I was an active member on /r/opiates for ~2 years and it is a great place that talks extensively about harm reduction the pifalls of being an addict and operating safety in a high-friction low reputation seedy underworld of drug culture. If you have never done heroin, it is dangerous as hell. Not just the drug, but the people you have to deal with to get it. Obviously, there were people on the subreddit tellng first time vicodin users to "bang that shit"[0] but there were people giving safe advice and counseling as well. It is a strange place where people post a bundle of heroin and some cocaine and title the post "my breakfast (:", but also when a long time member says that they quit, there are dozens of congratulatory posts. This community is the biggest thing I miss about reddit. I still try to go to tripsit IRC to chat with people even after being clean. [0]a slang term for IV injection of a substance.
