Is crack worth it?

It's not worth it.

It's always just once.. and then it leads to, "Oh, I can afford a few more hits." etc.. and eventually your out of cash.. fiending so bad your blood itches. It sucks. Bad. It's not worth it at all.

I can't lie.
The rush is intense. Very euphoric. Extremely intense. The after effect for a few was pretty good as well. But it's very short lived.. and the come down is fucking hell.

I'm telling you from expierence. I used to work in Florida. I was making mad money down there. Easily supported a grand a week crack habit.. Or more if I could afford it. Crack, Coke, and Xanax was pretty much a daily thing. Exstacy was thrown in the mix a few times as well.

But when your searching the floor.
Looking for hits that you 'thought' fell on the floor..
Thought you hid..
Trying to convince yourself and your buddy.

Scoping everywhere.. All these little white pieces, etc..
Trading GPS's, etc.. For crack.

It's bad. Being up at 5 am for work.. 60 hours a week, 6 days a week..
2,000 miles away from your home.. Working for 29 an hour.. building tanks. Sometimes not getting to sleep until 4:30 in the morning.. because the crack ran out at 2:15.. and your done searching.. can't sleep.
Or sometimes just not sleeping at all.. and smoking crack all night.. sum times at work..

It's not worth it.

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.

No to mention they're multiplying the risk of getting handcuffed. Five grams is a bare minimum for a meaningful session.

On a similar note, lack of cash, or reduced availability of a drug are not relevant to whether the high provided by a drug is en enjoyable one. Put it another way: if the nasty side of crack is not getting enough of it, surely it is an attractive drug, not a shitty one.

Of course, strictly speaking no illegal drug is "worth it" these days what with the ongoing war-on-drugs. No high, however rapturous, is worth doing time in jail for.

People can do things compulsively while enjoying them less than things that they do less compulsively.

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.

If we're not counting general problems that arise from IVing, then it can be proven that crack is harder on your body. Smoked freebase cocaine, when it's burnt turns into methylecgonidine, which is a more chronically toxic substance than any other released from the cocaine molecule (hard on lungs, heart, liver, to a greater degree), because it's made only by result of pyrolysis of the cocaine molecule; only smoking it will get it in your body, and not through any other route.

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

Well, that's you then. I don't know why it seems idiotic to you though, but I really don't care. I don't smoke crack often, but if I do, I'm going to make sure I enjoy it just like any other drug.

How many hits do you get out of your FAT dime sack if you don't mind me asking?
 
Retrospect I have a really hard time believing that you spent over 1000 dollars a week on rock. Thats an inordinate amount of rock...


Shadow people, I get about 8-10 decent rips from each sack. Then i usually rub the brillo pad down the downstem to get the remaining shit out and i get a really phat ass hit

I can easily believe that. I've known people to spend larger amounts to maintain a high heroin tolerance.

If you have about $60K/yr income, you can maintain such a habit easily. I mean $60K disposable, so probably a much higher income if you count in your own house and such, but if you, say, lived with your parents and made that much, it can be done.

One person I know who did it lived with his parents, did a stint in the Navy, college grade, made over $80K a year and since he was with his parents it all went to drugs. Another made $120K and lived in a small apartment shared with a roommate.
 
most people who are smoking crack rock and or doing heroin are not making more than 40k.

sorry.

I live in the city and have explored many wild neighborhoods in the boros. The majority of the insane-0 crack head motherfuckas are just copping dimes at a time, which last them for at least an hour.

Honestly... the thought of blowing through the equivalent of about 2 ounces of rock in a week is preposterous!!! I mean i guess it would be druggie ballin' and all but its just not possible!

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.

shit, i hear you man... I nearly died while taking a bath after a speedy roll... That was the only near-death experience i ever had with any drug. I remember going in the tub and blacking out for minutes, and then i found myself downstairs at the bottom of the stairs, 2 broken rips, severe internal bleeding, and a cracked arm. All that must have happened within an hour or so, i called the Ambulance right away and got fixed up. Somehow they assumed i had a cardiac arrest and blacked out, but came back unconscious and started walking or something, i don't remember anything besides taking the roll, deciding to take a bath and then i woke up totally crippled. My whole hallway , bathroom and staircase was totally wrecked, and my mirror smashed.

Scary as fuck, and painfull nonetheless8o
 
I find it hard to believe you get ten hits of crack for ten dollars, that's easily a half gram. For ten dollars? You're either a lucky guy or a liar..
 
The last project you must have seen was the diorama in your 8th grade science fair. ^ Get a life.

Easily half a gram? Nigga please.
 
crack is just "as worth it" as coke would be. the high is just shorter and more intense. it does make you fiend for more too. i mean no drug is "worth it".. but we do it anyways don't we?
 
>>i mean no drug is "worth it".. but we do it anyways don't we?>>

Many are. With careful use, many drugs' long-term and short-term benefits outweigh the cost.

>>it does make you fiend for more too.>>

I would guess that the briefer duration of crack makes the fiend factor more intense, making crack not as "worth it".

having never tried cocaine, let alone crack, im gonna go out on a limb and say crack isnt worth it. ive actually lost interest in most stimulants latley. if i wanna be up, i wanna be up for a long time - hence my once addiction to iv meth

That's gotta be the most myopic comment I've ever heard, and sadly it's repeated all the time by drug proponents.

Now if drugs were legal, sure, I'd agree. But they aren't. Anyone who says that using drugs in their life was better than if they had lived a drug-free life is only fooling themselves.
 
i smoked crack. as did several of my friends. casually. for a few years. without any negative reprecussions.

i was able to walk away after realizing it was no longer "fun". but i'm in the minority. it is fiendish. most people can't stop at a single hit. crack usually leads to "sessions". so beware.

i would advise purchasing powder and cooking your own. water pipes are best.

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 :)

It was more like I couldnt hear well and sounded like i was talking strange for a day or two. Was it fun?? Hell yeah.
