How often do you use?

[bogumil]

Another question in the spirit of "Preferred time to take H". How often do you use and do you dose so that you can still do the normal things or do you give you the dose that makes you nod?

I usually snort (I only snort, smoking seems like waste to me and injecting isnt my thing) when I get up. Then it depends on if I stay at home or if I go out, how much I use. When Im at home I snort every two hours, but only so much that I could go out and am not nodding. When I go out I can be without H for about 8 hours then I start feeling uncomfortable.

What about you?

Since being on Methadone I don't do H as much anymore. When I was doing it though I used to do a shot when I got up and then between one and three more shots throughout the day. I can usually go eight or more hours before feeling uncomfortable. Even then though I can make to almost the 24 hour mark without getting to sick.

I usually take my prescribed 100mgs twica a day, If i do run out it will cost me on average $100-$150 at least two-three times a day just to feel normal :-(
I cant make it any longer than 12 hours without morph or H.

I'm the same as 1bad, I don't have gear anywhere near every day since being on a meth script, but before that, I used to have to get a bag (.2g-smoked) as soon as I woke up to straighten me out, then I'd have another two (one if I was broke!) in the day, and then one or two for bedtime. I'd start feeling uncomfortable after about six hours.
When my habit was at it's worst, I would need 3/4 bags a day just to keep me well, but I've allways found that heroin seemed to wear off much quicker with me than with other people, this pissed me off because I had to use more often than the people round me, but on the plus side, my rattle was allways over quicker too. (About three days.)

When I can afford it I'll usually buy 1/2g for AUD$300 yes thats US$225, and half that will make me nod.But otherwise I'll just grab a 50(.05mgs) or a 100(.1g). Rest of time it is methadone.I dont know how I supported my habit before methadone, but I was working and earning great money and putting it all into my left median cubital vein, minus rent and a little bit of food to give me the energy to score. Was in a very bad way at one stage, but I have accepted it now and enjoy being a junky,FUCK SOCIETY and its judgemental attitudes and lack of tolerance.Got me dole money today so I am just killing time before I go and spend nearly all of it on another 1/2g of lactose cut with some H,lol.

Man, H is epensive over there! I pay only 20 EUR for about 750mg! That usually lasts about 2 days.

Isnt it annoying? All the money we invest in the shit. I dont need much but still its maybe 100 EUR per week /150 $ maybe.

The following entry from a diary I found while dumpster diving is partly off-topic, but partly on-topic:

" If I look at an attractive floral arrangement, it provides me with the requisite aesthetic satisfaction for about 24 hours. I enjoy a nice flower show each morning. Now, it is true that starting at about hour 16 and definitely by hour 20 I am not in the mood for anything much more demanding than the most basic types of household chores. This is usually the state I find myself in upon awakening. Such intentional deprivation of the sight of my favorite flora is the only way to maintain a proper equilibrium. This way I'm at my peak when at work or otherwise engaged in social activities. Viewing floral arrangements is the best remedy for chronic endorphin deficiency that I've ever found, and works very well as an adjunct to exercise and healthy diet. Over three years ago I was able to get out of a year and a half debilitating depression this way. I had spent almost two decades wondering what was wrong with me and trying one establishment-sanctioned remedy after another. It would be good if more research could be done on this and related subjects, but in today's condemnational political climate it doesn't seem likely. In a few years, God willing, the pendulum may swing the other way."
