I've used cocaine occasionally for years. I'll go on a 2 day and night binge, and then not touch it for 3-6 months. I'm 60 now, and too old for this mess, but I like it so much that I'm not willing to completely put it down. Wondering if anyone else has this experience.

I've recently tried to shoot coke again after almost a decade of abstinence. I know the stuff i got isn't as good as i bought it in bulk, but after the two experiences i am not wanting to repeat it again. First time it was way too weak and felt like a weak and short amphetamine high, the second dose left me with a panic attack as my heart was racing so bad and heavy and i wasn't even as high as i wanted to be. Definitely not a heavy bellringer, that i have to question if it was cut with lidocaine or some other local aesthetic. Still strange, when i am in acute opiate withdrawals i often times have dreams about using cocaine. It used to be by far the most euphoric drug i have abused. Think i am done with it for good.

Of course it was. I have no doubt your cocaine was cut with this at the very least. Just about all cocaine is these days, sadly- that's why the classic gum test is not at all reliable. I believe Levamisole is still pretty popular as well..?

Hi Contrail. I'm 49 and I've used cocaine off and on for 30+ years. I too enjoy it too much to say goodbye.
I was using daily up to a 1 1/2 years ago but since then I've managed to get my use down to once per month. Now I just grab 1/2 ball cook it up and when it's done it's done. Usually lasts 4 - 5 hours. I don't binge for days any more.
Personally, I don't care that some people might say I'm getting too old to use. It's my life and sometimes telling myself that I can use in x amount of days helps get me through some days. Especially if I'm feeling suicidal. As pathetic as it is the thought of using crack gets me through my worst depression days. On those days I'm grateful to have anything to grab onto until the depression lifts.

While I can't speculate on your usage at a particular age being "safe", I can speculate that clean cola is safer than a lot of product out there now. Take a read or at least the last pages of each (they are long)

OD is a forum really for harm reduction, its not really for socializing, aside from the one designated social thread.

I didn't know that thread existed. It's more detailed than my version, but if you follow the link in my signature (the acetone wash one), there's a short step by step version I've written a few yrs ago. Had I known that one existed I wouldn't have bothered though. Heh. I mention his way of filtering too, even though I use a different method for that.

Yeah, who would have ever thought that the generic wax coated paper plate tek after 3 acetone washes would get high honors.
