Have you ever smoked crack? What was it like?

I never really did a lot of drugs besides smoking pot a few times but I tried crack once at a party in college and I felt pretty ashamed of myself immediately after despite high. I didn't try it again and am actually a sober adult now, not because I had a drug problem but I just grew out of wanting to try them and never liked to drink alcohol.

I never met anyone else who would ever admit to trying it though or even cocaine despite statistically knowing many people have haha. Any crack smokers on lemmy?

Yeah. I've smoked tons of crack. I was on heroin for years before I tried it the first time. Within a month of smoking crack regularly my life was down the fucking tubes. It's bad shit. Like really really bad shit. I would strongly recommend anyone reading this NEVER EVER try it.

Only thing I've done that fucked my life worse than crack was meth, and only by margins that could easily be a rounding error.....

Oh yeah. I could imagine. AFAIK, I only did meth once and it went poorly. Myself and a friend did a ton of MDMA the night before, the next day my buddy's dealer texts him about having blue molly (there's no such thing as blue molly). So we're like lets-fucking-go, and we laid the whole gram out and started sniffing it up. We thought because we did so much the night before we would have huge tolerances. We did not, because it wasn't MDMA. So we each did like half a gram of really shitty meth and blue food coloring. I was absolutely sure I was going to die for like an entire 24 hours.

Yeah, it's a motherfucker like that. Least it didn't turn into a habit. That's basically what happened to me, but then I wasn't able to kick it for 2 years. Went From 280lbs to 160 in like 7 months. The thing that pulled me out was getting busted for committing a crime. And by that point I wanted out, but had no idea how to.

So glad to hear your off it and hopefully doing better! Care-Comrade

Clean for basically spitting distance of 20 years. Happily living my best life.
Thanks comrade, hope you're doing as well as you can.
