Wakey! Wakey! It's 5:30 pm, time for another informational interlude on Street Smart, where we help addicts to stay alive long enough to make a lasting contribution to the multi billion dollar narcotics industry on which many of our jobs have become hooked. Today we will be sharing some advice for users of smack, crack, and jib, from the good people of the Vancouver Postal Health Authority. Safe injection demands clean hands. Use soap and water or alcohol and swabs. Don't just spit on them and rub them together. Restrict your injection site to the lower half of your body. If you favor the buttocks, get a friend to assist you; do not attempt a posterior injection or keyster booster alone, even with a mirror. Use sterile water in your cooking spoon, don't use mud puddle water. Filter your mixture through a piece of cotton or unscented tampon and dispose of the filter after use. Do not eat the used filter. For jib users: limit your ingredients to brand name, lemon scented cleaning compounds and avoid using Pine Sol. It is also of note that Clorox is not a pure bleach and may contain dangerous impurities.
Do not use alone. If no one around you shares your habit, try to get one of them addicted by inviting the person to participate in your session where they can keep an eye on you. Among safe activities for heroin users are sitting down on a chair with your head and rolling yourself up in a rug. Crack users may safely engage in wild interpretive dancing in an outdoor area clear of motor vehicle traffic. And users of jib are instructed to lie still, close their eyes, and count the brain cells jumping into a kiln, a count that should end at a much lower number than that with which it started.
