Cocaine Crack Cocaine - Freebase Megathread

Well Ive smoked and snorted meth, and I never got a euphoric response either way, just a whole fuck load of energy. Ive never had anything burn my nose the way the crank I got did.
 
Hmmm - I have smoked and snorted both crack and meth. Crack is a tremendous wild powerful high that lasts a short time with a comedown that is hell. To me meth was super euphoric - - I felt super wonderful for hours with virtually no comedown. I guess we each react differently to different substances.

The comedown from crack was seriously the WORST comedown experience I had ever had in all my drug usage the first few times I used it. Now, I don't really get it that badly. I mean, I just felt like plan AWFUL, indescribably bad, helpless, ugh. I didn't like smoking it the first several times I did (I only did bc a friend was buying) because it just wasn't worth it. I haven't noticed that as bad since those first couple times.
 
I recently got some rocks that pre-melt perfectly fine and produce a great high but after almost every hit the pipe is totally clogged. The rock leaves behind a black chunk of what I would describe as ash. This is something new to me. I only purchase from one source and have only been smoking for about 5 months. I'm sure others have run across this before...any info you can give me?

Try not to trash me too bad if that's a ridiculous question! :)
 
^ Sounds like excess soda or other random inert substances. This happens to me sometimes when I've been jonesin for an hour and decided to buy a 2nd bag and I just cook it quickly so I can throw it in my pipe haha. When I take my time and do it right this doesn't happen, even with the same batch.
 
Only done crack under 15 times...

But man.. I thought it was no different than regular soft, powder cocaine.. It really is.


The only addiction issue I ever had was with Opiates.. I had and have done cocaine a bunch of times.. But it was only ever on special occasions with good friends.. Stretching from once every 6 months.. to TOPS once a month. But besides the immediate come-down ( If you do not have Benzo's or Opiates )
I never had a desire to do it the next day..

With Crack.. It felt that way the first time I did it..
But I remember after the second time... I dont know it was weird.. You just feel fucking godlike on it. Unstoppable. I can talk to ANYONE for hours.. Talk to any female no matter what. ( Not trying to toot my own horn.. But I can get some decent looking girls.. But there are still plenty of chicks I consider out of my league ) But yeah.. Even chicks I would normally consider out of my league.. or be intimidated by because they are so fucking hot.. I would have no issue at all macking on them.. And when they would be into me as well... I really felt godlike on that shit.

So after that feeling..
I just wanted more. Started doing it a lot.
I wasent used to that.


With Opiates... I can understand the addiction. It starts out as just getting high.. Then when you go overboard..
Your addiction really turns into just trying NOT TO BE SICK..

With Crack.. The addiction for me was... Chasing the high.

I gained control though... I still do it.. But maybe just once a month. But for awhile it was everyday.
Anyway.. yeah.. Im just telling you my personal story. Im not trying to tell anyone not to do it.. Because I really appreciated this thread when I was using it a lot.





The biggest reason I really fucking appreciated this thread... Atleast after learning how to do it the best way, to get the most out of the product.. After I finish my sack and im coming down... I wouldent constantly think about how much I possibly wasted haha.
After learning how to actually smoke it.. I would accept I got as high as I could, the best I could, and I would come to terms with the fact it was gone.





Its always great to have something to help with the comedown too..
But honestly.. If you can just man up and wait 30-40 minutes.. Its completely fucking gone.
That 30-40 minutes fucking sucks though.. I would always end up looking on the floor of my bedroom for crumbs..
Even though, obviously while I was smoking it, I was so fucking focused on not dropping any haha

Yeah pretty sure that means there is a bunch of filler in there... Or just too much of whatever they cooked it with.




I never did it myself because I did not want someone to find a spoon in my room and think I was banging dope...
But my buddy showed me how to fix that issue..
( If you ever get rock that leaves a bunch of shit on the Chore Boy )


-Get yourself a phat amount that you would pack into the pipe ( Get a big pack because the process will make the amount look smaller ) ...

-Put it in folded paper and crush it up.

-Place into the middle of a spoon

-Dip your finger into water.. and bring your finger over the spoon and let about 3-5 drops land on the product
Enough water to the point where you see a tiny bit sitting around the edge of the coke.

-Then put a lighter under the spoon.. And have the flame about 2 inches away from the spoon..

-You will see the coke that is probably spread apart in chunks at first.... You will see it start to form back together... Then it will start to simmer a little bit..

-Keep heating until all the white substance has formed back into one pile.. ( BUT DO NOT HEAT TO THE POINT OF EVAPORATING ALL WATER )

-Once it has all formed into one solid chunk in the middle of the spoon... Get a tissue and use the tip to absorb the rest of the water that is still around it.

