Is cocaine addictive??? Der der der.

No I know it's addictive. But someone I know is planning to snort a line, maybe two this weekend, and they would like to know if you can get addicted to it just after doing it ONCE. Now, this friend of mine is not a crack baby. They don't have an addictive personality at all, and have never abused a substance. So, what do ya'll think?

 

Cocaine is NOT physically addictive. It is however highly psychologically addictive. So the situation varies from person to person. I would go with no, don't do coke. Trust me, been there, done that, ripped off that dealer, left town, etc.

Coke is evil shit. But then i wouldn't listen to the people that told me that when i started so I don't expect any less from your friend. If they must learn the lesson themselves then so be it, but I'm tellin you; Coke is Evil Fucking Shit. It grabs you by the spinal chord and says "Ahahahah! Your coming with me motherfucker!"

Savvy?

 

you will want to do coke again... itll be kinda like how in the back of your mind you are always thinkin about sex, cept itll be coke..

or coke and sex..

 

but i'll be able to control it right...i mean i'll have other things on my mind like school. i dunno maybe i'm not ready. sheesh.

 

er...i mean my friend

 

Not really. You will think you have it under control though. Right past the OD (I was just pissed off that night, right?) and then right up to the breaking into the dealers apartment and stealing several ounces of coke . . .

It all made perfect sense at the time . . .

 

Thought you were speaking for a friend.. ha, ha, ha.

From what I hear from people who just enjoy different highs, coke isn't even worth the addiction.

 

Damn. Why is coke so popular? There isn't a single positive post on this thread. It's interesting.

 

Well it's the same thing for everything I suppose. Cigarettes for an example. People know it's bad, by now, sometimes they don't care because they love the feeling of smoking (relaxing or whatever, that's what I was told). Then some people who love the feeling and hate that they are addicted and wish they could quit, but do it anyway. Then some people who just do it and hate every minute in kind of like a dirty desire type of thing. Then people who try to quit and end up getting back into it, feeling like unfaithful or some shit. I've seen all these kind of smokers I am making an example of.

Cocaine is taking over my other crowd of friends lives at the moment. Everybodys doing it where I am right now, at least in my age group, amongst the little druggie kids. But idk, addictive drugs are where I'm out. Not really worth giving up the ability to be fine with being sober in my opinion. Personally I do things like psychedelics to enjoy the experience, it can be pretty insightful, worth while in a way. Idk, I just look at some drugs as fun and the others as a fix. Why would you want to take an expensive money consuming drug to make yourself feel good every hour of the day? But I'm not here to lecture anybody, just maybe you can see some benefit to way I look at drugs.

But idk, it's usually about trust and respect amongst people. When a drug starts ruining those personal factors for yourself, people tend to kind of stray away from you. Take example the guy above who stole from his dealer and had to get the hell out of town. You wouldn't want that burden.

And who knows, I got a few friends who tried it like I said, and didn't see the need to do it again. But I mean, they 'wanted' too, but knew there would be problems with they went with that feeling so just gave up on it.

And to really answer your question, there's alot of drugs I assume that feel awesome but just totally fuck you up and make you addicted. Some people get trapped into it, peer pressure or not. Some people honestly just get themselves into it on purpose. Most people are mislead or have nothing else I'm sure. Idk, some drugs are different. Whatever your reason is for doing drugs, is making one your life acceptable to you? Just read some stories on erowid about heroin fiends to get a good example of the trashiest drugs in the scene.

Honestly it just seems like everybody runs into them thinking they are the biggest thing since sliced bread and won't get addicted. But then before they know it, months down the road there doing whatever they can to score a fix. And some people just are, some people keep their moderation strict and realize what will happen if they keep trying to fit in more and more. But that's hard, so try them assuming you aren't. I'm not sure how long the cocaine high lasts, but I heard that and crack is relatively short, so you'd probably wouldn't want to wait a week in between doses.

Some guy on this forum said (which is probably mostly true), while you keep getting lower and lower your brains telling you (one more day in the week won't hurt). Ofcourse you're probably not going to think in the most negative context, you're probably going to make some sort of positive trend to it inorder not to feel guilty about doing it more than you should.

But here I am explaining cocaine in a heroin context, lol. I assume it's the same for the most addictive substances anyway. I mean, the part from going to sort-of doing it to making it what you seek out totally from life itsself.

 

I suppose I'm kind of curious as to where my niche lies in recreational drug use. Stimulants, depressants, hallunicogens...do opiates have their own category? Should. I've not been able to experience hallucinogens yet, and it seems to be the most worthwhile.

I simply want to try cocaine to "cross it off the list" of drugs I have done. To be truly honest, I just want to be able to say "Yeah, I've done cocaine." And those reasons are the wrong reasons.

Hell, how could you have a right reason to do cocaine? Typically, I'm in favor of recreational drugs, especially when used to offer insight on the mind or the universe. Cocaine does not do these things. I'm not afraid to try it though, like I am with mushrooms and LSD.

We will see after today.

 

I don't see why you'd want that kind of reputation unless you want to fit in with other people who do "cocaine". From what I see though with cigs, if I hang out with cig smokers and they offer me a smoke, and I say no, they are usually proud and say good don't get into 'that shit, I want to quit myself'.

