I had done ketamine many times before this. I had gotten a 250mg sample for the low price of $2 which seemed unbeatable at the time. I split the bag in half and made a ~125mg line, which I snorted to determine the purity. This was definitely more pure than the last batch I had, I could tell. I can't recall how I felt from snorting it, but I was high & I realized quickly that I only absorbed about 45% of the dose. Which made me unhappy with the current state I was in, though it was the highest I had ever been at that point.
I decided then to order some syringes. I was going to inject the remainder. They came to me just a few days later. I mixed the ketamine in a bottle cap with some Dasani and waited for it to dissolve before sucking it into the syringe and pushing out all of the air. Then I stared at my arm for a solid 20 minutes while I was on the phone with my girlfriend, telling her I was too scared. Thankfully she is not a pussy like me, and encouraged me to do it but be safe. So, I tried... seventeen times, to find a vein. Every time I pulled back on the plunger, I saw nothing but air in the syringe & it hurt like a bitch. Eventually, I started pushing small amounts in just so I would get a little high.
After I had spent an entire day failing to inject into my arms, I decided to try a new approach. This one I had seen work before, and, I was determined. I placed the needle into a vein on my hand which, by gods grace, managed to draw blood. I hesitated for a moment before pushing the clear liquid in and pulling the syringe out. The small hole started to bleed a lot, which made me panic. I went to the bathroom to get a paper towel and cleaned up the blood. Before I could leave, though, I started nodding out while I was standing. I realized after a few moments that I was in fact almost going unconscious and not standing stably, so I decided to go lay down for a moment. At this point, my tinnitus became extremely loud
my tinnitus became extremely loud
I got up to get some water not long after that, and suddenly became much higher than I was a few moments before. Of course. I was standing, unable to move for several minutes. I was completely aware of my surroundings, yet my muscles refused to obey me. It was mostly because I was afraid that, if I let go of the stripper pole I was holding onto, I would lose my balance. So I stood still for several minutes until I felt like I was no longer falling. I was unable to think of anything at that time, and I didn't want to, quite frankly. I knew this feeling wouldnt last long & I had no choice but to enjoy it.
Most of the effects wore off after about 10 minutes and I felt sober after 30minutes. I then wanted to take more, but I didn't have any. Thankfully. I won't be injecting anything into my body for a long time, not until I have the proper training. I am not confident in my ability to find a vein at all, even after this experience.
