Do you, or do you know anyone who can use crack 'casually'?

i think when youre addicted to one drug, it's easier to use other drugs "casually". you just go back to your drug of choice when the other drug runs out and of course you'd rather spend your money on your drug of choice than the other drug.
 
Smoked it in roughly two dozen sessions over 25 years. Enjoyed the feeling (how can you not?), but come the next day, had no craving for it. Years would go by before I ever thought to find it again. Also, during a session, after about 10-15 hits, I'd usually have had enough. It astounded people I was with who would want to smoke every last molecule, but I would just get overloaded/saturated with coke at some point and stop enjoying it. I do take huge, mindblowing hits compared to most people, so maybe that was part of it.

Never enjoyed any crack session as much as a night of binge drinking alcohol, which offers such a wider range of experience and emotions to me. Its a drug-of-choice thing, like poster above said.

lol yea, when I read that I was nodding my head thinking ...oh cool, then I got to the bottom and see the thing about opiates being her DOC then I thought what a cheat! that doesn't count! . heh.

It's like having a chinese takeaway right at your door then saying you have no inclination for indian which is down the road :D. Something like that anyhow.

Thanks for that. The thing which may make my case a lil different is that I really love dopamine highs more than anything else (control/power freak here :)) so I know I will really love it however I also love other things in my life...girls, having a good flat and stuff like that.

I am wondering what would be the safest way to do an experiment. I think if I buy a gram (coke then cook myself) then give my phone to a friend for safekeeping beforehand. He lives like a 20 minutes walk from my house so at worst (which I'm doubting it would be that bad) if I was so irrational in the heat of my feinding I wanted to get my phone from him I'd prob have comedown fully by the time I got to his place and no longer been feinding.

It is so fucking expensive though so I am trying to find other alternatives which would be cheaper to scratch my dopamine itch. I think it could be doable though if I could have only like 200 mgs in a session. Is this an ok dose to 'get off' on? Someone told me in another thread that they use casually and buy $20 bucks worth and I think they said that is .2 of a G.. They said that they don;t wanna do anymore anyway since the effects diminish soon after that. How many hits would you get from .2? I don;t mind only being up less than an hour so long as I get a decent blast for that time or indeed spread my blasts out in between weed and drink. I read another guy who enjoyed spreading his doses out and indeed made it a personal challenge to see how long he could spread out a rock over the evening. So clearly these guys used it with some temperence. So that's pretty doable price wise if I were able to do it in that manner. They did so I don't see why I couldn't, "what one man can do so can another and all".

Speed and related drugs have the good high but the nightmarish comedowns are out of the question. I'm most interested by crack due to the short comedown and even then with coke i know it had almost zero bodyload- just paranoia and stuff which could be washed away with alcohol and weed. I am guessing this is cos coke is a natural substances whereas synthetic chemicals are more alien to the body and thus it has to work harder to get them out. I do know that, whereas speed cannot be broken down in the body and leaves in the same form as it went in- hence the meth piss drinkers, cocaine is broken down in the body.

So I wanna do one controlled experiment with it and I will try my best to keep my rational scientists hat on the whole time. I was thinking of doing tiny hits to just get a feel for it so I don't overwhelm myself. always a good idea nonetheless with any new drug. I also though if the hits were really tiny then it wouldn't be hitting me any stronger than normal coke which I have dealt with before so would be in somewhat familiar territory so to speak.
 
I am strange case - I guess I am borderline casual user maybe approaching the low end of addict. I have been smoking crack on average twice or sometimes 3 times a month for about 4 years now. I have not dipped into saving at all, missed work or anything like that . . . but then after I am away from it for 3 week or so I start craving and then get myself a couple of rocks and have a blast. And the comedown really sucks.
 
Well when I do it, while I'm still high I crave it for about a day. But if I can handle myself for 24-36 hours I'm fine. Been doing this for months. Plus, a codeine or 6 will help with the cravings when coming down.

Gl bro. Be smart.
 
I 1st smoked crack last november, and did it 2 more times after that with around a few weeks beetween each use.

Haven't had any since new years and don't feel the urge to either. I can buy a lot of crack if I wanted to because I can easily get my parents to give me money and there's a lot of stuff in their house that I can steal and sell. Don't believe the stuff about how if you try crack you'll ending up stealing and pawning all your possessions.

