Cocaine - Experienced - "GIVE ME MORE!" - Cocaine Overdose? Horrible experience.

I've had too many similar nights on amphetamines, it is just not worth it. When I would come down, I just prayed to god that I could somehow not be alive.

And that psychosis.. fiending is one of the worst feelings in the world for anyone with a sense of pride or self-respect.
 
I don't mean to sound controversial, but...

I don't think coke is as bad as this thread reads....

From personal experience I have had a couple of nights like the aforementioned (although not as severe by the sound of it), I think this happens when you use too much and have little else to do (i.e sat indoors with friends doing more and more coke......). I definitely believe cocaine can have very negative side effects (horrible insomnia, depression, freaking for more, aggression, horrible somatic sensations etc) but these in no way seem inevitable, and I believe if used more sparingly in the right setting and time span it can be an ok (albeit stupidly expensive per good feeling) and 'fun' drug.

I am not dismissing cocaines powerfully addictive properties. However I used coke regularly (at least every weekend) for about a year. I then decided to stop, as I was 'blowing' far too much money on it. So I stopped, did not find it difficult. For about several years I used cocaine extremely occasionally and to a minimal extent (maybe half gram/a couple lines every month to maybe 5 months). About 6 months ago I started using it regularly (slightly negatively) taking it during weeks and weekdays etc. After christmas I decided to bump that on the nose/head, and now have decided half a gram every 2 weeks maximum, and it all has to be finished by saturday night. I find this to be an enjoyable level of use, and do not fiend on those nights I do it, I have a few drinks, go out and enjoy myself, not letting coke turn it all dark.

Ok - so I know I have given my life story. I geuss I am probably addicted to coke in a sense, but I find this manageable. Half a gram every 2 weeks doesn't seem to result in any comedown or fiending. I enjoy it when I do it (albeit in an egotistical way)
Now I am aware some people have more addictive personalities and maybe a larger cash flow, but I am horribly addicted to ciggarettes and fail miserably when trying to give them up.......................

Although I wonder why I am sticking up for this egocentric expensive extremely watered down drug, I do think that negativity of it can stem from the way it is used. I think that this all started from extracting cocaine HCL from the coca leaves - BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!

just my 4 and a half cents
 
How can that be when you are releasing massive amounts of dopamine? There is a balance and whatever goes flying up will come crashing down..

I've had easy comedowns as well but dopamine depletion has theoretical effects regardless of how it was put together.
 
I agree with Diggity in that it would seem some cuts they use in coke cause a higher 'strung' out feeling, and worse somatic side effects immediately after taking it (that night). Hence some coke seems to give a worse comedown. Check the cocaine purification thread which sheds a little light on the exact reasons for this. Therefore I feel that the horrible side effects like the ones mentioned above may not always be to do with cocaines dopaminergic quality but that of the cuts psychoactive effects.


However, without contradicting myself, I do believe the primary reason for a really rough comedown off coke is doing too much, it sounds obvious, but clearly some people put 2 and 2 together, and get 5 and a half grams.
Under half a gram of coke taken throughout a night (for me personally) results in no geeking, fiending or freaking, just fun,,,,,,,,, whats the point of doing loads of coke when you know your going to feel like shit, and be routing around for those white specks that merely turn out to be flaked plaster from your decaying neglected ceiling. I am not dismissing cocaine addiction, but it can be used responsibly, and its no one elses fault if you do too much and feel like shit without a soul........

Well a half gram is about 2 minutes worth of fun for me since a half gram is a decent line for me... I was focasing on quitting, and still am, but the last two nights people have paid for my coke :( I have done at least a half gram every night for the past 1 1/2 - 2 weeks now (and haven't spent that much money luckily). However, to get to the point where I like it, I need a half gram, split it in two lines, one up each nostral. Chill for a bit, maybe like an hour or two, then do the same thing. My comedowns have not been as bad, nothing close at all really, but I still want to stop using. Coke sucks, it's like not even really fun, at all...
 
^ur lucky u don't IV, i have been tryin to quit to but i make the effort to quit and then people start wantin me to get them coke and the only way i would get it for them is is they split it wit me, i got 3 grams for free in 3 weeks. I don't even like the high anymore cause i crash, it truly is absolutly horrible, but i love hittin a vein and seein that blood in the needle....it sounds fucked up but i <3 it
 
I didn't mean to seem rude, I didn't realise your usage amounts; I thought for sparse users there was no need to feel so shitty doin a bit of coke..... good luck for your giving up, if I ever give up the fags (not metaphorically) will let you know.........
 
dude. if you honestly can say 1/2 gram is about a decent line for you, you are absolutely getting the worst cocaine i've ever heard of. if you can hit a line that large and not be totally overboard or on the floor seizing out - your dealer is selling you shit.

even .25 lines is ridiculous. maybe i'm spoiled from being in florida, but that is just terrible. i'm consistently baffled by the size people say lines should be on bluelight. Even in another thread, folks said .2 lines is about right. That, too, seems crazy. Do people actually break grams up into only 5 lines?!... I'll say it again, it must be terrible stuff.
 
Yeah, true that. I've had quite pure (though not 100%) coke before, and amazingly small lines, almost bumps, really, would get me better and cleaner than any size line ever did with the crappy ass shit my friend used to get. This guy I sort of knew would buy an 8-ball and break out a line, literally 18 inches long and about a centimeter wide. It was fucking MASSIVE! He did it all the time, and the coke was aboslute shit, but that was always his first line of the night, and he loved to show how big his balls were with it. It's a good thing he never got good coke... he'd be long dead.
 
I would agree with the above; doin large lines seems a bit of a waste and unnecessary to me. Half a gram for me is a good 5 lines in UK, I don't feel the need to try and exagerrate the size of my balls
 
The most a half gram will ever be for me is 4 lines, usually 2. I didn't mean one line, I meant 2 large lines one up each nostral, sorry. Usually after doing this though I would be pretty messed up for a while.
 
too much low-grade coke= boo
try crushing an 8ball to yourself in one night

still, shitty coke man.... that's 8 lines per gram.. that's fucking ridiculous. You really need to see what real coke is.
 
my friend uses coke on very very occasionally, like one or twice a year. However eh still experiences comedowns. Are these comedown effects totally dependent on how much you take alone? Or are they also affected by frequency of use or other factors?
