Cocaine Is there a difference in the high you get depending the duration you hold your hit in when smoking crack?

I’m curious because it seems to me that if I hold my hit for a real long time to where I blow no smoke out it seems like I don’t get as strong of a high from it like I do if I blow a cloud out. I’d think you would get higher from your lungs absorbing all the smoke. Just thought that was kind of weird.
 
I noticed that too when I use to do crack.

I’ve read somewhere (here maybe) that all active drug is absorbed after two seconds in the lungs. Not sure if that’s true.

I always thought it was strange how crack doesn’t hit you till you exhale
 
Takes 7-8 seconds to reach the brain, most people probably hold it in around that time (I try to make it around 5 -10, I read that all the dope is absorbed in 5 seconds but if you do not exahle, and I hale extra air, it seems to hit harder

Just read these responses. Making me want to smoke crack again lol.
 
depending on the way you inhale it, and what kind of tool you are using, my experience with other substances, was that a slow draw followed by holding it in long enough to get a little headspin from the lack of oxygen once you breathe again, depending on what you are taking, can either make it better or worse. timing matters with many things as does your current state of mind.
 
I've noticed that if I'm going to be sick, if I haven't used gor a while or I just put too much on the pipe I'll be sick. But this can take minutes to actually feel my stomach start to churn. So does that mean the high is getting better while that churning feeling intensifies? Don't know. But I've found the longer I hold the smoke in, the less I exhale and the less the buzz.

Oh man. I hate that crack nausea. I always get it if I haven't smoked for a while. Yes, it's that moment when I start to feel the churn, and it comes with a little bit of panic as well. I find that holding it down longer always intensifies the hit though.
 
Its known that when you exhale literly no matter what the amount the high is only effectuile on exhale, not on inhale and holding, its like a trigger when exhaling in announcing its time to get height and buzz

Also exhale through nostrils for more absorption of crack smoke high with using a smaller amount, it makes your crack hit higher longer and less running around for abother score
 
I will say even though i dont inject heroin/horse/smack dont bother trying it let alone iv it, as its a quickly an aggresively addicitive drug. And can be very very bad to the user, if your having a shit comedown from hcl or crack try a small amount of liquor or grit your teeth and bare it until craving wares off. I am not a fan of horse and have seen enough people in dire muck because of it , so much so i wont do it wether iv china white , snort brown, or smoke black tar its just a NO NO !! Be safe and my personal adivice is dont try it at all and look for safer alternitives and loads of H is fentanyl etc so its doubtfull youll get the real stuff and fent and nitz are shitty synthetics and are LETHAL even in small doses, 🙏 to you

Always try to eat something before you smoke. Doesn't matter how much you eat but I promise it will stop you feeling like your going to throw up after your pipe. Have a happy high
 
I'm 40 and have been doing gear and Crack since 15 years old. and I still love both.... Love having a pipe stick on a big one and feel great. I end up talking about everything and anything to anyone near me lol
my partner holds it in till he nearly passes out , but I think he's just killing his brain cells. anyone agree,
btw I do hold it in a good while but I know when my body and brain is saying enough. Just about to scrape my pipe out now actually 🤪
