How addictive is cocaine?

[thissongiscalled]

Coke isnt really even a good drug, in the sense that you dont feel that great after doing it. You just want to do more coke. I have had maybe 5-10 experiences with it and the last time i did i got the fiendy feeling I never had before and said fuck it, i will never like cocaine. I have only done it 1 other time since and dont see myself doing to many more times.

Idk how to word it but weed and mdma >>>>>>>>>>>> coke. Not worth even trying imo

I've only done it while I was drunk, and I didn't like the person it turned me into. It wasn't even me while I was on it.

All us BL'ers have drug issues that's why we're here.

Good on you for not trying the cocaine fire OP. I smoked a 20 of crack last night and it did nothing for me. The high last 4 minutes and without valium I would have had tin-foil-hat paranoia to boot. What a senseless drug. And yet I play with the fire? The motivation seem to be pure destruction.

Reminds me of a previous poster's mountain analogy. Our dads climbed real mountains for fun. Growing up in the burbs or urbs, we have drugs and aimless media instead of mountains and wars.

The key is to focus on something else - a hobby, friend, woman, school- so that even if you continue with "The Drugs", you have a target that mitigates the obsession with them. It can be a real life saver. Mine is hobbies and maintaining a powerful intellect. SPIRITUALITY

Crack/coke is an even sillier hard drug to fuck with than H, IMO. (although both are the kings of pleasure) It lasts less long, costs way more, and is brain damaging. How can you keep chasing a 2 minute high? Might as well chase a real dragon. {Crack addicts are like 12 year olds that jerk off 10 times a day even while their testicles rot by age 15. LOL}}

But overall, stay away from hard drugs, especially if you have already noticed a stronger-than-normal attachment to marijuana - the softest psychoactive drug. That's an indication you would become easily attached to even funner drugs - and ones without that psychedelic effect. Curiosity kills cats, LOL. And young kids like yourself. Choose the right path while you have the chance. It'll make us feel good, trust me. Not to mention yourself. It's all You...and Us... there is no "I".

I agree with the one above.

Drugs are drugs, they aren't all they're cracked up to be. You can't really say "yes, coke is addictive," or "no, you'll be fine." Everybody is different. But from my experiences, just say "no." Seriously.
And really, once coke isn't enuf are you really willing to move to crack, or meth to sustain your habit? I sure hope not.

Same here but my problem is that here in Colombia is cheap I have a good job

I've never really enjoyed coke all that much. First 20-30mins are fantastic, but it's all downhill from there: Anxiety, paranoia, cravings, restlessness.

For some weird reason I keep coming back for more. It's readily available usually (for free, never spent a dime on that crap) and the comedown can be shaken off with some pot, benzos and/or booze. With each time doing it it becomes more of an issue. I catch myself thinking about it, seeking situations where it'll be available, like my brain is telling me it wants more without realizing it'll just make me feel like total crap. Like that stuff is reprogramming my brain. God I hate coke. :D

And about the doing it once or twice... That's exactly how pretty much everyone starts off. I've heard soooo many people tell me they could never become addicted cause it makes them feel like shit or is just inferior to so many other drugs. Most of em end up with coke as their drug of choice for years after I hear that.

The stuff is nogood I'm telling you and no good will come off it. ;P I have a feeling you're gonna do it anyway when you're in a drunk state and are offered a line. Just keep in mind, that your brain is enjoying it a lot more than it might be telling you at first.

Needless to say advice would still go something like this: Don't do it, the first line will start that reprogramming process for sure.

The worst part is that when I don't take coke I spend more money on drinks and food and the hangover the next day is horrible but sometimes it just gets out of control Iand I spend three days in a row sniffing coke, about 7 grams and that costs less than 70 bucks. So it's freaking difficult

The good thing about cocaine I that it doesn't mess up your memory, it doesn't give you a hangover even if you drink ten margaritas and a couple of daiquiris, but once you start you won't stop until there is nothing left. When I do MDMA, extacy and those kings of drugs it's very fun but the next daysI feel I lost some IQ.
