Quaility Off

I live with a current user, which can be trying at times. But being on Meth makes it easier to deal with than I thought it would be. He's my Brother And he's rooting for me. He works, and I haven't been, so that I can focus on my recovery for the first few months. He's been paying for my bus pass and helping with cigarettes and stuff.
Here lately He's been complaining about the Quality of the Dope he's been getting, and I hate to see anybody sick. But it made me wonder where it is that this stuff is coming from and does the quality differ depending on where its from. Here it comes in hard packed wafers ranging from white to brown. Sometimes he's so high that when he's nodding I have to check that he's still breathing. Other times, he's sick after a couple hours. He thinks the majority of the stuff around here comes from South America. Just wondering if some of you guys in the rest of the world new where yours was coming from.
Dude, don't know where u r but here in the Antipodes its all crap.Dirty dumb stuff that dries yr sniffles & relaxes the bod but thats about it.WHEN u can find a person who #1 will answer the phone #2 doesn't have a date w/ their parole officer or their hairdresser or #3 can complete a transaction in say, 8 hours or less. The total incompetency here is UNREAL. Just as well easier 2 get fed up & give up. I thought it was a business?These wingnuts do not grasp capitalisim at all.
CONGRATS on getting clean, I have a brother to who still uses. I'm in the states "most"" of what I use to buy was loose white "looks like coke". Sometimes you could buy packed brown ranging from light to dark color. I got tar "from mexico" here and there much harder to find. I've not bought in 11 months. Right before I stoped everything seemed to be crap. Even the white that was always good, seemed less good. Some of what I use to buy was packed in wax paper with witty designs printed on the paper. The best was in wax printed with Pimp Juice it had a monkey with a top hat and a needle in his arm. I got this brown packed in wax paper with a skull and crossbones no words on the paper. I thought I was gonna DIE I got violently ill ! I almost went to the hospital that was bad bad DOPE. I stoped a week after that. I hear a lot of heroin comes from Afghanistan "don't know 4 sure don't hold me to this as 100% true" and that the War is causing the heroin quailty to decline. My older brother who dose not use: says the usa sprays plant killers on poppy fields in the middle east. The srpay is causing poppy farmers to harvest early and it's causing a lot of real bad DOPE full of bug killer.
BTW I just read this news story about quality it seems as thou this summer a better supply will be coming. http://news.scotsman.com/scotland.c...fm?id=517982006
afghanistan.......scotland........wherever...... who gve a f*ck..and quality ? we r addicts.....did we even care ? that man could have been selling me rat poison for all I knew but I still paid him to give it to me..............we got whatever we could wherever we could and after a while, no matter what the quality......its not about getting high..just not getting sick........
besides we r not getting anything pure....here in the states......here in the city its cut down wiht so much sh*t, and who knows with what b4 we get it.its a business....those dudes down in the hood where I copped r businessman....they dont care about quality, only in the money we hand them
Back in 2000 there was a MAJOR MAJOR drought here in Dum Dum Town & only later we pieced it together the idiot Taliban burnt the poppy crop, those miserable gits..."There is no fun in Islam" that is a direct quote from the Ayatollah Khomeni, and you can say it again, brother, in 50 red neon letters...This drought caused a major surge in Ice use,down to this day, amphetamine psychoses cases in the emergency wards,(they had to install bulletproof glass in the nurses' stations) street assaults went up, All were Flipping. Then I heard No.Korean sailors were bringin it in in the diplomatic bag, raising $$ to build those nukes, I mean the geopolitical fun never ends does it?Maybe we oughtta pool our $ , buy a sub off the Russians, pack it full of Afghanistan's finest, sail round the world makin deliveries. That's what the Colombians tried to do.But the DEA put the kibosh on THAT endeavour. Back to square one, Kids!
Maybe it's time to stop?
That is true about the U.S troops burning down the opium! In the U.K it is thought that 85% of our gear comes from Afghanistan! But as you say we never really gave a s*** about where it came from and what the hell was in it! I live so far north that by the time it came thru all the citys we only got about 20% heroin in a bag anyway! So what the hell was the other 80%??? But Im trying not to think about that now as Im determined to get clean! just need a little help along the way!
P.S. Thankyou for that link to the scotsman Zerogirl it will only be a matter of time before it creeps up to the north east of scotland! Thankgod im out of it! Well im 100% determined at the moment! Even if I wanted to my parents have lost all trust in me. My Income Support is straight in her bank and i hav moved 40mile away from my home town to my parents so the only dealers i had contct with in Aberdeen was about a year ago and that was for buying in Teenths so would have no idea where to get a tenner bag (Blessing in Disguise)! My hometown has a bad rep for the highest percentage of heroin addicts per population in scotland so I think i did a good thing by getting the hell out! but in a catch 22! had a clean boyfriend on blockers but was taking in front of him every day and was only a matter of time before he slipped back! So ive left him behind with a raging habit and the guilt I feel is Overwhelming! Im sorry for babbling but Im just so chuffed to have found a site where I can receive help!
