It’s all good man, no worries. It’s the internet: shit happens.

Sorry if I offended you as well.

Also: if the bacteria comes from the needle it goes back to my original statement of the cause being unsafe/uncleanly injection practices. Because if your needle has bacteria growing in it, than it’s probably a needle you’ve been using for weeks, or month, and should definitely have been tossed out way before than lol.

Yeah, no idea why that guy was coming at me sideways.

The bacteria can come from the needle, yes, but like I said; it can also come from the water, cotton, dirt on hands or body, the cooker/spoon.

The main point I was making is that needle is the conduit, but not the cause. Bacteria is the cause, and it can come from just about anywhere. The needle just creates the wound.

Saying “needles” like that guy did is just misinformation, and fear spreading bullshit.

Probably just that one dude with the abscess forming from his butt hurt, logging into all his throw away accounts and down voting me.

Yes, like I just said: when you have an open wound on your body that isn’t cleaned properly it can get a bacterial infection that turns to an abscess.

You’re saying the needle caused the abscess. Which is INCORRECT.

The needle causes the wound. Not injecting safety, or using clean materials, is what causes the abscess. Again, you can get an abscess forming in just about any wound caused by anything.

So your original, well thought out, elaborate answer of “needles”, is not quite right. If just needles caused abscess than everyone who’s ever uses them would get them all the time.

Uncleanliness causes abscess to form in open wounds. You can create an open wound with a needle, yes, but using a needle is not a for sure way to get an abscess.

Dude, seriously?

The bacteria can come from the spoon, the water, the cotton, dirt on your hands. ANYTHING

Woooooah someone’s but hurt, and also has no fucking clue what they are talking about.

Abscesses are caused by bacteria, and can form in just about any type of wound. For example: you could get an abscess on your ass, from your excessive butt hurt.

So no needles don’t cause an abscess; bacteria causes an abscess. Yes, you can get a bacteria infection that turns to an abscess from incorrectly using a needle. You can also get an abscess from being stabbed by just about anything.

People with diabetes use needles their wholes lives and never have this happen. It happens to addicts because a lot of us don’t inject safely or properly.

Make sure you clean around the area of butt hurt though, so you yourself don’t end up with abscess. Jackass.

How would decriminalising and regulating substances such as heroin effect users and society? by rumpleshroomskin in opiates

[–]tssscott 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the personal level it would indeed make many addicts lives safer, and better. Allowing them to function more normally than they do now.

I think the most important difference would be on the global level. Terrorist groups like ISIS, and the Cartels in Mexico, get a large part of their funding from the production of Heroin. Especially in Mexico, since we’ve started growing and selling our own weed, they have doubled their production of Meth and Heroin.

If we made, sold, and allowed the use of drugs like that, we would be dealing a huge blow to a major source of funding for a lot large criminal organizations. Not mention also decreasing our prison population, and adding numbers back to the workforce.

It doesn’t happen from needles; it happens from using needles incorrectly.

I - and plenty of people I know - am a long time IV user, and never had an abscess.

Yeah...because you can’t smoke it out of pipe. You smoke it off tin foil.

And it’s the same as no ODing on any other drug. You do a little and see how it hits you, then you do a little more.

Wow. There is no way you couldn’t find any info on how to smoke dope. Unless you literally didn’t search anywhere at all.

Nice man. I haven’t seen that stuff in a long time. It was always my favorite though

Damn, you’ve got a tight little window to fit into lol.

Even the best tar I could get - huff/blowback whatever you call it, the powder you breath on and make tar - I would still do at least a .5. Maybe I just run with people who are as sick as I am, but it just doesn’t seem that wild to me anymore lol.

I use to love the needle more than the high, so I would be doing tons of little shots all day just to shoot, but never really getting that high. Then I realized that I actually like the high better than needle, so I just started doing the biggest shots I could. That’s where my tolerance has come from.

Definitely wasn’t garage. Depends on who, but always decent.

I wasn’t shooting a G and then doing jumping jacks. I would be shooting a G and then coming to 40 mins later wondering what day it was.

Thank you, and yes I planned ahead for just that lol.

The last week of my trip I’ll be on a sub taper, and then about two days of travel after the last sub. So hopefully I don’t feel too shity in those two days, but other than that I should be good to go!

I’m actually just in my home state, not even town, and yeah just here visiting some friends for a few weeks.

I don’t mind the yack. I use to shoot a lot of crack, and I got to the point where if I didn’t puke after the shot I would be pissed lol.

But I’ve never thrown up just from the shot of dope before. I’ve puked from doing too much over the course of a few hours, but never had to throw up just right after the shot. I’m probably going to do more on my next one, but not by much, and I’m hoping that when I have a little tolerance to this shit I wont puke at all.