Yeah idk, maybe it's just my own opinion on drugs. I just regard stimulants and opiates as fixes, maybe they all aren't, but that's just how I feel. I know it's kind of bad and I'm only 16 and saying this but, damn, I was almost addicted to alcohol, first substance I tried. Then I tried acid, came up with all these weird questions with my alcohol use, and right on the spot I didn't like alcohol anymore. I don't even know what the hell I asked myself, but damn, it made me hate alcohol. I mean, I'll still drink at a party, but I was beginning to base my life around taking a shot before I went to do shit. What's even more depressing is that it was bacardi 151 I was drinking. Gross ass shit lmao.

I don't know any good reasons to try cocaine, but yeah, some people just like to say they've tried everything. But in the process of doing that, what if you fuck up and don't just want to try it, you want to DO it. Maybe one more time usually turns up to maybe every week then every day with the kids in my neighborhood.

Mushrooms and LSD, eh, just don't take a lot your first time if you want. From what I've read on this forum, you usually just take a little or so much the drug handles you so you can't and fuck yourself up with anxiety. If there was no ego-death involved I'm sure it'd just be melting figures. The ego-death is what makes everything weird, especially when you're only seeing big blobs around you lol. (Well, some acid is just weak, so walls breath a little bit and there's always like 3 rows of 3 spirals taking up my eye sight, and colors will come out of the wall in them spirals). But yeah, being nervous when you try it is what makes it a bad experience. Normally, you just laugh a lot, have a good time, etc. Come up with some crazy poetic shit that you forget 10 minutes later, nothing really wrong if you're doing it in a fun context, not worry. Like a guide says, do it without any worries or things to do that day. It's not really bad where you think about jumping out of windows and other BS propaganda. You could honestly control yourself to that level.

I do it without sitters, usually other people just ruin it for me, cause they don't know how to handle someone in a bad situation on a trip (which is usually caused by them in the first place, if they never guided before). I hate assertion, and having to go places on acid, makes my trip real bad and filled with anxiety.

 

Heh, for some reason I knew the whole cocaine thing for me was too amazing to be true. She "lost it" at work. Apparently, she had a bag of it in her pocket and it fell out. Or she accidentally threw it away. I always get so frustrated with people when they do things like that. If I have something of someone's, I keep it in one spot and don't mess with it. Then I'm great at returning it to them. I'm sitting here thinking, "HOW can someone make that mistake? HOW can someone be irresponsible." I know it's just a drug, but still. I've been thinking about it all week. I've been researching, preparing, etc. You know that feeling when plans fall through? It just sucks.


Perhaps this is a good thing, and I'm kind of relieved I won't be doing it, but I'm still ticked off at the person.

 

fuck it, wasnt meant to happen. Usually people dont say that about 2-D drugs like yay, but whatever. there is nothing hollywood about cocaine, its not glamorous, its not for the wealthy and you definitely dont feel better after having done it. just take a look at the people sitting next to you takin lines. Furthermore, look at the dealer. these are not the people ANYBODY should consort with, and they are that way because of the coke, no matter what they say. Final ruling: do it if someone puts it in front of you, never pay.

 

The person probably took it herself, all I find about people around here who do cocaine are that they are scumbags.

 

right.

 

Yup. My night's over. I learned when you deal with a scummier/trashier/unhealhier drug, you deal with people that are likewise. She claimed she finally found the cocaine, I went see her and she gave me this little bit of powder. Tasted like a crushed up vicodin pill. Went up my nose like one too.
And she told me all these crazy stories when she tried it the night beforehand.

So my desire to do cocaine is diminished. I didn't really get energetic. I felt a little weird, like objects were moving towards me and I laughed for no reason. And I felt really heavy. I dunno what it was but what a dumb day.

 

i tried coke once... did one line. it was fucking awesome, but as i was coming down (20 min later) i fuckign wanted another line!!!!!!! crazy shit. i stopped myself and realized how that crazy shit was taking hold of me.
havent even thought about doing it again to this day and never will. the stuff scares the shit out of me

 

cocaine gets boring awfully fast. one night i did a quarter ounce of it and my left arm hurt for a few days afterwards. what i think is funy is how coke heads and speed freaks will call each other's drug dumb or a waste of money. i think both of them are pretty pointless to do.

 

um yeh i think trying cocaine to 'cross it off your list' is actually a very good reason to try cocaine.

its really not hard to try a line and not get addicted, you know how? wait until someone offers it to you. just dont go wasting your money on that shit - its soooo expensive. if someone offers you a line, quickly take them up on it (it wont wait for you).

coke is good in a similar way to all stimulants. some people dont like it. i fuckin love it. but you know what? coke is shit because it only lasts about half an hour. theres heaps of shit about it on the forums just like theres shit about ice and other forms of meth - the people who are addicted to this shit are fucked. but it wont make you addicted. you have to give in. if you have any sense about you, you simply wont go buy any coke. but if its there to snort, i say try it. you will understand the world a lot better once you understand the sorts of feelings that people risk and lose their lives for.

 

Coke is very fun to do when you're partying.

Every single time I do coke, I'm strongly regretting it as I lay in bed, high as fuck, feeling my heart beating way too fast and my nostril burning.

Coke is a fucking rip off. $40-50 for like 10-15 lines, depending on the size(estimate...)

If you're not by yourself, you will almost definitely buy a second sack.

I wish I had never tried coke.

I also might do it tonight, hey!
