I need to settle something quickly......
My boyfriend and I have been arguing for the last 2 days about how much coke i have been doing.
Over the last 2 weeks, I have done about 4 grams of coke.
Yes I have cravings to do more, but i havent gone out and bought any more. I have to stop myself from going to my dealer and getting more, but as I said, i havent bought any more.
Would this be termed as addiction? And is doing the amount i have done too much?
 
Coke isnt physically addictive. If you are having cravings you are definately somewhat psychologically addicted. Psychological addictions arent shit so even even cares?
Your the only one who can say if the amount you have done is too much.

If you have to come here and ask us this question then yes, it is probably too much. You might not want to admit when you are out of control but you should have a pretty good idea of when you are starting to lose it. Look for warning signs like really having to restrain yourself to avoid going to score more. Also you know you are a true coke girly when you start convincing your boyfriend that coke isn't so bad by blowing lines off his dick.
 
4 grams of coke in 2 weeks is not that much. Unless your constantly snorting lines and don't feel you can function in life without coke, I wouldn't call it an addiction. Most coke addicts could consume 4 grams of coke in a night. 2 weeks thats a little over a QG a night. So basicly a line a day. Thats NOTHING. Although, like the others said, if your starting to get cravings you might want to "tone it down" a bit. Wait until the cravings go away before buying more, otherwise it will become a habitual cycle and thats where the addiction starts:
Do coke->Cravings go away->come down->Crave coke->Buy coke->Do coke

This is utter crap. I think a psychological addiction can be just as serious as a physical addiction and plus addiction should not be categorized. Either your addicted or your not addicted. Who cares if it's Psychological or physical. Either way you could have a problem.
To the original post. If it's creating a problem with you two than ya, it's a problem. In terms of quantity. 4 grams is not that much over that time period.
 
thank you for your replies. and no, i dont think i would snarf lines of his dick :)
but all jokes aside, i have noticed serious mood swings when i dont have. It still hasnt made me go out and buy more (except for this coming friday - but i havent bought yet)cos i promised myself - not during the week, but i am very irritable etc, and i feel like i want to 'bite my boyfriends head off' if he says something about me doing coke. I notice myself sticking up for the substance. I realise that this is a problem, but I guess it is something i have to sort out.
 
"Psychological addictions arent shit so even even cares?"
Obviously someone who has never been psychologically addicted to a drug.
