Please help ...really scared...

[Houstonwarriors]

I'm 27 years old...I used to do a lot of street drugs from 19-25....Ecstacy, Meth, Crack, Weed.  I've quit dramatically my last 2-3 years.  I've stopped smoking meth for about 2 years now.  But i've been smoking crack cocaine once a month for the past maybe year.  But last night....I went out after excessive drinking...I smoked cracked cocaine ( 20-30 hits)....And unfortuanelty I smoked meth  ( 20-30 hits).....Now I've been through this down feeling....before many times...and I always managed to eat something and get some rest.  But yesterday was the first time I mixed the two drugs and I smoke more than I've used to.  I still haven't slept yet..i've been wide awake...I managed to eat a small plate of food the whole day....and i've drank  a lot of water and cranberry juice.  I know that these drugs get me really paronoid 6-8 hours of smoking...So should I be concerned about dying or having a stroke or heartattack? If so...what are the symptoms of a stroke or heartattack... I know there are addicts that smoke this everyday and probably much more thatn I do.   Should I be worried..or is this just the paronoia kicking in.  
My body right now feels weak , sore, and tingly, and tight pain right underneath my adams apple, but above my chest.  What should I do?...I don't want to go to the ER if I don't have to....should I take a nyquil or tylenol pm to cause drowsiness?   Please give me some advice....
Obviously I realize I do have a drug addiction problem...maybe not a big one..but certaintly a small one.  I've read therapy therpay therapy..but I really don't think thatll help me.  I think I just have to quit on my own will...I know its hard..but I just have to.  

Thanks for your time...

My opinion is that you have enough of a drug cocktail circulating that you dont need the nyquil or anything.... And excuse me if I drift off topic or anything but I frequenly resort to warped humor when I am stumped.....havent been hungry today, huh? Gee - maybe it has something to do with amphetamines? I could never figure out why there was so much speed available in Vietnam - a freaking country where no one weighs over 90 pounds ...then I did figure it out - still didnt help any, though. Look at the right hand side of your screen and find the box that says Health Discussions - then find and read the Amino Acid Protocol - treat your body like its the only one you will get. My wife used to kid me about treating your body like a temple. She said that I treated mine like a tent!! So I do actually know where you are coming from. And its a good place to leave. Have you ever seen anyone in convulsions from excess cocaine? It causes a temporal lobe siezure thats quite dramatic.....and the really whacko part? That individual got up from the floor to take another hit ------  its not a cool thing to do ....Stop the madness

also..get ur house like really colld and bundle up as cold slows ur metabolism and helps u sleep..got a good book>?  get it out and read away..or a good flick...relax and just remeber not to do this to urself anymore..just taint worth it

i would doubt it is a stroke..if u feel a bad headache or feel a loss of ur senses then go get checked..walmart has 5htp and the big walmarts have tyrosine as well..rite aid has them both for sure in their gnc section..get some valerian root to sleep with..nyquil can have an opposite effect sometimes and cause anxiety...take 5htp and some valerian root and lay down after a hot bath and this will pass...take the tyrosine during the day as it may interfere with sleep

Thanks for the quick response.   You think I should take the nyquil or tylenol pm so I can sleep.  I've ate so little all day...but I"m really not hungry...should I go get a slimfast or drink milk?   And when you say replacing dopamine and seretonin...where Do I get or buy that at? ....But overall....I shouldn't really worry about going to the ER right? ...I think i'm just parnoid.....But I do feel numbness in my hands and feet when I stand...

Thanks

yep...especially dopamine with crack...get some tyrosine...u r blasting ur brain with endorphin overload then taking it way..not a nice game to play on ur poor brain and it is mad at u right now!...the high is followed by a low....the amount u r doing sounds like it could be a "bigger" problem than u think especially since u keep on doing it even tho u suffer the next day..that is getting into addict world as u will tend to do it again to make this dreadful feeling go away...then u r in the cycle of addiction and that is a tough one..if ur problem is still "a little one" then get out before it destroys u..this stuff dont get any better..only worse

Yep - time to quit. Of course everyone should be concerned about dieing. And regardless of how much you think you were doing - there are also people dieing everyday from it. And a host of other medical problems that accompany the drugs....Ever had a heart attack? I have. Its not a feeling that you want to get to know. And the paranoia? You may want to think about replacing dopamine and seretonin that have been totally depleted by the meth and crack. Thats a good place to start - and good luck to you - its time for a reality check.... this is totally real  -------
