Was at a bigggg party thing and I took some cocaine.. batch 1 nothing... little irritation on the throat but nothing. Took some of someone's else's (batch 2)and hmmm yeah can feel it a lot more..not fleeing but something there.

2 other people took batch 2 and were sick in the car park but felt better quickly..

Some people who've done it for years saying swear by batch 1 saying ooo mate...this is really pure this stuff...am like no I prefer batch 2.

I had taken yet another batch 2days before but really struggling to feel anything much these days...my dopamine reuptakers must be totally reset.
 
Lack of familiarity with pure cocaine by all involved parties leading to disagreement due to the lack of a reliable standard to judge the quality.

I think people knowing good cocaine is not the norm. Things are stepped on.

I’ve had some great cocaine and I’ve had some really good cocaine and I’ve had a lot of bad cocaine.

Cocaine should feel like sniffing nothing, becoming comfortably numb after about five minutes, maybe not even noticing, and there should be a considerable lift to one’s mood and mental state, with a shortlived boost to tiredness that doesn’t interfere with sleep, but alternatively, addiction to which can produce profound anxiety about using more cocaine and the effects of that anxiety are immediately ameliorated by taking more cocaine.

Cocaine, super fun, and no fun at all.

Very accurate description of high quality blow. I’ve had the pleasure of finding a connect with very good quality(ranging between 80-90%, sometimes as low as 75 but mid 80s I’d say on average) and its a completely different experience than what I was accustomed to for years. Many, many years ago I got a taste of decent coke(likely 60% or so) and chased that for a long time but could only ever find absolute garbage ever since. My best guess is 99% of local sources around me have at best blow that contains 30% cocaine, but realistically that number is probably being very generous. I stopped acquiring my own and would only do it if offered for free, and still didn’t find much enjoyment in it even after having countless beers/shots. Pretty sure majority contained meth, or at least some type of amphetamine or possibly an RC stim as a few lines would have me up all night which I know isn’t an effect real coke has on me(I know some people are prone to sleeplessness even with product that’s only active substance is cocaine)

Real, good coke won’t, or hardly, have a drip and a taste and possibly very faint smell if the solvent wasn’t completely dried when packaged. It should never burn or cause even mild discomfort unless your nose was already irritated to begin with. Immediate and extreme numbing is not a quality cocaine has and is indicative of a cut(most likely benzocaine), real quality coke is very lightly numbing and takes a minute to take effect. The high from it is very clean, short lived and after repeated use(especially if you become addicted or binge for multiple days) pretty much no longer existent. Euphoria wise, anyway. Even now I still get a mild mood lift and wakefulness, but much less than if I were to stop for a period of time but the initial ‘rush’ of feeling great hasn’t occurred in quite some time. But once you’re addicted to coke, all you can think about is doing more coke - even if you’re actively on other substances that actually work better as a stimulant than coke does, your mind/dopamine receptors essentially still scream COCAINE, NOW!!! lol. But I found with super shitty coke that wasn’t the case - I’d spend a night doing lines that at best caused discomfort, usually clogged me up like a motherfucker and caused issues the following day, doing the complete opposite of fiending. It would make me swear off of it for quite a while. Access to quality and decently affordable blow turned out not to be a good thing in my case, because while I try to keep use to a minimum I have absolute shit self control and 9/10 times end up with a decent quantity(because it’s cheaper that way) that I swear to myself I’ll make last for x amount of time, usually a week-month depending, and no matter what the entire stash is almost always gone in 3-4 days max. If it’s an actual large amount it may last for close to 2 weeks at best, but it’s an amount that should definitely last for over a month for a ‘regular’ user - probably a year or lifetime for somebody with good self control and only uses on occasion.

I don't do very big lines cause I'm scared to go bigger. . maybe that's why it's not having much effect

If you’re doing tiny, baby sized lines of shitty coke then yeah you’re not really going to get much out of it lol. Most likely nothing out of it if it’s shitty enough, which unless you have good connections almost all blow found on the street is stepped on 20x over. 20x could be exaggerating, but could also be very realistic. As it makes its way down the supply chain each set of hands it passes through, typically, adds some sort of buffering agent to add weight for profit. So(not necessarily you specifically but more a general statement) if you only ‘know a guy who knows a guy’ as your source of getting coke, that’s almost certainly yet another person putting who knows what into it to make profit - even if the profit is just 1-2g of the coke they just got for you. And those types of people are a pretty substantial part of the reason that the end product so many people get is so incredibly shitty that many never experience any sort of decent quality coke. IMO, and personal experience, you never want to buy coke from somebody who is obviously a cokehead themself. Even if it’s not ‘obvious’, if you have to give somebody money and they have to go get it elsewhere I’d be willing to bet at least half of the coke you paid for is in a separate bag in their pocket, and you’re either ripped off price/weight wise or they added whatever coke-like powder available to supplement the lost weight.

Even with good/great blow it’s very easy to start off with ‘baby lines’ and by the end of the night/next day they’re the size of your finger. Unless you happen to have a source for shit that’s like 93+ plus the chance of a coke OD is slim to none, I’d be more concerned about unknown cuts. If you’re truly concerned of going overboard keep a few benzos on hand and if you feel you did too much pop a benzo and you should be leveled out.

In all honestly that’s hardly good harm reduction advise, but realistically if the coke you’re doing is complete shit you’ll (almost certainly) be perfectly okay pushing the bar so to speak and do some fat lines so you actually experience that initial great coke high. Just keep in mind it doesn’t continue to feel like that after the first few times. Coke addiction isn’t fun and fucking expensive as hell.

Very very talkative...
 
Last time I tried freebase cocaine, it didn't do jack shit for me. Tasted like cocaine, made me nauseated as fuck & was incredibly boring in comparison to other stimulants.

I'm assuming it's because it was just insanely shitty freebase, but the other two people I was with seemed to enjoy it. I thought it was trash. Nothing like the cocaine I remember from being a teenager. That shit had me talkative, horny, teeth grinding, etc... I got none of that from this "freebase".

Makes me curious though why cocaine causes nausea but methylphenidate, amphetamine & methamphetamine never give me any nausea. I actually found regular ol' adderall 100x more enjoyable than the trash "freebase cocaine" I tried.

I can't believe anyone would spend the kind of money they spend on cocaine, especially if so much of it is trash & there's better options out there.


I smoked crack in 2018 with some heroin & that was an incredibly enjoyable, memorable experience (could've just been the heroin, which I like more than stims anyway). But one of my friends puked her ass off after smoking the crack.
 
The one constant was that it made everyone go to the toilet to shit their brains out. And it only took about 3 minutes to do that

Had been doing lines for a while and not much happening. Today tried a tiny bit of some other stuff and it was brilliant!! I thought I'd only taken a few scoops but what a difference.. my mate said he was fleeing and hes normally good with the stuff.

Just shows you...the quality and purity makes all the difference. Big lines of crap doesn't do anything. I'm in UK btw
