Cocaine cant get the same high on crack anymore

Ive only used crack 3 times. My first time was the best - esp the first few hits gave me the best imaginable high/euphoria, pure bliss... I really did a heavy binge the first time and have used more modest amounts for the next 2 times around 3 weeks apart.

So - the problem is the last two times I haven't felt much high at all. It gets me all amped up, with racing heart and dry mouth and restlessness, wanting more - but without that kind of mental high that I got the first time. I dont know what the reason for that it - what do you guys think?

1. am i just getting tolerant to it? is it never the same after ur first time?

2. or am i getting some bad stuff? i m getting it from the same source and it has the same strange smell and all.

3. I wonder if I should take a bigger hit - so it it ll last shorter time but at least get a proper high. I use like a fourth of 20 dollars worth each time - im not sure what that comes to in terms of weight..

4. It could also be a problem with the way I use it [glass tube, with chore boy]. Should I put the flame to the piece or actually keep it under the tube? Do i just inhale deep and keep it in or breathe in and out slow?

5. Can I do anything to enhance the effects - the euphoria part?
 
1. taking a break that long in-between I'd assume it isn't tolerance but for a lot of people it is hard to achieve that first high again.

2. even tho Its the same source doesn't mean its same quality. maybe the powder they used wasn't as pure. all crack usually has the same smell.

3. you can try bigger hits. 5 dollars worth of crack isn't very much especially if it is not very potent.

4. as long as u melt it into the chore and then smoke from there it should be fine. I know people who melt it with direct flame and from underneath and it seems to work fine both ways. I recommend taking big hits and holding them in as long as possible.

5. not really besides smoking more.
 
You might be getting a tolerance to it but.. me and my buddy smoke the same way (glass tube and chore boy). when you put the rock in the tube before inhaling put a flame to the rock for a few seconds to melt it down. when you start to hit the tube and here the sizzle start inhlaing a slowly turn the tube back and fourth, this will help since crack melts and does not burn it should get u a fatter hit and a better high. hope this helped. good luck
 
tolerance only occurs as u are binging on crack at that time. i always get the high i love when i do the first hit of the day or night when i get it....the next day, same AMT gets me lifted like the first high ever taken, 1st hit always gets me ripped like the first time, after that its a chase, till the next day or week when u do it again
 
I agree with 'nvan', but if you want a decent smoke, buy some 'charlie'(coke) and wash it up yourself. It's really easy with bicarbonate of soda. Look on the net, you'll find loads of advice on how to do it. Their is another way but don't even consider it.
 
Yeah, try taking bigger hits, and hold it in until you literally can't anymore. I was pretty tolerant to powder cocaine and smoking crack a few times a week and i could still get good rushes smoking it out of a glass bowl, you should be able to get huge rushes out of a proper crack pipe.
 
Hi Homey, I do it that way but mixed with the brown (speedball/snowball), but I wouldn't tell anyone else to try it. It can kill or cause strokes. Powders okay but not rocks. Why do I do it, because I'm a fuckin idiot.
 
Get more money buy more crack and don't stop smoking until you feel good.
 
You're never going to get that first high again. That's why coke is a lame drug. I had a great time my first time but everytime after that it just got less worth it. And it isn't a tolerance thing either because i only used coke occasionally, like maybe once a month or less. Screw crack man, just find a different drug to do..
 
^^ I never got that first heroin high again either. I came close the few times after that, but never quite as amazing. :\
 
Well yeah a good rush with IV is always obtainable, but the first time i ever snorted dope was the best high i ever got from it, i would pick that high over a strong IV rush ANY day. (though a strong IV rush leading to that high... Oh man do i wish i could go back and IV instead that first time. (implications for how my addiction progressed and the possibility of overdose aside, of course. haha.)
 
Weird, the 1st blast of crack was great, i cant get that feeling back that day, if i smoke on another occasion, i still get that 'one hit wonder" all the other hits r a chase
 
Even if you buy from the same person it could be different every sack. Don't count yourself out if you've only done it 3 times, that's not enough to know that it isn't working.

When I first did it I didn't get "blown away" or all that, it was more like a buzz. As my smoking technique improved so did my highs, just keep trying.
 
crack smoker for a few days or 20yrs experience, ya still get that mind blowing rush, after that the rest is a chase. for example if i smoke today, ill get ear ringers, rush all that, rest of hits r just to not crave, but TOMORROW if i take the 1st hit, ill get that rush and massive ear ringer like it was the first time all over again, after that the other hits r a chase...for me i get that feeling the next day i smoke and take 1st hit
 
There are a few threads around here on this subject but I also agree that it probably is largely connected to holding your breath after lighting up. For me, I didnt get any sort of high at all from crack for several months- it just felt exactly the same as railing powder. I was seriously convinced that it was just smoke depriving oxygen to the brain haha. BUTTT I recently have experienced what Im guessing is the bellringer phenomenon- although I dont see how this could be considered a desireable experience. It feels like being on the verge of blacking out- ears start ringing, I get hot, clamy, nauseous, and everything fades away-> is this what people have felt? If so its really hit and miss for me- no punn intended ;) but yeah, holding it in, cuz I do find myself sometimes forgetting to exhale and often thats when i get that blackout sensation. I think Im probably too anxious and panicky before my first toke to really inhale properly at all since usually its cuz my nose is blocked and im trying not to binge eat. Also, not lighting the crack directly I think is helpful, cuz Ive dropped a shameful amount of crack into my lighters :o if this happens to you DONT try and take apart your lighter- especially a bbq lighter (ooops!)to salvage it! You know you are a crackhead when....I wonder how I havnt blown myself up yet
 
you know when you get that rush, your ears buzz and ring very hard, very nauseous, dizzy, numb mouth, pounding heart, sweating, sometimes thinking ur heart is gonna bust..thats the glamorous hit

That glamorous hit can turn into the not so glamorous heart attack if your heart cant handle it. 8o
 
I sometimes think that the guy who first introduced me to it gave me that first proper hit from some separate batch of pure crack and would then just give me some horrible cut stuff . The way ppl can get all sneaky and crack-centered when smoking .

The other thing is that first/second hit actually made me feel quite relaxed and euphoric, super good abt myself, nt a care in the world, sensual and sexual, to just lie down and talk, with a head rush . But since then, it's just makes me amped up, restless, dry mouth, some head rush - but nt that sensual relaxed euphoria again.

Also , I get a bit excited and amped up even before I've used any. Maybe I shd take a low dose benzo to relax myself before . Any thoughts?

Can any one post a pic of what might be a good amount to get an ear ringer - with the usual quality crack?
