Experiences - Heroin (Diacetylmorphine) experiences

Please post your experiences with heroin here. If possible note way of use / route of administration, dose, onset, peak, duration and after effects.

<DIV>Do you too have a preferred time to use heroin?


Usually when I wake up in the morning about 10 minutes later I take a big yummy nose of H. Aaaaaah! It gives me a very nice feeling and power for the day. When I use in the afternoon, the buzz is ok, but not that great anymore. When I take it in the evening after about 10 pm I usually only have a nice buzz for 20 minutes and then I start feeling sick, almost have to vomit sometimes.


Anyone else with similar experiences?</DIV>

Back when I was using heroin I never was much of a morning user . if I was to use in the morning I would most likely feel sick Much like bogumil did at night


I would much rather come home after work and do a big brown shot before getting into the shower . I've been woke up a few times after nodding off in the shower . I guess H. is more of a drug I use to relax rather than a way to get started for the day .

[bogumil]

I forgot: When I take a too big nose then the next2 hours are nodding and watching tv. So Im kinda forced to relax then

[plasticworld]

swim always yakks after swim takes hits of h. like after 30 min

[pintosarecool]

Actually, i've always found it to be quite a nice wakeup call in the morning myself.


But that's only if it's good shit that makes me feel swimy and lovely, not if it's the overly cut shit that'll make me nod off to soon and space the hell out while getting nautious. That stuff's for after dinner.

SWIM has only done heroin one time and it was a brown tar. his friend mixed 5$ worth with some water and he snorted it. swIm felt it come on in about 10 minutes and it was the most euphoric drug he has ever done. He wanted to smoke it, but he only knew how to inject or snort it, and wasn't sure if you could smoke the tar. It smelled really strong, like vinegar, but a small dab was enough to have SWIM smacked out for about 5 hours. SWIM had really weird dreams that night too. SWIM watched Dawn of the Dead and SWIM saw zombies in his dreams, then SWIM would wake up and they were still there, then they finally disappeared. It kinda scared SWIM, but all in all, heroin is a great drug. SWIM has good self control so he doesn't fear getting addicted to it, but heroin was far better than meth, cocaine, or any recreational drug swim has done. SWIM just closed my eyes and it felt very warm and cuddly inside. SWIM might try heroin tonight, but he wants to smoke it.

[devil]

So, could someone clarify exactly what it feels like? a floaty feeling? anything like E? tia

[bowlingforcindy]

whatever is feels like it seems i have missed out on this powerful drug. im kinda getting bored with the recreational ones aswel, they just shit.

[picpic]

How can you explain what a drug feels like? If you want to know, try it.

[dr.gonzo]

Swim just slammed some heroin for the first time.Swim has snorted it quite a few times, but decided to try injecting it because he was told that it was much better.


He was a little nervous, because it was some black tar of questionable quality, so he was sure to cook it well and use a cottonball to get it in the syringe. Getting the needle in was fairly easy because a rather large vein on the fore arm was used. Once the needle was in, he slowly pushed on the plunger. An intense wave of euphoria, blurred vision, and ringing in the ears immediately hit him. He spent about five minutes on his bed, breathing slowly until he was able to get up. He is still very out of it as he types.


All in all, he thought it was great experience, and cannot wait for his next time, when he will hopefully have something non-black tar.

[Crackkim]

smoked it couple of times it is taste good to smoke crack or heroin but its not i do it on daily basis

[icecrew]

yeah boiiiiiiiiii ur doin it baby, just dont do it too often

[rachamim18]

Well, I have been using since 1981 or so. My first time was in the army in Lebanon [Israeli Armyof course]. I was just a teen. then when I returned to the States I really got into it as my neighborhood, the South Bronx, was full of it [still is but it is loqw key now].

I have been on methadone [190] since 1994 but have just detoxed, todaybeing my last day [10 mgs. every 3 days down to 10 mgs.].I just got back on the figurative horse last Thursday and am about togo out and "cop" in a few mintes [7 bags or maybe a bundle of 10 depending on the price I get].

Raven: Yes, you can smoke it. That vinegar odor was simply the acetic acid that is used toconvert the opium [when speaking of tar] to heroin.

[Boyk]

wow, and the IDF didn't find out?

[Be-Bop]

