to injecting.

[old hippie 56]

When swim quit the needle, snorting made him really sick. So, smoking was a new deal to him. It gave him a rush, not like shooting, but, still a rush. Try not to get too excited about shooting up, Octo42o, that needle will turn into your worst enemy if you ain't careful.

[andi_1]

swim knows that's right ... the needle WILL turn into your worst enemy. there's nothing like slammin.... smokin doesn't even come close, but it's probably the safest way to go.
swim is very new here and recently posted a question, but never got an answer. this is my second posting.
long story short, swim started snorting meth at 17, smokin at 19 and bangin meth at 20. now swim is 28 and clean for 1 yr and 4 months. but swim has a definate chemical imbalance. swim was a space cadet for so long she just doens't feel "normal" now that she is off the evil stuff. swim had in the past been on celexa, lexapro, zoloft, and recently the doc gave swim paxil, and the ocassional lorazepam. is this what swim needs to be on?????????????????????? how is proxac compared to paxil????????????
please answer honestly.... i'm in the midst of trying paxil, but if there is a better suggestion, feel free.... i'm listening !

[mick mouse]

Actually, SWIM would respectfully differ with Tina_Craig, you CAN inhale a 1/4 gram if its in rock form and you do it hot rail style. SWIM always called it a "hot-rock" and its a blast! Sometimes, you can even get two of them done before your tube cools down.

[MizzWhizz]

this swim has only ever injected meth, so cant compare it. swim loves shooting, but would never ever get someone else into it, at it has a powerfull hold on you! swim assumes same rules apply as with most drugs: eating has the mildest but longest lasting effect, shooting has the biggest effect but lasts shortest and snorting is in between...am i right?

SWIY would definitely want to try bupropion (Wellbutrin) if she never has before. Often just the thing for someone with an uppers-related sort of brain imbalance, as it's chemically related to stimulants and is considered to affect dopamine and norepinephrine. Those SSRI's just may not do it at all.

Snorting is about the same as eating, b/c only 30-40% is abosorbed in through the nose, the high mostly comes from the drip and going into your digestive system. And Swim would have to say smoking has the shortest effects, then slamming, then eating/snorting are about the same except the adrenalin rush from snorting is a great rush.

[Octo42o]

The needle tore a hole, insane rushing. Swim did about .1 in the first shot the cranked .3 in the second the snorted about another .2-.3 after speeding awhile.

If you really must go there (and SWIM can tell you from experience thatyou are opening up the very gates of hell to let yourself in), then do about .3 to .5 and that'll give swiy a real bell ringer! If Swiy must then do it up right.

That is bad advice for a first time IV meth user. Start much smaller than that, figure out your dose slowly, don't rush right into a big dose, that is just plain stupidity.

As for the buzz, SWIM used to find injecting meth would give her the high that she was always trying to reach with smoking. With smoking it felt like SWIM always needed just a little bit more, like she could never quite get the buzz she was looking for.

Also SWIM has noticed psychosis is much more common with smokers than with IV users, not really sure why this is.

From SWIM's experience, there were less negative effects with IV use. With smoking SWIM found the health of her mouth and lungs deteriorated rather quickly.

SWIM has to agree that the immediate risks of IV meth use is much higher than with smoking though, especially if a person doesn't know what they are doing and doesn't know their correct dose.
