opium

ok so i've wanted to try opium for ever, and just incase i ever had the chance i wanna know what i'm doing... i'm going to research on my own, but i also want to hear these things from people here who know, like those who've done it, i've never done it.

1. what is the best method to do it, if it's something more then putting some on top of a bowl of weed or something that simple please explain somewhat in-depth

2. what is the 'average' dose one should take, keep in mind i never measure anything in weight so size refrences would be nice

3. what is a good general price? like we all know it varies by area, but pretty much everyone here (in america atleast) 10 a gram for good weed, what is just a good base price, and for how much (again i never measure anything, if possible size refrences)

1. Just take a piece and put it on top of a bowl filled with weed. Keep the flam directly on the opium to make sure it burns. Then, just smoke liek regular. You'll know it's hitting because it releases a really sweet smell, like incense. It tastes sweet, too.

2. A piece the size of a small peal- about 1/4" in diameter is plenty.

3. $10-$15 per gram is good. Due to the relative scarcity of opium, particularly in light of erdication efforts in Afghanistan, you may see higher prices. As far as eyeballing it, it's hard to say since the opium could come rolled up in a ball or mooshed out flat or something in between. Just go buy a cheap hand scale.

A word of caution about opium: IT IS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE. Opium is the precursor to heroin and I hope you know the addictive qualities of heroin. If not, watch trainspotting. Opium is what really screwed up thousands of people in China when Britain introduced it there solely to destabilize the country and make it more open to British trade and influence. It almost destroyed China. In light of its contemporary history, fuck China. Whoops, a rant!

lol i have addictive personality, but i even if i got 'addicted' i know how to tell myself no, and i wouldn't be able to afford a opium habbit to begin with, if i could even find it, i just wanted to know, so that if i ever came across the chance, i wouldn't have to tell the dude to hold on let me ask people or something...

everyone seems to make strong note of it's smell/taste, almost as if they were tasting/smelling heaven almost....

i heard the size of a match head is good

^^ Perfect.

You would have to smoke quite a bit of opium on a regular basis. Say, 2+ times a week for a month or two. But, it would be like a snowball effect, where you don't stick with a schedule of 2x/week every week for 8 weeks and then...BAM..you're addicted.

Instead, you would start out doing it 2x per week for a week or two, then 3-5 times a week, then every day, then multiple times per day because you are actively trying to keep the buzz going. That's how you get addicted. Same way as with any drug such as alcohol or tobacco.

The key thing about developing an addiction is that you don't realize you are becoming addicted until it's too late. I've seen that happen firsthand with both legal and illegal drugs, including myself (not with any opiates, thank God).

Having said all that, you'll have a fucking BLAST smoking weed and opium, OMFG. Just don't make opium part of your routine.

Opium is a blast.
And yes, the smell is very, very strong. I liked it at first, now it just seems a little too overwhelming. It will definitely knock you on your ass if sprinkled on top of a bowl.
happy toking.
