This question is mainly aimed at post-cocaine users. Ideally people who have 'been there done that', but anyone is free to answer with their experiences.

Do you feel that your cocaine use has improved a part of yourself or given an outlook on life that you feel personally enriched by? We all know the negative effects but I wondered if there were any happy endings to cocaine use, a little bit like how MDMA or psychedelics can leave you with a profound life-changing outlook on life/reality.

Do you feel cocaine has improved your confidence long-term or improved you in some other way?
 
I haven't experienced any long-term effects, either positive or negative, from past cocaine use. I have some good memories and stories of hanging out all night with friends (and strangers), but that's about it. It was never my drug of choice though so i never had any issues with addiction. I'm sure more people will chime in here and most of them will have negative anecdotes... or will be trying to rationalize their use with minor positive stories.

Yeah, I'm expecting a lot of "I'm on cocaine right now and it's GREAT!" type responses haha. I've never properly done cocaine other than a few lines here and there on top of other drugs but I used to abuse various amphetamines a lot and while I'm clean now I do feel that it raised my mind up to a get-up-and-do-things level for a good few years afterwards which really helped my productivity even when I wasn't using.
 
Absolutely not. I used it to escape from my feelings when heroin alone didn't work. Escapism is bad.
 
It's gotten me high plenty of time, so there's that. Now I'm kind of over shooting coke & getting bell-ringers, but I still want to do some occasional dablling sinffing blow & making cocaethylene.
 
ive done *a lot* of coke over the past 15 years and while I don't regret any of my drug use experiences I can say that cocaine has not provided enough enrichment to warrant my having done it...
 
Cocaine? Probably not, for the reasons states above. Meth? Yes. Which is ironic due to my extreme anxiety issues, but I realized if I can do it on Meth I can do it without Meth. Crystal cracked my shell right open (in a good way). What it has done for my nerves, brain, etc... that's up for debate. Still love it though. Proved I have some downers.

This is what cocaine did to me. I'm 19 years old and had my first drug experiences with 16-17. Street-Cocaine was one of the first drugs (right after speed) and sometimes I spent around 500€/month (with 17, nearly all my money) on cocaine. Cocaine itself never brought me forward but the experiences did. The first time I got pure cocaine (believe it or don't believe it - pure cocaine exists 8() I never snorted this shitty streetstuff again and I'd never again to deal with this bad cravings and comedowns (I'm only snorting coke or drinking coca).

I reflected about every time I was on cocaine and it really helped me to love myself as I am (that was much more difficult when I was younger). Today I take cocaine max. 1 time per month and never too much.

The paradox is: Cocaine (for sure not cocaine alone) helped me to love myself and the only reason I can control my cocaine usage is because I TRUELY love myself and I know I don't need it to be as great as I am. It never made me an egoistic idiot (don't know why, maybe it's my basic personality), it just helped me to love myself when I was tired about loving myself. Today I'm loving myself every moment and I'm loving the important people around me every moment.

Maybe I'll write a bit more next time if you want? Sorry for mistakes, my english isn't soooo good and I havn't so much time at the moment, just wanted to share this first thoughts with you :)
