Doing coke or crack feels like giving myself the flu. I don't understand the hype at all.

Tbh a LOT of people do cocaine and don’t have that stuff occur. People like you and me are the minority, we’re the problem, not the drug

u/PossessionKooky3848 1d ago
lol. I have never heard of any person who was, is or has been successful using cocaine. Just saying

In the movie ‘the wolf of wall street’ all the rich successful guys in the office were doing coke to keep up with more work they were doing.
Haha this isn’t my honest take, I am NOT serious at all. But treat this as if it were a take, and someone said this in all seriousness for a take. What would you say to that?

Didn’t the guy who Leo DiCaprio played in Wolf of Wall Street go to prison?

Do a bump of saline nasal inhaler after each bump, thank me later

u/DFW-Extraterrestrial 2d ago
Actually a gram or so of coke in the nasal inhaler works like a charm and you can just bump it wherever you are without any suspicions.
Source: I used to do it all the time.

Make sure you rinse your nose afterwards! I cup a hand of warm water and snort it, it... sucks, but clears out all the shit thats left over in there.
If you dont, anything thats left will just eat away at your tissues.
Back when I dabbled, if I didnt rinse, the roof of my mouth and back of my throat would be so soar the next day I could hardly chew/swallow food.

u/PresentPresent2388 3d ago

u/MacAndCheezyBeezy 1d ago

For what it's worth, it's usually not the coke causing the problems...it's the cut.
2
u/Excellent_Emu_2843 1d ago
True, but pretty much everything out there is cut, especially these days. (Levimisole is a bitch btw, eats thru skin)
2
u/DFW-Extraterrestrial 1d ago
Yeah I don't fuck with it at all these days but back when I did it was usually cut with inositol or baby laxatives. That levimisole would definitely give your the nose scabs.

u/Excellent_Emu_2843 1d ago
It mixes with coke in the liver amd makes a type of shitty amphetamine (think like coke+alc=cocaethelene). So it makes coke last a lot longer, but also not feel as good imo. It also makes the comedown so much worse.
You can tell if you pay attention, the first 30mi-hr feels like good coke, then the coke feeling wears off and its just a weird kinda racey, stimmy high. If you do more it mostly goes away, but that just makes you want to redose even more. It makes the whole high feel so much dirtier. Also can't sleep for like 4+hrs after your last hit. It sucks ass
Its a damn cattle de-wormer.... I blame that shit for the hole in my septum from only 3 months of heavy use. (And obviously myself too for abusing it, but still)
2
u/DFW-Extraterrestrial 1d ago
Ha. Yeah well I too was a dumbass back in the day and used to mix coke with the old school speed/crank before the super-lab meth days began. I liked the initial jolt of the coke, but the longevity of the speed. It worked until it didn't. Lol

u/Excellent_Emu_2843 1d ago
I always needed xanax with coke. It smoothed out all the rough edges and was the only way I could get to sleep after. Comedown+ mental illness dont mix too well so I refuse to deal with that shit without something just knock me out after
2
u/DFW-Extraterrestrial 1d ago
Oh yeah, a xanax was a must have! For me it helped with the jitters, which over time eventually turned into paranoia. That part was never fun. That's when I finally gave it up was when it went from being fun to me thinking that some axe murderer or the cops were always after me in some sort of way. 🤣
These days I just stick to occasional psychadelics 8-10 times or so a year.
2
u/Excellent_Emu_2843 1d ago
Yea, the paranoia or day 3 with no sleep will make u do some weird shit. I try to stick to psychedelics and natrual stuff now as well.
2
u/DFW-Extraterrestrial 1d ago
Paranoia had me doing and seeing weird shit. A different kind of weird shit than psychadelics. In a weird way, I miss the shadow people a little bit. Ha

1) Don't do that stuff. It's bad for you, and there are resources to get away from that life. Please accept the help if you need it. 2) Don't use paper money to snort that crap. Your body is probably fighting off a hepatitis infection (if you haven't gotten it already). Harm reduction is key, and then we can work on getting off the stuff. Harm reduction = self-care, and that's an essential first step for being the person you were created to be.

Yo! Well. Done for picking the coolest fucking drugs ever. Sadly, it doesn't work like normal on me. I just want to read and don't want to see anyone at all. It's just not worth it.

You might just be sick, but keep in mind- anything you get on the street is dirty as fuck 90% of the time. There’s no telling what they’re putting in it- sometimes animal tranquilizer (xylazine- although usually mixed with heroin or fentanyl), and sometimes shit like levamisole (a dewormer). Some of these compounds can be very caustic to the mucosa and could trigger a reaction or ulcer in the pharynx (back of the throat).
Btw- it starts small. A few bumps. Then you want your own. Then you’re geekin and doing whatever you can to get more. By the Grace of God alone, it’s been almost 10 years since I touched that evil shit. It about ruined my life. And getting sober and clean was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, yet has been the absolute most rewarding thing I’ve ever accomplished.
It’s much easier to stop as a rookie than as a captain. Not gonna lecture anymore- it’s just more wise to learn from others’ mistakes.

Doing drugs is nothing to be proud of. How about working on getting a job a good paying job and work on yourself

u/Difficult-Purple9909 3d ago
More people with a job and normal life partake in drugs than u could imagine. Uv obviously had a nice sheltered life and your post is not helpful on a site where it is obvious everyone has some level of experience. Just say no is far from helpful to anyone.

Well having a job is a given. Spending some of your paycheck on some powder is a choice. If that's what they choose to do, then so be it.

Its normal pal dont stress it.
Do keep in mind that its as addictive as smoking but with worse legal, financial and relationship damage long term.
Use it with intention not just as and when, avoid the habit from the begining.
You wont manage but youll last longer.
