ive been an occasional user of cocaine since the beginning of 2013. so about a year. and occasional meaning 1-2 times a month, or sometimes once evry couple months.

i know for most 1 gram might not be a lot, but its enough for my bf and i to split between each other and i rly only do key bumps cus they get me high enough. sometimes it can last me 2 days.

anyways, im kinda trippin out whether or not if ive done damage to my heart. im serious about not wanting to do it anymore cus its not worth it. the only reason why i usually do it is cus it tends to be around. also its kinda dumb to do drugs when ive been working out for the past couple months.

the last time i did it was 3 nights ago, we did it for two nights. and after that, my left arm started to tingle a little which has happened before whenever ive been high on mdma or coke, or just been anxious. now it's a little sore and when i went to the gym, my heart rate was faster than normal. and i find that when i drink coffee these days or do anything that's stimulates the heart, my heart rate goes up pretty fast.

will this go away in a couple days? do you think there might be a more srs problem or i might have anxiety disorder?
 
I really think your tripping yourself out with all the horror stories you've read on here I mean doing cocaine 20 or so times throughout the year won't be all that horrific on your body and mind it's certainly not good to keep up since addiction will set in and only get worse and worse as long as you keep doing it. The stories you hear about people going off the wall are the one who do an 8 ball a day for months or years on end or the bingers who go days and days with no sleep every time they get paid. I reccomed keeping active and away from coke you need to change your life around to stop using it or else the cravings will always screw you up. For instance if you do rails at home normally while watching TV then when you go home and watch TV then cravings will overwhelm you. If your boyfriend or friends do it every weekend then your not gonna get clean. Just find new relationships and activities that interest you and no a job isn't enough cause what will you want to do when you get home from working 8 hours and you have 80 bucks in your pocket? Cocaine is right. Idle hands are the devil's workshop. Remember that.
I think you will be fine with your arm and heart just try to telex and take deep breaths tell your self its all in your head mabye look up some meditation regiment online. I can't know for certain tho this isn't a hospital so if you really feel there's something wrong with you then see a doctor please don't use blue light as a diagnostic tool whenever you feel some things wrong. Good luck
 
^basically. Your heart is reeling a bit from the exertion you put it under these past couple days but its probably nothing to worry about.
 
Sweetie, I know how you're feeling because I get nervous ALL THE TIME about the drugs I've done in the past (that I don't do anymore) and whether or not they're going to cause me to have a heart attack. However, I know that statistically it's unlikely, because I'm relatively thin, young and female, and heart attacks tend to happen to people who are older, male, and overweight or obese. I DO get the feeling like I'm GOING to have a heart attack a lot of the time, but this is because I have an anxiety disorder, and anxiety attacks can feel EXACTLY like a heart attack...the pain in the arm, the racing heartbeat. All of it. I've even been convinced I needed to go to the hospital on more than one occasion, and my husband (the calm one, LOL) reminds me that it's just a panic attack and NOT likely to be a heart attack and that we should wait it out and it will go away. And you know what? It does. And I've done A LOT of speed drugs...I'm talking about MDMA well over 100 times, and cocaine occasionally for more than a decade. And yet I'm fine...just high-strung, LOL. I don't do speed drugs anymore because I'm an anxious person, and anxious people SHOULD NOT use speed drugs. For the sake of harm reduction, I'd like to suggest that 1) stay away from drugs BUT if you DO decide to have some fun, play around with CNS depressants (benzos, alcohol, opiates. NOT all at the same time for Lord's sake! These are just suggestions. They are calming rather than anxiety-producing.)

Be safe and keep up the exercising! Lord knows I wish I could go to a gym...Maybe one of these days my fucking back will be healed and I can go back on the elliptical again! :)
 
I agree with xtcgrrrl. My comnent is fueled by alcohol. But if you feel really shitty, go to the hospital. Im sorry for my lack of caring. Seriously, get checked out if you cannot handle it.

thanks gurl. i feel like i partly feel this way (the left arm, faster heartbeat) is cus im tripping myself out. and hopefully as another poster mentioned, i'm just reeling from a few days ago.
hope your back gets better! and yeah i think i should just avoid drugs all togehter or do them even less if im gonna be working out with heavy weights lol. dont wanna trip myself out thinking ive put to much strain on my body...
 
I had a bad panic attack, collapsed at work, and rushed to hospital. and the A&E Nurse told me, after ECG, that anxiety attacks, normally cause pain in your head, such as pains, you associate with a heart attack. But after some tests, i was told by my doctor, that my heart was better then average.

I learnt to accept, if you die, you die. Dont worry

Edit - Almost forgot, saw doctor after going to a and e, she knew that i was using cocaine, and prescribed me a couple of Valium and a mouth spray normally used for angina sufferers, since panic attacks can cause heart attacks with people with stressed hearts.
