F is the new H

People in Seattle who would never touch heroin are trying fentanyl. What they don’t know is that it’s basically the same thing, only stronger. From Brendan Kiley at The Stranger.

Brian is a rock musician who moved to Seattle about a year ago from a small town in the South. "I was straight-edge for a long time growing up, and there wasn't much down there," he says. "Just small-town potheads and some guys doing meth in a shack somewhere." His most intense drug experiences involved beer and marijuana.

Within months of moving, he was in a popular underground band. John, also in the band and one of Brian's roommates, brought a lot of drugs into their place--pot, pills, cocaine.

"One night, we're hanging out and--typical John--he brings out this white powder and asks me if I want some," Brian remembers. "He doesn't tell me what it is at all. We're freebasing--he pours the powder on some foil, gives me the straw, and lights it up. And I'm like, 'This is fucking awesome!' I just felt so good, so light, just so relaxed. And I ask him: 'What is this?' 'Fentanyl.' 'Oh, what's that?' 'It's heroin.'"

Smoking anything off of tinfoil is generally a bad idea. You should always be aware of what you're ingesting. Just randomly smoking, snorting or ingesting stuff without knowing what the substance is; is a terrible idea. Educate yourself.

I know poeple who had used patches with out ever trying heroin.
In fact isnt there something about smoking heroin with tinfoil causes neurological problems only specific to heroin? Maybe Smoked fent is better in some sense.

The fact that lower schedule opioids are much more potent than heroin, which is Schedule 1, is convincing proof that the drugs on Schedule 1 are there for merely cultural reasons. No science is involved at all.
