Yeah, Wican, but that's a side-effect of the OD. The point is that heroin itself, when used in non-lethal doses, doesn't have any damaging effects on the brain or body.

it depresses the respiratory but it also gunks up all the receptors in your brain right? I never ever met a happy or light hearted junkie.

"Gunks up the receptors in your brain"? Sure it throws your brain chemistry out-of-balance, temporarily, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't damage (i.e. wear out) your opioid receptors.

Sure, a lot of junkie's may be unhealthy, but it's due to not eating/poor nutrition — seriously.

You realize that heroin is just a form of morphine, and is converted to morphine in the brain, right? And you realize that morphine is one of the most popular painkillers there is, and people are hooked up to it IV everyday of their lives?

You're also not taking into account impure heroin. Pure heroin isn't bad for the liver.

Every dose you take puts you a step closer to physical dependence and increases the likeliness of you taking another dose. Only when you use a couple of doses in series does this become readily apparent, but there is a price to pay for every dose.

Even an oral dose of Morphine (so any use of Heroin definitely) can cause all this wholesome goodness:

* dizziness
* lightheadedness
* drowsiness
* upset stomach
* vomiting
* constipation
* diarrhea
* loss of appetite
* weight loss
* changes in ability to taste food
* dry mouth
* sweating
* weakness
* headache
* agitation
* nervousness
* mood changes
* confusion
* difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep
* stiff muscles
* shaking of a part of your body that you cannot control
* double vision
* red eyes
* small pupils (black circles in the middle of the eyes
* eye movements that you cannot control
* chills
* flu symptoms
* decreased sexual desire or ability
* difficulty urinating or pain when urinating

Some side effects can be serious. If you experience any of the following symptoms, call your doctor immediately:

* slow, shallow, or irregular breathing
* blue or purple color to the skin
* fast or slow heartbeat
* seizures
* hallucinations (seeing things or hearing voices that do not exist)
* blurred vision
* fainting
* hives
* rash
* itching
* tightness in the throat
* difficulty swallowing
* swelling of the arms, hands, feet, ankles, or lower legs


You fell for the heroin lore, the seduction of opiates and the image around it. You may find yourself trying to explain the above list away.

In a way you're buying into a "heroin is harmless" myth. That means you are in the dangerzone of getting addicted, even if you have never used.

If you want to dance with a Demon then that is up to you, but for the love of YOU never let the dance take your mind off the fact that you're dancing it with a Demon, nothing less.

I use Opium tea myself, so don't say I'm biased just to dismiss my warning.

I dunno, I think you guys are going the other way with this- too liberal. Heroin is worse for you than you guys make it out to be.

The thing is: that's just a list of temporary bullshit, all of which isn't necessarily bad (like "lightheadedness" :smirk:)

All me and suimush aresaying is that heroin doesn't fucking cause permanent brain or bodily damage. And a junky on the street who shoots any heroin they cna get their hands on and hardly ever eats isn't a fucking good example of heroin use — so many fucking variables.

Haven't you ever seen a show where they show the effects of alcohol on the brain and body, usually backing it up by displaying PET scan results and things like that? When was the last time you ever saw anything concrete like that on how heroin degrades your body. All they ever fucking talk about is the external variables like AIDS, fucked up veins (which can be avoided), malnourishment. The fcat of the matter is that in non-lethal doses, heroin isn't inherently bad for you.

You do realize that junkies shoot up or sniff 20 bags a day right? You do understand that, that is a daily intake of a lot of drugs right? You get me? You think our bodies are made to digest morphine non stop? By the pile? Too much of anything is a bad thing!

I think most people die because of the cut, or the purity.
H in my area is the rest of the countries meth the side walks were at one time covered with junkies and vomit.

They got hepatitis, they went to jail, they got sober or they died. So many of my friends died.

So many died that i would straight up dropkick someone in the face if they tried to sell me that shit, hell I'd dropkick them in the face for doing it.

I hate how it ruins lives, i hate what it did to all the people i knew.

See you can say they chose to do it, but when you are 16 and on the streets, you didn't choose to be there, you had nowhere else to go. Some scumbag with his pants falling of his ass or some fadded punks got some drugs. They are older then you and you wanna fit in. So you do a bit, now you run with a crew of junkies. Not all of them are out of control, but there is always that hand full. The older crew disperse into the ether the young crew continue the cycle. Looking for the new lost souls.
Addiction~ no money~ theft~ prostitution~ crime~ more drugs ~more crime~ suicide~ jail~ more drugs~ more crime~ more suicides~ more murders~ more crime~ more death~ more jail.

it takes some real balls and a spine to smack the reality of heavy addiction, cuz when you break your family, and you have no one else, you have no where to go, life gets rather shitty. It takes some real balls to get clean. A lot of people never do.

Yet i am a hypocrite. Never did it when i was young when my friends were all about it. I saw how they died and looked like shit, and went to jail. Never wanted to fuck with it.

But then had an accident and was made into a addict over night, ran that way for a couple years till i got my shit straight. Lots of pain and depression followed suit after all the mind candy and numbness. Having feelings after being on a morphine auto piloted cruise ship was wack. Not being able to do anything with out a nice dose to get me started was weird.

I think thats one of the cool things about the drug. It can keep you going when you alone won't. Like after that accident, i was crushed. But the meds kept me high, kept me afloat so i wouldn't sink into the ground so to speak.

I just think that the drug is fire, and it takes real balls and the right mind to use it. Other wise it can become to much, can take to much.

People have the right to choose. But they also have the right to have quality stuff. I don't want my kids going to the ghetto someday to by drugs of a bunch of ghetto thug killers.

Thats rather academic.

You assume availability of pharmaceutically pure heroin. Thats not reality. And when people develop a problem with the substance, you are discounting them from the list because "it is their fault".

In your line of reasoning meth is OK too, just stick to 5 mg a day orally right?

You want it to be safe. It is not.

Initial responsible use often leads to the junkie on the street. Not so with pot. There are no pot junkies anywhere in the world but there are in fact heroin junkies everywhere in the world.
Thats not the peoples fault, unless potsmokers are better people than heroin users.

And how do you want to use that heroin?

Swallow it? no one does that.
Snort it? mucous membrane damage.
Inject it? artery wall damage.
Smoke it? lung damage.

If you expose rats (who have no cultural bias against heroin abuse) to a supply of heroin, most of them will in fact become addicts. They will become junkies. The only way not to become a junkie is by going against your nature, to walk the path of most resistance for the rest of your life. Many can't.

Heroin rubs your brain the wrong way and makes you increasingly inclined to abuse. That sir is HARM.

We pretty much agree with each other :thumbup:

Hey, Wiccan, is smoking impure street heroin cause for concern? I've been wanting to get into opium, but opium's rare; heroin would be easier to get, but I'm concerned about vaporizing all the things it could be cut with? Am I just being paranoid and is it pretty much just has safe as opium, which is a crude substance?

I never identify with that. I know what you mean when people do that. When friends talk about musicians like that my mind kinda goes blank.
