Update after a while: after reading more on crack rush, that scary experience was in fact the sought after bellringer (that in fact comes as close to OD as it gets) which turned into panic attack due to lack of knowledge.

Background: smoked crack 2 times before this with 1 day interval. Absolutely no side effects, great high. SWIM has no effects from questionable powder even when snorted fat lines or with non-fat lines in general.

Powder cocaine in question is certainly extremely pure as SWIM bought it in large rocks (virtually no powder) and when SWIM cooked it into crack, oils cover the whole surface of the spoon.

Used cocaine for a few weeks on an off (but virtually no euphoria from fat lines of Brazilian street product, just calm), then almost a week nothing. After a week got pure rocks, cooked them into crack. Started only with powder lines for about 2 hours with no less than 30 minute intervals, then had crack hits interchanging with powder to keep the high (kind of lost track of intervals by the end, but nothing too crazy). The high was good. 6 hours later SWIM figured SWIM was ready to stop, but decided to do one last hit (no craving, just a decision) to smoke off oils and throw away the screener. When the smoke was still in lungs felt intense high immediately followed by blurry vision, extreme nausea, cold sweat, jitters and all the symptoms of an overdose. after 5 minutes felt a little better and after 2 hours everything became normal.

SWIM decided to take 1 day break after this. After 1 day SWIM started doing lines and barely felt euphoria, only bad side effects: very tense stomach, some jitters, heavy in chest, bad mood, no desire to talk, still NO heart racing. So started carefully experimenting why this was happening by increasing and decreasing doses, would start an evening only with crack or only with powder. But even first crack hit is accompanied by jitters that become worse and worse, very tense muscles in stomach, little nausea. Same with powder + also jumpy, somewhat irritated and very bad mood. After a few unsuccessful hits, would wait an hour to comedown completely. When all cleared another hit/line caused the same side effects. Tried shortening intervals to 15-20 mins, same story, which essentially means 6 hours of non-stop side effects with a few short crack highs. Sometimes after about 4 hours of bad side effects, yet another redose would completely fix bad feelings that will not be back after one more redose and very smooth relaxed comedown would follow, which is even more strange. If this was how SWIM's body reacted to cocaine, why would redose stop bad feeling, but still produce no euphoria..... Sometimes SWIM is even hungry when SWIM is supposed to be high, but cannot eat more than a bite of something.

SWIM never did more than 6 hours of cocaine per night and never less than 20 mins intervals.. The problem is that SWIM feels those extreme side effects 30 seconds after smoking crack which is not really a comedown, but a reaction of SWIM's body.

So can somebody explain if this is a psychological issue that causes fear of overdose or SWIM's body doesn't feel like doing cocaine ever again? Based on some reading, cocaine itself clears from body within about 1 hour which is the reason it's hard to OD on it unless large doses are frequently taken.

SWIm smokes with glass pipe and 100% steel screener as copper is nowhere to be found in this area. Crack is coooked from powder+soda (including additional wash to remove excess soda). Snorts only crashed rocks to ensure purity. Theoretically, it's possible steel burnt and SWIM poisoned with metal vapors. But what is going on with the body after this incident? and why SWIM managed to get over those terrible side effects several times after several hours of redosing? The following day SWIM feels good, but gets shitty feeling shit right after SWIM starts doing it again.

SWIM likes cocaine as it calms SWIM and helps SWIM relax after a stressful day. This experience is very disappointing thought... SWIM just stopped it altogether as the last time was just very very tiring. SWIM still has 15 grams left and would rather not flash it down the toilet. But SWIM only has a few weeks left before the flight. So how long should SWIM wait? 2 days enough for SWIM's body to recover or depends? Maybe somebody has experience with something similar.
 
please stop swimming here we all know you smoke crack.
have you considered your body is trying to tell you something?

very informative post.... because a person posting on a public forum certainly didn't consider that the body might be trying to tell something.

I could care less who knows what and what they think about smoking crack as I personally do not think certain drugs in moderation are any worse than Mcdonalds, coca-cola, alcohol or any other shit consumed by millions of people on a daily basis. Authorities monitoring such forums is a totally different story.

The person in question didn't really abuse the drug and majority of users don't see any problem until they have developed a serious dependency. + if too much is too much, redosing would never solve the side effect and would never result in smooth comedown - in the above case it does. So something is not right and would be nice if somebody with experience and understanding shared their knowledge.