Jesus on a pogo stick- where are all the full-time users? Reading the above gives the impression that all there is to SMACK is the blissed out euphoria!!! & even tho' i agree that it definately is GOD'S OWN MEDICINE (if HE made anything better he sure kept it to himself- bastard!), there is another side to the whole experience...i mean, reading people say how GREAT it is , but that they have the 'self-control' not to get addicted- well, i don't doubt that there are 'recreational' users out there, but i have heard that line TOO many times from people that have, a few years later, been completely fucked up, or dead!!! Or in jail, or ripping off the people that they love & care about, or...well, you get the idea. Don't get me wrong, i have been using for 18 years, & have had a habit for the last 14 (except for about a year, 6 months plus 3 +3 months), & i can't do without it- or, i have decided that i DON'T WANT to do without it, anyway. I heard a theory years ago, which doesn't have to be true to be at least philosophically valid- & that was that some people are born with a natural lack of endorphins in their brain & these people, once they try heroin, feel 'whole' for the first time in their lives & usually go on to be addicted. I know that mirrors exactly how i felt the first time i injected gear ( i have never done it any other way- i was shooting meth when i first tried it), it made me feel 'non-anxious' for the first time, needless to say i have pursued trying to hold on to that feeling ever since. I don't have time at the moment (it is past 6 in the AM), but i will post more extensively on the role of addiction in people who are prone to depression or have had 'difficult' lives another time.....I guess all i wanted to say was that heroin can be a lot more than a few hours of euphoria, & can lead some people into some pretty nightmarish situations, so slowly that they arrive in places that they NEVER could have imagined when they start 'recreationally' using...& then wonder, "What happened to my life, my morality, my friends, my home, my family?" I'm sure that this post will attract some replys along the lines of "Just because YOU couldn't handle it- don;'t presume i can't!"---But remember folks, this drug is a very powerful one, & not in ways that may be immediately apparent..actually the paucity of posts on this topic suprises me, "Where are all the junkies?"- too fucked up & poor to waste time posting when there is money to be pursued? & a habit to keep rolling! It is a full time job- a way of (half)life!!!But then again, who has time to worry about the horrible state of the world when they have a habit to keep them occupied & also provide a reward, relief from the existential pain of existence!!! Every day is like a movie where the good guys win in the end!!! I WANT MY SALVATION!!! vaya con dios!

	cool post with the facts & truth
	this is the reality of heroin usage for a great deal of peeps out there
	Extremely informative post, giving great insight into the 'other side of the coin'
	incriminating
	Scaremongering attempt. This might be true for some users but certainly not all of them

[icecrew]

hey man atr 1st SWIM said hed be a recreational user..now hes doin 10+
bags a week .. where will it lead he doesnt know as hes going to
college working plus keeping the habbit

[Be-Bop]

Not to be 'a downer', but at a guess, where it will lead is, (1) Out of college. (2) Major fuck-up & dismissal at job..or if there is access to money at work, de-frauding the company, or stealing from the till (3) Into dealing, crime, or getting a 'working girl' girlfriend, or, (4)probably worst one of all, constantly convincing yourself that you 'are just about to stop' & so it doesn't matter if you pawn, or steal, from family or friends coz you are just about to stop & so you will be able to get the shit out of the pawn shop..or you will make it up somehow..they will forgive you coz you 'are just about to stop'....this is the worst option...


Don't get me wrong, i'm NOT saying that this is predetermined, or that it is going to happen in the space of a year,it could take 10...but it is a pretty inevitable downhill slide. This has nothing to do with anything INTRINSIC to Diacetylmorphine, or even ADDICTION as such..it has to do with the fact that it is illegal, & consequently VERY FUCKING EXPENSIVE- the best advice i could give (apart from trying to stop!) is to, right from the start, but also constantly while youARE using, think about 'your morality' & what you areprepared/not-prepared to do for dope. Always remember that the worst thing that can happen is that you get sick, & it is never worth trading ONE day of 'not being sick' for thetrust & love of a good friend.They are the people who you will need when things get really bad & you want/have no choice, but to stop, for a while at least! Also,investigate the possibility of renting a place in the country & growing your own poppies..grow a hectare, produce a kilogram of pure Morphine & then acetylate into Diacetylmorphine (either piecemeal, or all at once) & then you should have enough for at least a couple of years, if not 4-5. I know this seems stoopid, but you are going to have to think outside the square to avoid the general progression of events outlined above...take care of yourself mi hermano..vaya con dios..Be-Bop

[cavalera]

never tried it, bit out of my league i think

[VincentVan]

Dear Be-Bop


Finally a posting (two actually) that make some sense. Not all that you say is necessarily true though. I have being shooting smack for 25 years (with variuos pauses of course, some of a few weeks ,some of a few months, once of more than a year) and I did graduate from university (and got a PhD too). I´m currently on methadone ( bought on the fluorishing danish black market) but as an user and an addict I manage( and I didfor many years) to keep a well payed job, to get married to a beautiful(unsuspecting ) woman and to have a beautiful daughter, buy the house of our dreams and a sail boat for our week ends, live very decently and even indulge in a few luxuries . All hunky dory then?


No . Even in my situation , which compared to that of other junkiesis undoubtly a privileged one, the life of an addict sucks. Big time. Heroin is an all consuming demon, and the story of my life is the story of a constant struggle against this powerful substance. The fact that notwithstanding this constant struggle something managed to bloom from the battlefield of my life, is something that never ceases to amaze me.


What surprises me, Be-Bop, is that you seem to have decided to devote the rest of your life to the pursuit of oblivion; don´t you find the prospect a terribly depressing one? Does that live time and energies for anything else in your life? Is that really ALL you want?


(I could just as well have written" All I want?").


I hope to hear from you Be-Bop. So long.


VV.

	Good advice regarding heroin addiction.
	Very honest perspective on living with addiction, albeit as said, an extremely priveliged one.

umm as young as i am (17) my exspeciance with drugs, exspecailly dope, of any kind it often makes me wonder why it took me so young. i started when i was liek 12 and i cant give it up. ive been in and out and in and out of detoxs rehabs grouphomes jail, you name it...ive done it. but like someone once told me "Reality is a crutch for people who can't handle drugs" and i firmly beleive that.

[d-outcast]

this last month I ve been obsessed with the idea of trying smack..but somany of my friends have scolded the idea!


they say it makes you far more distinct to society...and become worse in the context of socialisation