After all that, it doesent take long at all to dry...
I mean this is if you want to go through all that shit.. But when your smoking rock, and ur pad is getting all chunky like that.. It has a lot of filler..
And a bad thing is.. When the pad is getting chunky..
All the crack that liquifies when the lighter hit it.. USUALLY IS ABSORBED INTO THE BRILLOW PAD... Which is a massive percent of what your smoking..


So when your screen/brillow pad is chunky solid.. all that shit is just running down the stem and ur losing a lot..
I used to think that shit was all just rez and I would get all excited.. Then I realized how much shit I was losing

---------------------------------------------------------


By the way.. I havent even done crack all that much.. That manual was just the one time I watched my buddy do it. I have no idea if its correct.
 
What do you guys think is best for the comedown?


I know the best thing is just to man the funk up and wait 30-40 minutes and the nightmare feelings with be completely gone..
But that time period really sucks. So I love having myself something to headshot and own the comedown.


I have used opiates for a regular powder cocaine comedown multiple times.
I felt that Oxycontin was the absolute best. But now they are completely AWOL and probably gone forever.
I also remember one time..
My 2 bestfriends and I had a all night session. Obtaining the product was ridiculous. My buddy was burned after someone grabbed our pictures of dead presidents and put gravel from a driveway in his hand. But he was loaded and did not want to let that deter his chances of having a great night.
So, FINALLY, around 1am. We were good after driving 45 minutes away.


We finished the sack around 5am and had NOTHING for a comedown. All 3 of us were laying on the my huge bed... Watching my TV that had Red Dead Redemption Multiplayer on without anyone playing. We sat there and watched my guy keep getting shot in the face, reviving, and shot in the face again.
We couldent move.



The buddy who got burned was just sitting there... Hating life. He reached into his wallet for no reason at all.. Just bored.
Felt a piece of paper, pulled it out.. and said 'HOLY FUCKING MOTHER OF GOD PIECE OF SHIT OH MY GOD."
Me and my other bud glanced over at him.. He was holding a prescription paper.
He completely forgot that he had a script for 120 Oxycodone 10MG / 325 in his pocket. We all jumped in my car and flew to the 24/7 walgreens drive through.
Obviously the pharmacist was a little suspicious. When she asked for his info and address.. I have never seen someone give all there info so fast and precise. There was no way she could deny him of scamming after that.



It was one of the most glorious moments in our lives. We each grabbed about 8-10 of them and started chomping away. ( All had been doing opiate pills for awhile ) It was the most amazing feeling ever when they kicked in. Anyone with a opiate habit will talk about, or atleast acknowledge, that when they FIRST STARTED taking percocets... Which for most people who first tried them, were eating perc 5's or 10's...
People always state how the high was so much better, so much warmer, so much fuzzier, and so much more euphoric for the first couple of months they were doing them recreationally.


After awhile... You dont get that feeling anymore.. Most likely do to the account of then doing opiates to be well.
So it was incredible.


The buddy with the unknown script actually had a tangled arttery in his brain. He would have something like Cluster Headaches...
So bad he would curl up in fetal position in pain. And was having a lot of seizures.. One of the most horrible experiences in my life was witnessing a couple of his seizures.. But yeah... He was getting loads of pain meds. But he really only cared about his OC scripts.. and had ran out days prior. The Perc 10 script must have been 2 weeks old so he forgot about it..

-----------------------------------------







ANYWAY.. I just love that story so I had to tell it.

Back to the question...

What do you think is best for a comedown?

I just aquired some .5 mgs of xanax. I never take so I dont have a big tolerance.. Whenever I usually take them ( Which is rare ) I have to break a .5 in half.. Even then I still get more tired than anything.. But I have taken benzos maybe once for a comedown and I forgot if it worked well or not...


But on Bluelight I have heard most people think they are the most perfect thing for cocaine/crack comedowns


What is your preference?
 
If your buddy was truly having cluster headaches, direct him to some psilocybin mushrooms, they will stop the pain of a cluster headache. Opiates and Coke(either form) ran my life for a while. Xanax(i know, its a benzo) was great for me for a long time between coke binges, I mean, sure, occasionally, you get naked and try to fight you friends and walk around your house eating a huge tomato sauce covered something, dropping it all over, both floors, but you dont remember any of it the next day so its all good. Xanax works great for comedowns. Its got to be one of the most effective benzos Ive ever tried.

Lol... Yeah xanax is one hell of a memory eraser... And if you were not asleep at the time where you had no memory of...
Your body was most likely on some semi-retarded auto-piloted version of yourself.

