Because route of administration plays a huge part in your return on reward. Snorting only gets you a bioavailability rate of around 25-30%. Shooting gets you 100%. So when you snort instead of shoot, you lose over 70% of your available dope.
In my city it's a pretty common thing for junkies to hang around bars/coffee shops and snatch unattended phones.
And then there's plugging, which nets close to 100%; but for some reason junkies are averse to butt stuff, as if that's a bridge too far.
But it'd be useless as soon as the IMEI is blocked... or is that not a thing people do/can do in the US?
Agreed. It's because dope constipates you, and plugging doesn't absorb properly unless you're cleaned out.
Speaking of.... which one of them wields the babyspoon every couple weeks? I've overheard old married couples on pain meds talking about it more than once.
The caption on that post was about how she loves that the elevator going up to her therapist's office has a full length mirror.
Serious question: are they beyond the help of enemas and suppositories? Or is their junkie brain convincing them that a baby spoon is preferable?
The femoral vein is accessible just over an inch down, i.e. too deep for an insulin needle but reachable with something longer like a winged infusion set. The acronym is VAN from medial to lateral - vein, artery nerve i.e. feel for the pulse and drill down a cm medially. It is fat enough to last ... the rest of one's life.
Enemas, yes; but only after drinking a shitload of water; along with a full bottle of mag citrate (stimulant laxative). Miralax will usually cause paradoxical constipation in junkies, but they don't know that. In any case, the key is hydration. Doing either laxatives or enema alone is just liable to; A: not work, or B: cause painful cramping, ripping, tearing, or worst case hernias, prolapse, etc.
But from what I’ve heard, a lot of them hide their stuff up there. Well, the junkies that also sell it at least.
Someone needs to warn all the gays about this grave butt danger then because gay guys are sticking fingers, fists and all kinds of wild things up their butts. ER docs have some impressive “crazy stuff stuck up the butt” stories. Nevermind fucking inmates keistering an impressive array and amount of things, including shanks. Fuckers use their butts like hikers use their backpacks.
That's an inmate thing; but yeah, if they've spent time in prison (not jail). Though I don't doubt that Lurch has any compunctions, but with Luna around there's no need; he likely uses her meatwallet instead. That tactic is far more common amongst junkie couples than keistering.
I actually learned about plugging/rectal administration from a true & honest functional junky, along with a few other harm reduction life-hacks. But forget about self-control, for the most part addicts are entirely too lazy to even listen.
"Normal" penetration with digits or objects is fairly safe; from what I understand, the sharp digging/scooping with a single finger or implement is the dangerous bit. And when they're also packed full of shit the consistency of modelling clay, well..... though probably aren't many will admit or even recognize they gave themselves neuralgia that way.
To add to this -- if anyone is interested, look up NMDA antagonism + intermittent hypoxia. It is the (probably "a") mechanism by which methadone is beginning to be thought to be cardioprotective (sometimes at large doses it can cause long QT though).
