I have a friend who WANTS to try shooting up heroin.............

He's 23 has done a lot of E and a couple of the more popular psychs lile L and Mush. He tried meth a few times an didn't like it. I asked him why and his response is he just wants to see how it is. He's curious.
He knows all about the high addiction potential and how it can easily ruin your life. The real irony in all of this is he sees the effects of heroin use everyday since he's a nurse at a methadone clinic.
Anyone got advice for my bud? I'm gonna have him read this thread.....

Everything said is pointless. He obviously knows the risk and dangers, if that's not enough to stop him, nothing is.
I want to shoot up heroin as well, I'm just not stupid enough to do it. I know what will happen, so I'm just not even going down that road.

Maybe sniff it instead of shooting it, if he's going to experiment with heroin. Or better yet, don't fuck with it.

I was like him once upon a time. Now on the flipside, if I could go back in time, I would probably knock out the person that shot me up the first time with IV meth.
Do not do it, you are pretty much ruining a life if you help him do this.

Sadly you only have a handful of options;
1) cut him off if it becomes a huge issue 2) report him to the police if its too serious 3) just let him be. Most people who do heroin i assume only do it a few times. The ones that become addicted get screwed over. Hopefully he is the former

Not a good idea at all, sometimes it only takes one injection and you're a junkie for life or worse.

OP's friend sounds exactly like me. These guys are the type that do one shot and are obsessed forever.
OP punch your friend in the face and tell him to stop being a retard for wanting to ruin his life.

I find this to be extremely unlikely. It almost seems absurd. Heroin is one of those drugs most people try to avoid, because of it's track record of turning people into strung out junkies. People feel pleasure on that shit they never would have otherwise, it's why they turn to it.
Saying people tend to only try it a few times, is like saying people only tend to try sex a few times.

Nah, that's shroomery propoganda.
In circles, literally 90 percent of the people around me that tried meth once were hooked and fucked their lives. Out of all those including myself I am the only person who recovered.
Heroin a million times worse to try then alcohol contrary to what you are told here, especially IV. IV drugs ruin you in a matter of weeks or months. It is a quick downward spiral and in half a year your friend will be on the street.

BC; when you werent even addicted to meth and posting how much you enjoyed it, were you listening to the shroomerites who said "don't do it anymore"
Noone likes advice. it rarely works. Whenever someone gives me advice I almost just ignore it completely and think "who the fuck do you think you are?"
and regarding the 80-90% statistic, the link above demonstrates that about a minute in ^

It's still cut with various other unknown substances/ fillers which makes injecting it into your bloodstream extremely dangerous and detrimental to your body. Now 100% pure heroin is a different story. Most of the shit on the streets is like 70-80% pure, if that much.

Statistical analysis > your opinion
And also, I think that the of having your life ruining completely over a high is just silly. The likelihood that your going to ruin your life completely simply isnt worth a temporary high

I tried heroin once years ago and haven't fucked with it at all since
Then again I sniffed it never shot it
I had/have a far worse problem with meth than I ever did with smack

If he's dead set on trying it, try to convince him to use a different ROA. I still think it's a bad idea though. When I was younger I had an obsession with heroin. I wanted to try it so bad and romanticized it. The only reason I didn't do it is because I didn't have any connections. Then, I saw some of my friends get into it. I traveled to the city with them and witnessed how shady it was to score. Many of my friends got hooked. Almost all of them are in jail or dead now. Ultimately, I decided not to try it. I'm so glad that I made that decision. It is a dead end road.
