Is heroin a depresant stimulant or hallucinogen?

yes it its a depressant. Heroin is a natural opiate made from morphine (opiates dull pain). Morphine is extracted from the opium poppy. Like many drugs made from opium, including synthetic opioids (e.g. methadone) heroin is a very strong painkiller. 'Street' heroin sold as 'brown' is sometimes used by clubbers as a chill out after a big night out. Brown is still heroin but some people mistakenly think it's not as addictive. ----------- Methadone is synthetic, so its not made from opium. Morphine and codeine are extracted from opium, and many drugs are made from these or the other alkaloids in opium (Heroin, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, and oxycodone). More correctly, opium contains morphine which is a central nervous system depressant and an opiate. It causes respiratory depression, euphoria, sleepiness, and calmness. It also causes constipation, nausea, and itching. It is highly addictive and will make you tolerant and dependent.

How do you you make opium?

One does NOT "make" opium. Opium is poppy flower resin, usually dried and smoked. This is turned into other drugs like morphine and heroin. - I think the question meant how to extract it.First you need some poppies of the species papaver somniferum. Wait till these flower and then the petals drop off. There should then be some seed pods. It's best to now wait 2-3 weeks for these to mature.Extracting opium is illegal and therefore should not be done...but if one did wish to do it anyway then they would then score the pods, top to bottom, about 1mm deep. It would be best to do this in the evening. The next morning your poppies would have oozed out their latex (the opium), which would have dried, changing from an initial pale creamy gloop to darker, browner more solid little lumps. You would scrape these off with a knife and there would be your opium. This could be smoked (vaporised that is) raw, or it could be refined first.
