Question: Have you ever tried Cocaine, how addictive was it to you.?
OK, I'm not going to do it I just want to make that clear, I am writing a paper on addicting drugs and why they are so addicting, I want to know from people who have done Cocaine, how often did you do it, or still do it, do you consider yourself to have and addictive personallity and did you or do you consider yourself to be addicted to it. What makes it so addictive to you, or is it. Just please tell me your story on your addiction or even if you have done it once tell me how you felt about it, did you want to do it again but found it too addicting or could you control it.
This is probably the only drug I don't have any kind of expirence on as far as knowing someone who has done it alot. And please include as much info as possible this has to be a really long paper, lots of info.

Ok, first of all, cocaine is not the same as crack. Crack is a cooked form of cocaine, and supposedly more addictive. So let's not confuse the rich man's drug for a street level bum drug.
I have an addictive personality, one I've always known, and when I get my hands on cocaine, I get my hands on cocaine until my money is depleted. No joke. Luckily where I DID live it wasn't readily available. I know better, I know the health risks (which are absolutely horrifying from cocaine), but consider myself warned and keep myself healthy through the phase of doing it.
However, I moved to a place where it was readily available, and once I had that connection it was hell. I think more or less what made it addictive to me (just finished up a 2 week binge 2 months ago totaling 35 grams) is the "aura" surrounding it. The rockstar image, the badass feeling you get, unstoppable, etc. I don't use it to escape reality (though it makes problems seem like blessings in life, everything is perfectly OK) and so I've learned that I simply enjoy the culture surrounding cocaine. Racking up a line, or two, or twenty.
I eventually did so much in a month (2 weeks 35 grams, another 10 grams to round out 4 weeks) that I was completely sick of it, and luckily didn't succumb to an overdose. All drugs are the same, but cocaine, in the beginning, simply makes you feel happy about your position in life but will eventually turn you into a sad, sad shameful person who wants to hide the addiction.Health Question & Answer

its almost instantly addictive.
As soon as you start coming down from the buzz you NEED more. it takes some real effort on your (ok my part) to not get more. Once I bought an 8 ball with intentions of making it last all weekend. It lastes less than 1 night.
its a GREAT buzz but a horrible way to die. it's just not worth itHealth Question & Answer

Never addicted son.Health Question & Answer
i have done coke alot, however i do not find it addictive as in the need to be on it all the time,
but when you are already under its influences it is very addictive and you tend to want to do alot of it.
i do it once a twice a week when i go to a certain place, it i like to take it as it fills you with energy. mixed with the right drugs and you can have a really good time, with out a major comedown, which u may get from alcohol.
i tend to not do it as much now as im skint, ( i spend alot when under the influence, as i tend to get greedy)
wouldn't turn down a free line right now though!Health Question & Answer

I did cocaine around 20-30 times about a year ago. It wasn't even a weekly thing due to the cost; I'm guessing I did it once every few weeks or so. I never got fully addicted yet I still get cravings. It is an extremely powerful drug that brings pleasure a non-user could never imagine. What it really comes down to is personal strength i.e. whether or not you let it control you. It almost got addicting mainly because the rush comes on almost immediately and it gives you a sense of power. I play soccer and I tried playing while on coke a few times. It made me a better player, believe it or not, because it gives your mind the ability to process information a lot more quickly and there is obviously extra energy to burn. The immediate rush combined with the feeling of competence made it very hard to give up. It ended up being a financial decision to quit even though I do not in the least have an addictive personality so I would say it is extremely addictive.Health Question & Answer
Since my mother and grandmother and several others in my family were alcoholic or drug addicted, I've been told I have an 'addictive personality.' I do drink, but extremely little (less than one 'glass of wine' or hard alcoholic drink per month), and I've used many 'drugs' both illegal and prescribed. I tried cocaine (straight cocaine, not 'crack' cocaine) one time. I got a bit of 'energy' from it but was otherwise unimpressed. I would never try 'crack' for my own reasons, but I have been around people who have been 'addicted' to crack cocaine. I think the 'instant addictiveness' is more real when a person does 'crack' (smoking it), and their behavior changes drastically even after the first 'high.' I can't even be in a room where people have smoked crack recently, because I get headaches and want to throw up because the 'smell' is so distinctive. When I lived in a 'big city' I could walk into many public restrooms, smell the crack and would have to leave because someone was or had been 'smoking it' in there ... and I've seen far too much devastation, loss of family and friends from smoking crack. I hope this helps you at least a little bit.Health Question & Answer
well i think its only crack actually if u melt it down and add stuff to it. anyways, i know that the base of it comes from a plant, but its what they add to it to "cut" it and make it go farther that makes it alot worse. i have done it years ago before i had a family, i was in college and yes its fun once in a while. yes i do have an addictive personality, but i never really got addicted to coke...i just knew it was too bad and too expensive to get it all the time. so i did it just for fun on like a boring friday night or something. i wouldnt do it again either because i am a mom now and i have way to much to lose for a stupid high!Health Question & Answer
