How to avoid potential overdose:

if you live in a locale where "overdose" kits are given to opiates users ( many methadone clinics provide these to their clients), give yourself the Naloxone injection provided in the OD kit.

 

Opiumfiend, speaking of....your hangedman picture is very cool. I tried to PM you but I couldn't. How can I get ahold of you? I'd like to talk to you regarding you graphic arts skills.

Thanks!

As a new user...only about a month every 4 or 5 days..how much would I have to snort to OD....is it common to OD? I just don't want to end up dead.

 

I agree with Shocbomb I have OD twice both times I was too lazy to test the gear or I had someone else mix my gear. Music and environment may help you psychologically but when you od you od. both times I
had someone with me. I have revived my friend with an injection of salty water to increase blood pressure followed by cold shower and coffee. it works for a minor OD but for major music won't do much.

 

If you are dosing to the point where what song is on the radio determines whether you live or die you might be well advised to

1-use less
2-go to rehab
3-use only with a friend who will bite the bullet and call 911
4-choose that song carefully, in case it's the last thing you ever hear

Not neccessarily in that order

 

He said it might help you psychologically...as in the set, setting and mood you are in can vastly help you out, believe it or not. Soothing music could actually calm you, and prevent you from stressing out so much that you have a heart attack. It's much less stress if you are in a familiar place. He never said that a song was determining if he was going to live or die, learn how to read a post.

 

Opiate overdose isn't due to freaking out and having a heart attack, it's more like being so mellow you forget to breathe. The advice in the original post is not bad advice, just better suited to speed, coke, or (most of all) psychedelics.

 

People should just be smart about the does they give themselves, regardless, if you have the same dealer or not. I'm not going to sit here and jynx myself by saying that I have yet to OD off of drugs... but I will, however, say that I play it smart when I do stick a needle in my arm. My life is to precious for me to waste over a drug.

Blah, it's just me though...

Oh come on peoples just smoke opium. Fuck injecting heroin. Or at least snort H, lol.

 

ROA doesn't mean anything. It's just as addictive, physically, AND mentally. Don't kid yourself. You aren't any better because you only smoke Opium.

 

Well I didn't say there aren't any risks with opium but the risk of overdose is dozens of times less when smoking opium vs injecting heroin. You even need to be a lot careful with snorting powdered H. The ld50 of heroin is one of the worst.

 

^Where did you get information about the LD50 of H? Most people know their limits when they are using Heroin...the problem lies in how pure/cut the H they are getting is. One week they could be using bags that are of decent quality, the next they are shit, the next they are 15x stronger then the first week, and OD because after having the shitty batch, they up it again.

 

Chuck Norris once overdosed. The heroin could not be rescusitated.

 

^rofl.

 

It takes at least twice the effective dose to od on heroin. Yes that is true that most H users know their limits and control their dosages. But the ld50 is still as crappy as datura.....although it's a lot easier to control the dose of smack than datura.

 

EDITED: Sorry i just realized i posted in the wrong section..



scored a g of H 2day...tried to slam some but it didnt work out..i wasnt so sure of the amount of water i had to add..second when i got the mixture cooked and threw a cotton piece to the spoon it sucked up all the mixture and i couldnt suck them up the needle :S

anyways i re-did the process but this time with no cotton..i got the mixture in the needle, found a vein stuck the needle to the vein but i couldnt pull blood to it :S

so my questions are:
1- how can i kno the exact amount of water i need?
2- I know it obligatory 2 use a cotton so i need some1 to shed more light about usin a cotton?
3- Whats the reason that i couldnt get blood out of my vein? thou a couple drips of blood showed after pulling the needle out of my hand.

Peace.

 

you shouldnt be shootin up if you dont know what youre doing man. thats a surefire way to OD. get someone who knows their shit with you so they can prepare and give you a smaller dose to start with or something.
