Does a meth high last longer smoking a pipe or injecting?
My husband
is an addict; has been abstinent for almost a year now. But
honestly, his recent behavior makes me wonder if he's still
clean-- or not.
So my question is this:
Would his high last longer with the needle or the pipe?
I'd like some opinions on this, seriously. |

The needle
wears off quicker I think.
Its a immediate ingestion of all of the drug, when smoking it
takes time to enter your system.
I could be wrong, But that's my opinion. |

Hmmm,
well, maybe a better question would be this.......
How long does a meth high usually last?
I mean, if you smoke (or shoot up) ONCE versus using more as
soon as the jonesing begins?

For me...
about a couple hours on the needle.
Smoking.... depended on the dope, but 3 or 4 hours
But.. If I had dope... I'd smoke it more frequent

My high
lasted a lot longer with the needle too.
Especially with Meth. I probably slammed a 20 sack the last time
I fixed and I was high for a very long time.
I snorted crank and smoked ice.
All in all, I have to say the high with the needle lasted
longer.
YUCKY memories.
What makes you think he's slamming???
Finding evidence?
Hope all goes well with your situation.

Re: Does a meth high last longer smoking a pipe or injecting?
The method
of ingestion (iv - instantly enters blood stream vs. smoking -
<1 min) does not have a significant impact on the duration that
the drug is active in your system.
The amount used, however, does.
The body has limited resources to break down meth. At some
point, it will take longer to break it down when there is just
too much of it to attack at once.
The high felt from methamphetamine is felt due to the chemical
itself, and the amount ingested.
The route of administration only effects the euphoric rush which
is felt most strongly with IV use (instant rush), and least with
digesting by eating (no rush, slow overall good feeling).
I suspect that for those who felt IV use caused a LONGER high,
that they were comparing it to a lower dose of smoking or
snorting.

Re: Does a meth high last longer smoking a pipe or injecting?
The spoons
are all missing...........
And when he locks up in the bathroom I don't hear the repeated
clicking of a lighter, but just a single click.........
He doesn't lock himself in there all the time like he used to do
when he was smoking it, and he doesn't "seem" high for as long.
Like now he's not up all night, just till later than normal,
then (when he's out) it's out cold till morning.
Could be that I'm jumping to conclusions here, but something's
just not right.
For the record, I thought the high lasted a whole lot longer
than a few hours in any case. Guess it might vary from person to
person. Or maybe he was just using more every time the effects
started to wear off???

Unless it's some really potent stuff.
You can do mass bunk stuff and not feel a thing.
You can snort, smoke, and slam bunk stuff and not feel a thing.
You can snort, smoke, or slam some really good stuff and a small
amount of it and OD if you're not careful.
First hit with new dope is usually just a small amount to 'test'
the potency.
Amount does not matter. Ingredients do.... hence the Meth
epidemic. |

Yeah... he's banging it ( unless he's
eating pudding and throwing away the spoons when he's done )
Good luck to you.... |

Look under
the sink for your spoons. That's where I kept mine. |

Re: Does a meth high last longer smoking a pipe or injecting?
He has an
older sister and a younger brother that are both IV meth users,
so I sort of knew what to look for. So the missing spoons were
an immediate red flag!
His sister's two youngest kids were taken away by CPS not too
awful long ago.......his brother still has custody of his kids,
though- mostly because the mom is clean.
He knows better than this!!!!!

Re: Does a meth high last longer smoking a pipe or injecting?
have you
looked at his arm's lately? And yes look under sink or even
behind toilet or under towels. I used to hid my spoon from
myself and get mad when I could not find it. |
