Im a 19 year old male who weighs aprox 160 pounds. I have done 0.5g of cocaine every two days for the past year. The only side effects i experience at the moment are the nose problems associated with cocaine use. I use high quality cocaine which im sure isnt pure but im sure isnt less than 75% pure. Rarely i take an oxycodone to help the comedown (very rarely). I smoke marijuana every day multiple times a day. I hardly every drink alcohol.

How great a risk am i of developing a seriouse problem?
 
I think sekio is referring to addiction.

There are plenty of possible health issues (some very serious) concerning long-term and frequent usage. Have a good search and educate yourself - there are lots of articles out there that go into a lot of depth, and a quick google search will give you some starting points. I feel that if you are taking a substance this frequently and for this long, you really should have looked into the associated risks well before now! Better late than never I guess, but get onto it.
 
well i was wondering if someone with long term cocaine useage experience can tell me what stage im at right now before i hit rock bottom
 
My Uncle did INSANE amounts of Cocaine and his 2nd favorite drug was heroin

10 years later he has Sclerosis of the Liver, Hepatitis C, His body is basically worn out (ever seen a guy vomit at random times just cuz it happens), His nose is FUCKED
He has schizophrenia (due to drug abuse, not it just randomly developing)
Anxiety as you might imagine

and... do you get the picture yet?
 
I did more than that daily for over 5 years. I am perfectly healthy. I have panic disorder so I have had numerous EKGS and had my heart and brain checked out because I had a TIA due to some insanely pure coke. If I were you I'd lay off the blow then you won't gain any health problems. Everyone is different.
 
I know of several older people that were heavy coke users back in the late 80's & early to mid 90's & most of the men have had some type of problem with their heart. My cousin which is one of them had stents put in his arteries when he was 45 yrs old & 3 years later, had another procedure. I asked him one day, does he have an idea of why he had to do this so young & he said, probably from all the partying he did on coke.

Ive only done coke a handful of times & never liked it, thank goodness. Imo, you should stop while you're young & havent done it for multiple years.
 
This isnt meant to be a flippant remark, but I'm amazed you can have a coke habit and only do about the same amount every other day for 2 years.

Most would have a daily and escalating habit so at least thats one thing in your favour
 
^^^^Yeah it does seem to show that you have a good level of self control.
Dude just try to cut it down...Half a gram every two days isn't too bad of a problem and I'm sure you could wean yourself down to just weekends and then just to recreational.
 
BDD isn't here to reassure you that your habit is alright. or to try to put you in check.

plus you already made this thread.

any questions as to why i am closing this, PM me.