I have to admit though I was slightly scared before I tried it but now I don't feel like it's as scary a drug as people make it out to be. The urge to get more and do it more frequently isn't as strong as I thought it would be.
 
I agree with what earlier posters said. The only people I know who recreationally use crack/base are those who are junkys.

I didn't really get too bad of a comedown with crack the first few times, but sure enough it came out before too long. It was a similar story with cocaine (salt) years before.

I'm far from a scaremongerer, but I have to say that the stories of people stealing to get crack money are certainly not false. I know of everything from cars to steaks being stolen and traded for crack or money for crack. Many dealers will take anything that they view as a good deal instead of money just because the nature of regular crack users is so predictable that the dealers know they will steal to support the habit. In summary, don't fool yourself based on a limited number of experiences!
 
^^ No drug ever effected my personality so negatively or made me pawn/trade possessions like crack/IV cocaine did. Seriously when i was using heroin i would be sick as hell and wouldn't rob anyone or sell any of my/my families possessions. With crack/IV coke though... I never outright robbed anyone but would get like drug related ponze schemes going and shit. Paying people back for 'lost drugs' or buying the 'lost drugs' with other peoples money to give back to the previous person. Everyone did always end up getting paid back within a day or two though so i wasn't 'that' shitty of a person, but if I hadn't gotten sober who knows where I'd be today. I did sell everything i owned which sucks but whatever. The point is that while obviously nothing is true for everyone, crack is by far the most powerful drug in terms of changing who you are for worse.(in my opinion based on the drugs I've abused that is..).

I hate uppers, so doing crack was a big blah got me... didn't like the come down and the high was wonderful... but unsatisfying..

I only do opiates, i don't drink, don't smoke.. nothing, opiates is my thing, so nothing else can or will live up to doing oxys....

so I guess if you are not into uppers (as some posters have already said) you could smoke crack casually. I have done it 5+ times in my life... I only chased it once and hated how I felt so much that I refused to ever do it again (well cept for this one time... ahaha)

What did the guy who smoked casually say about his ability to keeping it casual? i.e. how he did it, his rationale etc.?

Believe it or not, he was very nonchalant about the whole thing. I had no idea he even smoked crack, and I had known him for quite a while. When I found out about it, I asked him, and he simply said, "Yeah, I like it..."

But, his real deal was opiates. He loved opiates. So, maybe "uppers" just weren't his thing. I'm the exact opposite. I love opiates, too, but I don't see myself becoming addicted to them anytime soon. But things like speed, amphetamines and cocaine... I'm all about it. I just can't not do it. Well, I can, but if any one of those things were in front of me now... mhm...
 
I can use crack casually. Even though the paparazzi and tabloids make me out to be some out of control whore fucking crack head, I am well within my right mind. I have been able to maintain a great career (maybe you have heard of me) as well as relationships. Crack only becomes a problem if you are weak minded and can't control your urges.

I mean, c'mon, I have a $23,000 a week habit and fine!

Crack use has always been recreational for me, and often resulting me empty my bank account for more. very regrettable afterwards.

crack is too expensive and short lasting for me to use too often.

I don't know many people from this board, I just heard about it via twitter from my publicist. I have run into Rick Ross before though. He is quite a character! He smells like a skunk though! His jewels are something to be envied.
 
I did crack a couple of times and wasn't all that impressed though I've always been terrible with smoked drugs. It's the reason I've never been into weed yet have tried just about everything else.
 
I'm a casual user with no desire to use heavy

I would consider myself to be a casual user.

I do crack about once a month or so, on a weekend night.

I don't feel the need to finish the entire amount that I get ($40 worth, however much that is) and can keep it in my house for weeks at a time without feeling the need to do any.

I don't crave it, don't usually think about it at all. Some weekends I'll think "should I do some?" and most times if it's been less than a month since I did it I'll decide not to.

I am not a regular user of any drugs.

I have never spent more than $40.00 per month on crack, so no danger of going broke.

For me it is something to do on occasion as a treat - like ice cream. I have ice cream about once a month as well. Don't want to get fat so don't eat it more frequently.

Don't want to become an addict so don't do crack more frequently.

Maybe I'm odd?
