destroys the chemical synapses in your brain that act as pleasure receptors. Basically it fries them with over stimulation to the point where they don't react to normal impulses.

After cocaine abuse, you no longer feel the same pleasure from everyday things that used to make you happy.

It basically results in brain damage, depression, anxiety, and all sorts of other emotional problems.


sounds like alcohol?

some of you are so beyond dumb fr. I swear I'm just on a different brain wavelength. like I'm not human and I just think differently and better than people. fuk.

If I don't get happy anymore then I won't be sad when I can't do happy things.

Sign me up for some cocaine abuse!

It is legal. It's schedule II. Good luck finding a physician to prescribe it or a pharmacy outside a hospital that carries it, but it can be used, mostly in ENT surgery. Saw it used in a life-threatening nosebleed once.

This is why things are controlled*, unfortunately. Your understanding is very limited. Cocaine is pretty tough on blood vessels. It can cause high enough blood pressure to hurt you and cause blood vessels to spasm, leading to strokes and heart attacks in basically healthy people.


*I think the controlled substance acts are pretty stupid and that idiots should be allowed to be idiots if it doesn't hurt anyone. I just wish I could have the hours back of having to deal with coked out people in the ER.

It is not physically addictive, but mentally damned sure habit forming. You might not even like getting a nut instead of a snort. You may have want to shoot it or smoke it for quicker delivery of the high.

I believe in drug legalization, but this isn't true. I was a cocaine user for 10 years, but have been clean for 3 years. At the end of my usage, I was snorting anywhere between 1 gram and 2 grams per day. I spent every dime I had on coke and booze. I was strung out all the time and was an obnoxious piece of shite. Heaven knows how many times I drove completely loaded. I lost a good job because of it and, had I not gone to an outpatient rehab, would have lost my fiance and family. People should be free to make their own choices and mistakes, but don't minimize what cocaine can do to someone.

It's really getting out of hand. I don't want somebody loaded and can't think crashing into me or my family while they pretend to drive a vehicle. Stop this madness of legalizing all that crap.

Cocaine has prevented plenty of people from reaching their full potential.

It’s too awesome to be legal, like a 1600 hp mustang or a fully auto .50 cal, while awesome, the average American couldn’t handle it day to day
