Hi guys,

How long after cocaine use does the brain return to normal, and would using another drug be 'usefull' so to speak. (The levels of dopamine, serotonine, noradrenaline etc. being back to normal levels).

This is actually for an in depth study on the effects of several drugs/combination of drugs on the brain xD Go figure :P

This is with the assumption a person has done a normal amount of cocaine (say half a gram) in 1 night/day.

Thanks !
 
I've read 3 days for Dopamine levels to return to normal and 2 weeks for Serotonin. Not sure about ND.

I did cocaine on Thursday night and I can safely say that today (Sunday), I feel 99% normal. The small dopamine cravings I got all weekend weren't even a hard battle and I did just over a gram. The weed and Valium helped that. But definitely Friday and Saturday I felt very de-realized and hazy.

For MDxx drugs I don't feel like myself for a couple weeks. Mood swings, flashbacks and lethargy linger for quite some time.
