Why does cocaine get such a reaction out of your mind/body just by thinking about it?

Today a friend brought up the idea of getting some white. I was thinking it over in my mind and decided to go along with him. As soon as my body realized I was going to be putting cocaine into it at some point in the day I started getting incredible reactions and sensations.

My heart began racing, my hands started shaking, I could feel my dick start to get hard, and I had to shit. I've been on opiates for the last few days and probably wouldn't have had a shit naturally for another 2 days but just the thought of coke entering my bloodstream allowed me to do my business early. Also I noticed feeling more awkward talking with my parents which was always an issue while I was high on coke. I didn't notice it but I'm sure my nose started running somewhat during this time.

Now I know that your body will naturally prepare for the substance you're about to ingest if you've had a long history of using it and this is one of the reasons that tolerance exists. But why does cocaine seem to be the only substance that truly gets a reaction out of you by the thought alone? I've never experienced anything to that magnitude with other substances.

BTW, I ended up deciding not to pick any up. I think experiencing those sensations early made me remember how strong an effect it had on me which is something I can easily overlook when I'm NOT high.
 
Cocaine isn't the only drug that does that. When I know I'm about to do MDMA I get the shits, my palms become sweaty, my heart races and it seems like I feel a slight bit of euphoria just thinking about it before I dose. This can even happen to me if I know I'm going to do it the next day, I'll have all the symptoms up until I dose. It's really weird.
 
another good word: psychological addiction. totally normal esp. if coke is your DOC. ive heard herion users say going through the process of cooking up a shot is nearly half the fun...i dont doubt it. if im ever so lucky and get prescribed oxycodone, i already get tingles, shivers just waiting in the pharmacy for them to call my name. and if im waiting for my normal scripts, and someone ahead of me in line gets narcotics, i briefly consider grabbing their bottle and running. but that is a very very big no no. legally its frowned upon :) not to mention society doesnt take kindly to that sort of thing. just saying, youre feeling is normal. the bad news is, if you try to clean up, this feeling you have is a main cause for relapse. 'euphoric recall'. anyhow, be safe.

i snorted an e pill a couple days ago. one of my friends did too and she complained about the pain...(which is weird because she's a pretty experienced drug user) i've never snorted anything in my life up until then, but i actually really liked to feeling... but then i seen this guy snorting blow on tv, and now i can't stop thinking about trying cocaine, like for days it's been all i could think about and it kinda gives me "butterflies"just thinking about it.
 
it only does that if one is currently addicted to cocaine. I used to get that, then I discovered oxycontin when I was 20, and moved on from cocaine from there. I've had probably 10 one night benders in the past 5 years, I could take it or leave it. but I gotta have my opies.
 
haha, just had to add to the comment that dude feels like grabbing the person's thats ahead of thems bag and run, I've had that same thought many times, when you hear or can tell their getting something good, you just wanna snatch that shit and run out as fast as you can haha that gave me a good laugh, especially cause I've considered doing it before myself
