Anybody have difficulty breathing when using crack cocaine?

[prefrontal cortex]

I smoked a little bit to test what I bought. (who knows what they put in it anyway)... the piece was the size of a grain of salt on one of those big soft pretzels. There was a worse taste than I remember from past experiences. There was numbness on the tip of my tongue where the vapor was. Within a minute, I had a little difficulty breathing. I was feeling like if I didn't breathe manually, I wouldn't breathe at all. Has anybody experienced this problem?

I didn't do any more after that because I didn't like what it was doing to me.

PS - I'm 52, about 80 pounds overweight, I don't smoke cigarettes or use any tobacco, I don't drink alcohol because I have alcoholism.

Smoking from a can is the worst thing you can do. Use a pipe.

That was your body telling you something was wrong.

Crack is whack. I have no idea why people become addicted to this drug. I smoked it once in 88 & 91 and I got a jolt for about 5 minutes and it was gone.
