[Erowid Note: Because opiate use can lead to significant tolerance (requiring higher doses for the same effects), the dose used by a first time user is significantly smaller than that used by a regular user. It can be extremely dangerous to choose ones dose on the basis of the amount taken by someone else. Overdoses of opiates can be fatal.]
'USA 2'

Earlier today I met up with a friend of mine that I have known for about 7 years. He told me that he can get heroin in the West side of the city that we live in. I am addicted to Oxycontin, and it usually takes me two 80mg pills to get high if I sniffed them. So I was pretty excited but wasn't expecting anything new, because they are both opiates and close in strength.

Anyway as we arrived to this pot where you can buy the shit, I gave my friend $120, and he returned giving me 8 bags, that were wrapped in wax paper, and it was labeled 'USA 2' so I guess that is the brand name the dealer goes by. Next to me in the car, I seen my one friend's buddy shooting up a bag, it looked interested but I always told myself I wouldn't boot it in my vein.

So I estimated and sniffed 1 and a half bags, I got a pretty nice high similiar to oxy's, but the high did not last nearly as long, it wasnt anyhting special, the drip tasted horrible.

But one thing I will admit is, heroin is sooo much cheaper, I'm used to spending $90 on an oxy for a high, but with heroin I'm spending $25 for the same high.

All in all heroin is alright, but a very fucking nasty habit, as with all opiates.
