Cocaine Cocaine with Depersonalization?

[kanyeknievel]

I did coke for the first time tonight, besides drinking, i was 4 weeks clean as of today. I did it just to try it, its alright, not too much of my thing. I prefer downers much better so I dont have to worry about addiction or keep doing it. My question is to people that have depersonalization, after doing it, i prob did 1/3 or so of a gram, i know the comedown will be shitty but ill sleep through it, but after the next day or so will the cocaine worsen the DP/DR feelings, make them better, or just not really do anything? That was the last time i plan on drinkning or doing drugs for a while now until this clears up, because i know that when i dont do drugs it gets better, or so it seems.

so anyone that had/has DP and did /does cocaine, tell me your experience

I usually get anxiety and depression, aphatic feelings and a terrible craving, not sure about getting depersonalizzation issues.
For what I've read in many medical sites, chronic use of cannabis can lead to it.

the cocaine is most likely just the trigger... not the underlying cause

Well no I have depersonalized, it was triggered from a bad weed trip i guess you could call it, i smoked 8 months alll day everyday and then i had a week n half break and smoked 3 bowls outta my bong in a min like i normally would, got so high and got DP from that. think it stems from anixety mostly. my question is how much does cocaine affect depersonalization if u have it already?

it fuckin sucks, if i wanna have fun and drugs, other than smoke cuz i cant enjoy it, i have to be depersonalized longer, and if i dont wanna have dp, i need to be clean and its not hard to stay clean, i was clean for a month before the coke yesterday, but still, its just an annoyance, i wanna drink and smoke and do whatever with people and ahve a good time.. i guess when school comes around ill be no drugs, alll work, etc.

Finally someone else who feels my pain, not that im glad you do though i wouldn't wish that on anyone. i originally got really bad depersonalization from being completely stoned every waking minute for a year strait, packed bong next to my bed ready for when i woke up, otherwise i wouldn't get up no matter what i had to do that day. I got bad derealization on top of that eventually, and after intense chronic depersonalization for 6 months strait i finally couldn't take it anymore especially since it was turning into mild psychosis by that point. I used heroin to stop smoking weed(oh, the ironing...even though it did save my life), and the depersonalization went away until i got to the point where heroin started causing it. I stopped smoking weed well over a year ago but to this day if i get too stoned i still just get horrible anxiety that sometimes leads to dp/dr. Heroin never made it come back as intensely so i can still do that and not get it. I feel like except for with weed (in my case anyway since i went so long my brain strongly associates pot with being insane..) it only happens if you aren't sober often enough. So definitely stick with being clean for a while and it will go away with time. When you go back to doing drugs, do what i do. Instead of abusing one drug, do any and all drug you have available that you enjoy doing and stop doing a drug for a while if you start to do it too often. I have been on a coke binge for a month or so and haven't had any dp or dr yet but im fiending harder than i did after binging on heroin for 8 months so today was my last day for a while.

Basically, i have no experience of DP/DR with coke, but i think anyone with a predisposition for it will get it from abusing any drug. From everything i have read on the subject i *think* its caused by excess levels of adrenaline in the bloodstream from drug related anxiety. I could be wrong but all the research i have done has lead me to that conclusion. Surprisingly, the only other person i know of (in person OR on bluelight) besides you is my girlfriend, so atleast we have eachother to reaffirm that we actually exist lol.

Stay clean and feel better man, you know you're real cause I know you're real!

Thats crazy you and your gf both had DP , should be a great relationship , know eachothers pains and everything. Im tired of this shit running my life, lately ive just been fuckn it and going on with my life, it getsbetter when im clean, but its just tough ya know?

The heroin thing I did too and oxy, for a WHILE, the problem is i do it too much, i dont REALISE i have the DP i dont even think of it, but its still there, because i know what it feels like. Basically it was an escape from the Dp/Dr for me, but overall made it worse and last longer. my therapist tells me staying clean is the best way, and when i was clean for 75 days i did feel like i was getting better, and with my klonopin n school coming up i think ill be good to go and smoke the good ol bud again in the near future.

I experienced extreme depersonalization on cocaine once. It was kind of unsettling, and I remember sitting still/kind of dissociated for like 10 minutes, after which everyone was asking if I was OK.

It was kind of weird, I should probably write a TR about it because of the vividness of the memory.

well you got in DURING the experience, and not after im guessing, the questions mainly for people that have it everyday all day. but i dont really notice any major affects in my DP, the only ones i can tell, which would be obvious, are lack of energy, and didnt sleept much and a little down, and all those effect DP in a bad way so its def NOT good for it but it wasnt terrible, just no sleeping, energy really make the dp stand out

all and every drug will affect your mind to some degree. now when you do this on a regular basis, it amplifies the effect. Your brain becomes dependent on drugs to get thru the day, to stimulate the release of neurotransmitters which make you happy, sad, angry. the natural drug is exercise: it too releases neurotransmitters to which one could get high off (I.E. runners high)
