Question Harm reduction/ needle exchange.

Has SWIYs had experience with Needle exchange/ harm reduction programs? SWIM is interested in these services, but SWIM is affraid of any police that might be around waiting to bust him.

Re: Harm reduction/ needle exchange.

SWIM too would be interested to know. Mainly if they give you needles bigger than 1 CC. SWIM is sick of tiny insulin needles.

Re: Harm reduction/ needle exchange.

One might think that they would distribute syringes larger than 1 cc considering that diluting your shot is better for the veins. But then there's the problem with needle gauge. SWIM heared that they only distribute very fine gauges like 30's. SWIM feels that using a 30G with something like a 3cc or 5cc syringe is frustrating (difficult to get a register and takes a while to unload the shot).