But yeah... as for xanax. I dont see how some people like to take it recreationally/ to have fun.
If I take xanax...
I either just get mellow, zoned out....
and if not that...
I am fucking knocked out for 14 hours straight. And when I wake up, I realize that I had been in the same sleeping position the entire time. Not even a inch of movement haha. Back to the subject though.. I did happen to use it for a comedown after this thread... And it worked fucking great...
Still a little feeling of being uncomfortable... Tingly stomach... But that went away quick too. I still prefer opiates for a comedown though... While xanax kind of just headshots and owns the comedown... Making it disappear...
Opiates make it go away, and make you feel awesome as well.

-------------



And on the subject of my buddy and his headaches...
I am not sure his headaches are considered 'Cluster Headaches'
But I do know about the mushroom therapy you mentioned. I think I saw a National Geographic short Documentary on it. A episode of that show called 'Taboo' I think.


But I might be wrong about his headaches..
He has a tangled arterry in his brain and something to do with that caused extreme gnarly fucking headaches.
But since the past year... He has had like 2-3 surgeries..
One of the surgeries they put a Cerebral Shunt in him... I think its basically a tube that will reduce swelling...
So he hasent had too many headaches since than... But still has had seizures.
Not sure tho.




Its really fucking scary though.
 
is it just me or does it seem like way more powder floats around nyc then crack?

Well it depends where you're at in the city. Some areas are more known to have crack and others have powder... Like Harlem compared to Manhattan...
 
Found this on some other site somewhere and it was a perfect description of my question. I believe it's technique that causes this but I would like to confirm that as well as learn how to correct it.

Any help is appreciated !



"-starts off smoking well enough, tastes fine and produces desired effect
-as time goes by it begins to fill stem with clear droplets after hit with little to no resin
-when resin does occur it's very sticky and produces a white and foul tasting smoke"
 
ive always had this idea, having done most drugs(street/rc) other than coke/crack/pcp/meth(tho done many amps and ket/methoxetamine), that crack is very similar to a stimulant nitrous rush. i dont know really, but most descriptions of crack mirror my times on n2o. sept obviously not a stimulant.

and the ringing... i chase the happy dmt land like pure euphoric ear ringing state you fall into when u close your eyes with a bit hit of n2o.

any comparison from someone who has done both many times?

edit: i also once got a horrid dysphoric effect from a non tryptamine non beta carb isolate of mimosa(could have been dissolved plastic for all i know, it was insoluble in everything it was originally dissolved in) 5mg of it gave a stupid strong headrush/pressure with ringing and this sick feeling like my skull was going to explode combined with the exact effect shown in the episode of southpark where mr mackey takes lsd. head floating, necktie tightening, head blowing up like a balloon. leads me to believe the thing about inner ear pressure.

There are similarities between crack and N20. Crack is more clear minded euphoria though, whereas N20 is more of a drunken dissociative euphoria. You don't get the insights on reality you get from nitrous with crack. I think crack is more euphoric at its best too. Aside from psychedelics, which have been given me some heavenly and beautiful trips, no other drug can compare to the coke/crack rush imo. However I havent done meth. I also hate crack/coke because of the short duration and prefer heroin even though I admit the first 2 minutges of being on crack is even better than heroin.
 
Can someone compare shooting coke to smoking crack? I have heard people say they get a bellringer from smoking crack. I know people shoot crack too but I am not interested in that really. Either ill shoot coke or smoke crack but I have been liking the rush coke gives when mixed wit h

I've slammed (relatively pure) cocaine three times and smoked freebase a bunch of times (usually also very high quality).

Crack hits you even faster than the IV (which makes sense) but when the shot does hit you, they're two very different drugs. The first time I took a (proper) hit off freebase I caught a bellringer, but since then it has only happened two times: each time, smoking a very big bowl of high quality rock with no tolerance, the first hit has had that effect - subsequent bigger hits never.

Smoking it begins and ends more rapidly, is more subtle, but is more fiendish in nature as preparing a re-dose takes about two seconds, compared to preparing a shot.
The biggest difference, though, for me, is that unless I'm catching one of those lucky crack pipe bellringers, the high from smoking it is like the high from insufflating HCl squeezed into half the duration (adjusting for a peak twice as high) in every way - more intense, more pleasurable, but also harsher to come down from.
The high from injecting cocaine does not feel like a stimulant - in the same way that a large dose of MDMA will maintain wakefulness, but not necessarily be stimulating otherwise (in fact without another stimulant, my preferred action on MDMA is usually lying down). Except miles better. IV cocaine is one of the drug experiences competing for my "Best feeling ever" title. It starts with the ringing in the ears, then spreads down your spine in an epidemic of local anesthesia. The extremities pulsate and throb with a prickly, numb euphoria. The sweat and the euphoria make it hard to think; you're literally trying to push your thoughts through a deep swamp of Feelgood. Trying to move results in decreased euphoria and prominent nausea, and in general, I felt a kind of paradoxical pleasure - I later figured that on their own, almost all of the effects would have been unpleasant, but the combination is strangely wonderful. Serious case of "you feel so good it almost feels bad"; it should feel bad, but simply doesn't.

