how addictive is coke?

purple_cloud said:
I'm also more of a downer person, but I've got a good deal of experience with cocaine, I've been using it about 2-4 times a month lately. It's EXTREMELY FIENDISH, once you start doing it for the night, you will want to redose and redose again and again until it's all gone. However, I feel like after a night of heavy coke use, I have NO desire to touch it again for quite a while.

Honestly, even good coke is pretty overrated...yeah, feels good, feels great combined with booze (this is extremely dangerous, look up cocaethylene for more info) but it's definitely something I can take or leave. It's expensive, good coke is extremely rare where I live...but the addictiveness factor really depends and changes person-to-person. Best thing you can do is read around on here and erowid about it, and then once you're educated about it's effects and dangers, make your decision.

My thoughts EXACTLY. It's fiendish, and very addictive in the short term. As in, the night you do it. it's also a very greedy drug. I've seen people get in actual physical fights over whos line was bigger. But I never wake up feeling like I really really want to do it again that night.
 
i would say if you want to try coke, buy a small amount maybe a gram. expect to do it all in one night, and make sure you dont have access to more for the next few days. one gram wont get you addicted and iv never fiended the next day.
 
For me cocaine is only addictive when I have it. If its sitting there in front of me, I want to do line after line after line until I'm jittery as fuck and my face is numb. But if I don't have any money and can't get any blow, it doesn't really stress me out that much. I understand and realize that it's an "only when I have extra cash" thing.
 
if you have an addictive personality and it's good coke then it's VERY addictive, otherwise I'd say it just depends. I've used coke with many people who never ended up addicted to it, myself included. I personally think dexedrine is more addicting but that's only because I don't have access to good coke.

The few times I did have what felt like good coke it was extremely addicting, always wanted more, kinda inconvenient when I wanted to go out.

Basically though, YES, cocaine is very addicting. So are cookies, you may love coke or just kinda like it or hate it.

Every time you try a new drug you must realize that this drug could be the drug that turns your life upside down. Just don't do a lot at first, you'll come down fast too so be prepared to either do more or have something to crash with.
 
Anyone that says cocaine is not that addictive is kidding themselves.

Cocaine is one of the most addictive drugs on the streets. It has ruined millions of lives. Go talk to a crack head and then come back and say cocaine isn't addictive.
 
The best answer is just to stay away from Coke. If you're finding yourself listing Molly as one of your top 5 in "addictive potential", then it is safe to say you might have an addictive personality, as MDMA is not an addicting drug for most users.

But like many others have said, everyone is different. Your mileage may vary.

Voxide, I don't wanna derail this thread, but the point of BL is to ask questions and research your own inquiries. The OP asked us for advice, and we gave it...coke isn't a psychedelic, I don't think it's a matter of "if someone can handle it" or not...it's more of whether someone actually enjoys the high from it or not. We can talk about how each of us have individually handled it, and give advice based on our own experiences.

When I say "handle" I'm referring to being able to ignore fiending and not letting it control your entire night, or your life, for that matter. Of course we can all share our experiences, but this isn't a thread to convince him to do it just because some people can control it.

it is not in fact dumb to make certain assumptions based on other people's testimony, despite the fact that everybodys special (which is another way of saying nobody is special and that people are ESSENTIALLY the same)

It is when those assumptions could potentially cost you your life. This isn't a fucking new car, it's Cocaine. People die over it, and for it. You're asking how addictive blow is. It's right there in the title. Nobody here is going to talk you into doing it. If you need ask a forum if you should try Coke or not, then I think you're better off living the sober life. Not that there is anything wrong with that at all. All we're doing is sharing personal experiences. It's addictive for sure. There's no doubt about that. It's among the most addictive substances on this planet. Some can easily control it. Most cannot, at least when it's available. Judging by your little "Top 5" list, you will definitely fit into the former of the two. Or maybe you'll do it and you won't even like it. Who knows. I'm not trying to come off as hostile, but you really need to open your eyes and see how foolish your objective is.

Just do it if you're going to do it already. Fuck, man.

At a risk of being judged, here goes nothing.....

I am a cocaine addict....
I have stolen to feed my habit....
I have lied to get $$$ for drugs.....

It is more of a mental than physical addiction, but an addiction none the less.
And it can control you....
If you like it, then you are gong to do it till your $$ is gone.
No matter the quantity, you will probably want to finish it that night, then buy more.
I would go through 2-3 grams a night...ALONE!!! (Not the best quality, but you get the drift)
If your personality is addictive, then please be careful, it can ruin your life.
 
its like jerking off (masturbating) the first time you do it, its like whoa that was fun , i cant wait to do it again !!!

but in reality its like paying to jerk off <3
 
When you're on the fucking floor picking up any tiny piece of white dirt and trying to snort it cause you're crashing so hard, you let me know how addictive it is.

I definitely agree with this. The portion of my paycheck that goes towards fun isn't that that big, so I'm usually just buying weed and psychs. But if I come across an extra $50+, I'll usually buy some coke for the night to go along with whatever else I'm doing, and really don't think about it much until the next time I get extra money. But once I actually do buy it, I'm quick to start the bag and although I can save my shit to do it when I want throughout the night, there's no way that I'll have any left in the morning. if you can't afford it very often then it shouldn't be that big of a problem, but if you have money to blow, I'd be careful.
 
Cocaine is highly addictive - ask the people that shoot it or smoke it.

It has ruined lives, millions of them. Don't tell me it's just a little addictive.

It's addictiveness is on the level of morphine/heroin and methamphetamine, easily.

Not to mention some of the cuts they use actually add to the fiendishness/hangover.

Some of the most fiendy coke I did was cut, and the least was the purest IMO. It's strange but the hangover/comedown is much smoother on clean stuff, and is usually less fiendish IMO because when your done it's easier to go to sleep and forget about it and you don't feel as crappy as usual. Coke nowadays is nasty, nothing like the early 80's haha

Although crack is another story, I would rather do crack than coke, I don't find one worse than the other. With both you just have to know when to stop. Crack it's time to stop once $20 is gone :p

Although, AS WITH ALL DRUGS IT IS SUBJECTIVE TO THE USER. MANY PEOPLE CANNOT STOP THEMSELVES, SO IF YOU CANNOT STOP YOURSELF, DO NOT FUCK WITH COKE!!!

Sorry for caps. Just the most important part of my post and canNOT be overlooked :p
<3

Street drugs in general are crap which is just another reason drugs should be legal :(

Extremely high quality clean/pure street drugs are so damn rare. Most X pills, meth, coke, even weed still have contaminants

:) Thank you

I have seen it ruin lives....
But I have also seen people who can function while using it, that just isn't me.
It started off with a little to get me through work, and within a few months I was doing upwards of an 8ball a day, for days at a time. Stopping only when my credit cards were maxed out and I didn't have anything left to pawn. Then spend 3 or 4 days doing nothing but sleeping or eating until I would get a paycheck, or come up with some kind of con.
It will always be a part of me.
And if you start doing it, and you like it.....
Then it will always be a part of you, I hope you can handle it.
