Is crack worth it?

pre-addict?

hes speaking like a true addict.

did i even so much as entertain a fallacy anywhere, such as the notion that THC eats holes in your brain? (which it arguably can, but im not getting into that here)

crack fucks your shit up, and if youre going to deny that (while high on crack8)), well... theres nothing more i can say.

this situation pretty much speaks for itself.

one question: how old are you?
 
Ok, we get it - s1ck is against crack and Path. thought thinks it's swell and that he can handle it.

Howzabout y'all revisit this discussion in like 6 months?
 
im down for that, only because i KNOW im right.

...thank you personal experience 8)

It feels fuckin' great, but totally not worth it... if you think cocaine is too fiendish you ain't seen shit. Dry hitting the pipe for 30 minutes after it's spent "cause dude I know there's more in there that didn't get spent," and "yo, get down here and help me look for that rock I (didn't really but wish I had) dropped."


i used to smoke crack but now that i think about it, it never felt great.

explain to me how crack feels great? good shit gets u SO fucked off one hit that ur too stimulated to enjoy anything.

dont say i got bad rocks either hahahaha
 
Watch New Jack City, it will convince you Crack is bad shit man.

Yeah, you get to see chris rock playing a crackhead! fucking awesome (wasnt that his first movie or something?)

I dont feel like going back a page to quote someone who was comparing adderall to crack, and thats ridiculous. u cant even compare cocaine hcl to dexamph or methamph (not because of any "superiority", all personal taste, but because these drugs do different things and feel pretty different. They are all CNS stimulants that release dopamine. thats where the similarities end).

It seems to me that most people that like amphetamines do not like coke so much, and vice versa. I think its because dexamph for example... its main effect is the stimulation, with coke, you get stimulated, yes, but i think the main effect is the ego inflation and the good feelings that go along with that. amphetamines do this too, but not in the same way, and its a very different feeling.

I personally say... crack is whack. I mean, i think COCAINE HCL is a waste of time and money (while i do not share the same opinion about amph). If I had a line in front of me right this second, would i rail it? yes. But I'd rather it be ketamine, and im not gonna pay for coke. The one time I actually paid for coke (i did it on a good 2 dozen or so occassions, all free, cuz of rich cokehead friends), the first line felt nice, then as we kept doing more and more to keep it going, i dunno, just kinda lost its initial magic (and this is not MDMA magic im talking about here) and i could have a line twice the size of the first one that made me feel really good, and i'd still keep coked up and tweaky... but most of the pleasurable effects were gone... now, even with that in mind, our few grams had run out, and i had a really strong urge to spend a 100 on another bag, however after thinking it through and taking klonopin i was glad i didnt.

Now, this is coke done nasally. I have never smoked crack (am quite familiar with it though cuz I know people that do it, plus its just a different MoA and the same cocaine base, no hydrochloride salt). I can only imagine how mentally addictive crack would be. Coke had the power to seduce me into wanting more after even knowing i would not be getting much out of it. So im sure crack is no different, just stronger, in that aspect.

Also, I roll my eyes when I look at the title of the thread... (yes, dude! it is SO worth it!!!)

I guess this is where you just have to cite personal preferences. I thought it felt great, but then I'm a big fan of stims in general. The taste, a few seconds later the cloud, the rush, and the euphoria. But then after that like s1ck said, you aren't getting high, you're maintaining. And when I can't do that I (and many ppl I know) fiend like a motherfucker.
 
yeah i did some last night, it was good. one time i blew my eardrums out and that sucked, other than that after usage i dont find the fiend any worse than coke.
 
You can't blow your eardrums out from crack, you just get a minor case of Tetinitus 3 (sic) when you have a huge rush of dopamine in your head - which is why you hear that ringing sound.

Maybe you were being figurative? Please elaborate, sounds like that could be a neat story :)
 
Unless you've done meth which may prevent you from enjoying coke or crack, crack is probably the "best" among the illegal drugs. I mean it is the drug that has the highest high/downside ratio. For someone without coke tolerance crack gives as strong a rush as IV coke (with one-tenth the downside).

I'm not talking about the social stigma, the problems procuring the stuff once you're hooked. These are problems caused by the war-on-drugs, not by the drug itself.
 
Doing IV coke a lot when I was younger prevented me from enjoying meth. Kinda felt like I had done meth a hundred times already when I first did it.

For someone without coke tolerance crack gives as strong a rush as IV coke (with one-tenth the downside).

No way. Gotta completely disagree. The rush from smoking the fattest rock does not compare with a right and proper shot of IV coke. Not even close. That isn't to say that crack is weak, it's to say IV coke is ridiculously strong. Compared to IV Coke, IV heroin and IV Meth have a rush as strong as a couple jumping jacks.

