Well I have only had morphine once in hospital after a serious car crash, and that was before I had ever taken B so I find it hard to compare the two. I remember when I had the injection I felt the warm rush traveling through my body as it went in( something that I have never had of of B. Then I got really drowsy and was having trouble staying awake on the xray table, and the technition was getting a bit anoyed having to keep waking me up. after the xrays I fell asleep and I was woke at about 3 in the morning by my friend who was in the car with me. We went for a fag ang it made me go all hot. On my way back to my ward I got all disorientated and threw up in the coridoor right next to the caretaker. ( He wan’t too happy) So I spoze I got a simlar effect nod wise but I don’t remember there being much else.
A friend of mine is on the RIOT program HRJ | Full text | Methodology for the Randomised Injecting Opioid Treatment Trial (RIOTT): evaluating injectable methadone and injectable heroin treatment versus optimised oral methadone treatment in the UK where he gets a hit of diamorphine a day, every day of the week. He says its ok but it doesn’t hold you all day so they still perscribe you methadone. He does say that it’s quite nce and you do get a nod of it though. Enough that he doen’t bother buying gear off the street anymore. It’s an intresting program TBH Because for one it’s so much safer giving people pure stuff rather than people banging up gear that is cut with all sorts of shit. There are also strict rules in the clinic though. You get brethalized as you do in a normal methadone clinic, and sometimes tested for benzos and other drugs. ( If you are know for trurning up off your nut they will test every time). When you are given the morphine, you are perminantly supervised by a nurse and you have to do it yourself. You, have to go in your arm in a good looking vein (no hands, legs groin etc) You can use a tourniquet but you only get three attempts/digs otherwise you are not allowed it and the nurse will DISPOSE OF YOUR HIT INFORNT OF YOUR EYES. My friend used to only be able to get himself in the groin and had really bad trouble getting his arms so the nurse suggested that he injected it intra-muscular rather that intra-venous. Where it is pure shiz you can skin pop it with zero pain unlike dirty street skag.
I was a bit jealous of my mate for being on this program while I was still using. It used to be really hard to get on. The first person I knew to get on it only got on it because he was basically dying from lung problems and smoking B was finishing him off quickly so they put him on this program to try and help him. But I believe he’s probably dead by now. Now my friend who I have been talking about hasn’t got any terminal health problems and got on the program quite easy TBH. He basicaly went for the assesment saw a doctor and he was in. I always thought it was for people who have tried everything to get of gear. ( the rumour I heard was you had to have had a meth script for at least 3 or 4 years befroe being considered, But I guess that was just hear say) I was speaking to him the other day while I was waiting for a bus and he mentioned that the RIOT program has just recieved more funding for a few years or something so I guess he’s happy LOL
So to cut a long story short, I don’t really know TBH LOL Sorry I couldn’t have been more of a help, instead of just going off on tangents on my morphine tales.