People say injecting coke is short-lived, but smoking it is even more so - I'd say IV is closer to freebase than to insufflating HCl in duration, but a good 5 minutes longer than freebase.

I've never tried crack or methamphetamine. I've done plenty of d-amp and coke. I understand the differences in duration and general feel, but is crack typically considered more euphoric than methamphetamine? Is this why the crack "epidemic" in the 80s hit poorer neighborhoods harder than meth? Or was the crack epidemic just more sensationalized?

Opinion seems to be split with neither side holding a clear majority. I consider methamphetamine to be more euphoric than cocaine, usually, but I think there is a clearer distinction, at least for me: the methamphetamine push is more towards physical energy, focus and mental clarity, whereas the cocaine push is more towards euphoria, self-esteem, and the ego and pleasure in general. Cocaine feels more hedonistic in its nature and purpose as a drug, whereas methamphetamine is more functional. Cocaine is for having fun, meth for the night shift at the factory. Also in my experience an average dose of freebase is euphoric, whereas my normal dose of methamphetamine is not (but this is probably also due to ROAs, compare smoking v. eating, which is how I ingest 95% of my amphetamines - requires quite large doses for euphoria).

Methamphetamine IS clearly euphoric, though, more so with larger doses and faster routes of administration - with amphetamine sulphate the comparison is much clearer, as I don't consider dextroamphetamine to be euphoric in the least.

There's a lot of reasons for why the crack epidemic was what it was, and I would guess that it has more to do with sociopolitical issues and circumstances than anything inherent to the substances themselves. The meth 'epidemic' is very much raging now, but the media is slightly less jingoist as people these days won't believe anything you tell them about drugs (but are still fine with most things).

Crack lends itself to addiction and associated problems very well, compared to meth, for a couple of reasons though, which were already touched upon:

1. Duration - having to re-dose every 5-20 minutes leads to very repetitive, compulsive behavior, and when you're smoking crack, you don't have all that much time to do much else - you've gotta be at that pipe all the time, practically.
2. Duration - the long duration of meth carries more of a commitment (ie. work tomorrow, can't do meth - but I can have a hit of crack no problem) so people are more wary to begin with
3. Cost, combined with duration - it's expensive stuff, and when you're constantly dosing, you're gonna spend a lot more money than the tweaker who's still up 78 hours from when his stash ran out.
 
Excellent tutorial. Slow and low, and you'll have more smoke. Plus, frequently changing your chore will prevent future toxicity especially when you're like me, and throw a 20 piece on the pipe. A friend of mine had this (tempered?) glass from the back of his refrigerator, and it was HUGE. I don't remember the dimensions on it but it was like smoking a full rounded piece of celery.

I noticed that when I'm on benzos, suboxones, methadone, or soma's.. I tend to want to smoke crack more. When I'm doing heroin, I'm primarily just thinking about that. I'm currently on Suboxone, and I've wanted to smoke every goddamn day.

I do miss bell-ringers though. I remember my first one.. /dreams
 
This thread is potentially single handedly the worst possible thread I could have clicked on while 16 days sober from cocaine/freebase. My god I got such a craving right now, if I hadn't deleted all my dealers and everyone that had their number I'd be in a real pickle. Thankfully I have, and I am now going to go smoke the shit out of a cancer stick and take my mind off bell ringers and euphoric rushes.
 
Well yesterday was the first of the month and everybody was out smokin the crack because they'd gotten their wellfare checks (GAU/GAX here). Cops were everywhere. I smoked some with my friend down an alley in the belltown area of downtown seattle. i could taste the baking soda-the quality of product he had was pretty bad. I did get a buzz though.

not a bellringer sent from the crack gods but i definitely felt the effects.

:D Bwahahahahaha. Old post, but that just made me crack up (pun not intended) like a motherfucker. Great expression, hilarious mental picture. Thanks man. Now to find some paper towels to get all this juice off of... everything.

I've been smoking base since Saturday. It's gotta end soon... I'm just scared of how shitty it may be.
