I use to do it often, now it's once a month . But when I do it I do a lot. 5-7 grams ( almost 2 8 balls) I am currently clean and I have it together. But even when I did it, I just felt relaxed and positive. Who can shed some light on this mess of mine.
 
Go easy, my brother. I'm 6'2", 220 and thought that doing too much blow was going to do me in more than a few times. I don't think size has much to do with it.
 
7 grams in a session? Calm it Pablo , or you'll end up flopping like a fish.
 
I was a daily coke/booze user for seven years and only hit 7g in a single session once in that time, either your stuff is cut to hell or you are doing way too much, have a care your body will thank you for it. Dangerous game at that amount, surprises me that you say you were relaxed and positive because I would have been looking out the window every three mins and hiding in the pantry if anyone was coming after that much.
 
If you felt relaxed and positive after 7 grams it means most of the "coke" were completely inactive cuts, there's no way you wouldn't feel like shit if it was actual coke mostly. Isn't the lethal dose like 4 grams for avg person?

Heard purity is sometimes as low as 10% for coke, that would explain it since 0.7g is not that big dose taken in span of many hours/days.
 
Thank you for feed back. How do I slow down. And the stuff I have I cut one time. It is strong. But when I start I just can't stop. How do you slow down??
 
call your sponsor? no seriously if you're finding it that hard to stop, then the only answer is to not start in the first place. you've got a cocaine addiction mate, pure and simple. and i know where you're coming from. while coke isn't my DOC and not even something i crave at all, if i DO happen to have a line, i know that im gonna want to keep coming back all fucking night. there have been nights where im simply couch-locked, face to the table all fucking night when all of my friends just wanted to bump-up before going out. that's just the nature of the drug. but if you're having such a problem with it that you'll sit down and do 7 grams of the shit, well than that is a HUGE habit. so again, just don't do that first line. and a CA meeting couldn't hurt either.
 
I used to well wrap, duck tape and then bury it away from the house in a bid to stop myself but often I would be digging it up again at 3am while cursing myself for it, in the end I just had to stop doing it, stop drinking alcohol as well. Kick the front door shut and become a recluse for fifteen years...
Over it now though, just the thought of sticking a line up my nose gives me lower back pains.I look back at those dark times and shudder.
 
Don't be mistaken in thinking that height and weight really have much at all to do with how much drugs one can handle... I doubt when you first started doing coke you were doing that much, unless it was some God awful stuff. Tolerance is a huge factor... that's how one can explain a 5'4 100lb girl who can shoot 2 grams of H or drink a 5th of whiskey... tolerance is a powerful thing and can skyrocket in anybody.

That being said, you were still doing a very large amount of cocaine.. but that's a warning of addiction.. not your psychical size justifying your intake. It really isn't a factor.
 
Go easy, my brother. I'm 6'2", 220 and thought that doing too much blow was going to do me in more than a few times. I don't think size has much to do with it.

^ this. Im the exact same size and im sure that how big or small you are has pretty much nothing to do with how much coke you can or can't do. Its all about tolerance.

I have seen 5'2 100lbs females put down more booze the me when i was a teen, and i was drinking 26 oz bottles of hard liqour lol.
 
Amount of blood is what should matter, not weight itself, a heavier person generally does have more blood but it's far from linear, eg 2x heavier person may only have 50% more blood so yeah, compared to tolerance weight isn't very important factor in the amount of drugs one can take. I also know an 18 year old boy who literally weighs 2 times less than me (I'm 110kg he's 55-60kg) and I'd have no chance if I were to drink the same amount of alcohol as he is dependant on alcohol and can drink 2 bottles of vodka easily...
 
if i bang more than a ball in one night I usually do 2 grams from 12 am til early that morning, and I start feeling tired until I'm too lazy to get another shot, then I bug out for a couple hours and start back up again the next day usually with maybe 2 hours sleep. point is after a couple g's I'm so run down I don't even have the energy to do more, and this is like 60% coke, if your doing a quarter how do you even keep your eyes open after the first 5 grams?
 
You know you hit your limit when your heart is racing and your chest hurts a little when you breathe either from cigarettes or the coke. Just go easy on it, get high and keep yourself at that level, no reason to get so fucked up your heart is racing and you get a panic attack which makes your heart rate increase, this is how cocaine overdoses happen.
 
Hey man I think your a perfect example of that AA/NA saying "1 is too many and 1000 is never enough". Don't use that first line and you should be okay, because it seems obvious that you are powerless over your consumption of cocaine.
 
Do you puke after 7 gs? I have taken a monster line and 20 min later I was dizzy as fuck and puking my brains out...