As for the downside, I think crack has a much worse downside than IV Coke. The comedown seems to be much harsher, and the high seems to be shorter.

Also seems to be easier to control. Just doing one shot is alot easier, in my experience and opinion, than it is to do just one hit. I think it has to do with the fact that an IV shot of coke will definitely satisfy, whereas a hit of crack may not feel like it's exactly what you wanted, leaving you to try to get a higher level. It's not like you can just prep a needle up again as easily as you can just hit the stem again.

I did crack when I was younger (= without tolerance), and I did IV coke much later (= with tolerance). That's why our mileages not only vary, but are exactly the opposites of one another. Youth is probaly the strongest of all (combo) drugs!

When I inflicted myself a brain seizure IVing coke not so long ago the high was not even one-third of what I remember feeling smoking pinhead-size pieces of crack 15 years ago. Regarding the danger, I would recommend crack over IV coke any time because I never had any accident on crack and in my case crack proved self-limiting (through the onset of tolerance). Had I done IV coke instead of crack back then, I wonder whether I would still be alive today, honestly. I don't find one shot of IV coke to be satisfying. Anyway you can't compare a 24-hour crack session with one IV-coke shot in terms of "satisfaction". Or if you do you must admit that, as I argued, crack has a much higher profitability ratio in terms of enjoyment/pleasure.

Boom sucka I win >.>

If anything, it would mean IV Coke has a higher whatever-it-is (profitability? Sure you stopped doing crack lol) because one shot can leave you satisfied while one hit of crack can never be enough.

I mean I've done those sessions, I've shot up an 8-ball of high quality coke over a 3 hour period (most intense night of my life, heh, didnt end too well), so don't get me wrong, I know what it's like. Come to think of it, I don't see why you'd mention that, a 24-coke/crack session isn't exactly a great time... Intense, but not really that great...

The fact is, after my recent experience -- I seized when trying to do an 8-ball within 10 hours (not 3 hours) -- I no longer regard doing long redosing IV session as in any way safe. I'm not too afraid of endless crack session in that respect. Maybe I was lucky, I know seizures happen on crack, though from what I've read they do so much less than while mainlining. I can see your point about IV not making you want to go on and on like crack though. It's a cleaner rush with less chasing after the first hit. But I still maintain that if I had a son I'd much rather see him smoking crack for 3 years than IVing blow for 1 single year. After 3 years on crack he would be emaciated and burnt out but he would be alive and ready to quit and have a new life.
 
never done it but one of my friends who did a lot of crack, cocaine and heroin once told me "drugs just take your money". interpret that however you want.

Did you shoot, smoke, or sniff?

No, it was not safe at all. The night ended badly.

At the end of the binge I shot up an IV dose of cocaine while taking a hot shower to wash all the blood that was smeared all over my legs, arms, chest, and thighs from injecting everywhere on my body (amazing what veins you can find when coked the fuck out).

The hot shower had raised my heart rate, and combined with the coke shot, I entered a state of persistent tachychardia (160+ BPM) for over 8 hours.

I had to lay in bed and not move, wide awake, for 8 hours until my heart rate went down to about 110 BPM. Even moving the slightest bit would cause me to go into deep tunnel vision, and I had to crawl out of my shower to get into the bed.

It was one of the scariest experiences in my life, and I think I quit doing coke shortly after that actually.

Which is why I have been such a strong voice in the Bluelight community advising people not to take showers or baths under the influence of stimulants, and alot of people have made fun of me for it, which was extremely wrong of them to do.

Even the slightest use of stimulants in a hot shower can cause life-threatening complications. When I had shot up it was an extremely minor dose and it was a good 30 or 40 minutes after my last shot.

There is a reason they say old people, preggers, young kids, and in general, anyone with a heart condition or weak heart should not go into public hot tubs.
 
Crack is not worth smoking at all unless you buy a large amount
at one time. People who spend all day buying a 50 rock after 50 rock are f-cking ignorant. You really do spend more time on the phone and waiting then you do getting high. However if you buy a large amount of crack at one time, lets say three or four grams, you'll be able to sit down and relax while you smoke giving you the chance to enjoy it so much more.

The most memorable nights of my life have been buying a quarter of rock and doing nothing but taking blast after blast for six or so hours with my girlfriend. The feeling really is f-cking amazing... People who buy in small amounts never get to enjoy a real crack high.

With that being said, I would never suggest that anyone smoke crack if they haven't already.

Trust me, you'll be fine without it.
 
Dude thats just idiotic. ^

I don't think i need to puff rock for six or so hours at a time to enjoy my real crack high from my fat dime sack from uptown
