Cocaine Use

Hey, I have been doing 3.5 g of cocaine or more per day for 3 weeks now. I had 50 gs.
Now i am using it in water as a nasal spray, so i dont get to high but maintain that high.

It started when I lost my job, the next day my Gf broke up with me. I am in A.A. i have been sober for 2 1/2 yrs.


I need to stop...Please help if any info

Same experience here, cocaine is not physically addictive. Strong cravings from stopping, but there is no physical withdrawal, you physically feel better when you stop.

Very different then being addicted to opiates and benzodiazepines and withdrawing. When you go through that there is no mistaking physical addiction vs cravings.

My experience from 30 years ago, only to be left with hcv the gift that keeps on giving like many of us.

I used to use alot of coke myself. I found that I could shoot alot more than I could snort because my nose wouldnt get clogged up.. The only problem is the tree people would start to screw with me, and the CIA kept chasing me and attempting to implant mind control devices.  Now that I have that years behind me, I am dealing with the consequences of drugs, and attempting to clear the disease that I got from my ignorance.  Thanks so much for sharing your consumption amounts and justification for doing so, It helps my HepC alot.

Snark you made me laugh so hard. Once my husband ran around the yard in his underwear for an hour trying to find my 'boyfriend' see he saw a rug (a small rug at that) hanging over the fence where I was airing it out and was convinced my 'boyfriend' was living in a tent.  Oh the good times, the good times.............................

Oh yeah plus the hepc and stage 3 liver damage how could we have gotten so lucky?

OMG  I am laughing my a$$ off.  I met up with a guy at bikeweek in Daytona that was hardcore and he had that parinoia.  I don't know if it was the methadone dilaudid or coke he was doing.  I about $hit when he went crawling around the campground with a gun that I didn't know he had.  Way too much for me

Sure you felt bad......lack of sleep, lack of good food, brain racing in circles and really getting nothing done........I guess I was lucky, when it was gone it was gone, I wasn't one of those that would sell their soul for more.  Problem was, it was never gone LOL
