I was told after an MRI that I have 3 lesions on my brain. They (the doctors) told me I have excessive cocaine in my brain. I was wondering if there was anything that could be done to remove these lesions of the coke in my head? Your medical response is greatly appreciated.

Well written article I have no off switch. Some may…… knock yourselves out. Me on the other hand the switch doesn’t exist. So yep it’s all or nothing. I hit the signs of overdose. No sleep and sitting on my couch sweating bullets and having hallucinations and delusions. For me it was an evil awful drug that took 20 years of my life away. I have nothing good to say about it. If you have an addictive personality dont do it. You could get lucky like myself and get clean after hurting finances, friends, loved ones and family or you could simply die. Evil stuff.

I’m bi-polar, manic-depressive (more to the manic side), have both adult forms of ADD & ADHD. I also suffer from extremely low B12 levels and hypothyroidism. I smoke pot on a daily basis, but every once in a while, yeah, I’ll go find some good coke. Seriously, like once ever 4-6 months. But I’ll say this, it helps a LOT when I do get it. Gives me the drive to get up a DO, instead of just sitting here thinking about the 5 million things I’ll never get done… LOL. ANY and EVERY drug can be abused. I see more damage done by LEGAL PRESCRIPTION DRUGS. “They” just don’t talk about it because then big pharma would loose out. Coke used to be a prescribed medicine too.

No natural extract or pharmacutical chemical will effect everyone the same way. When we are condition to different environments and exposed long term exposure of negative conditions it will change mental and physical state of being and feeling. We are organic! From the earth.

Cocaine has no medicinal value whatsoever, outside of being topical analgesic. It’s 1/2 life is 1 hr. 1 hr!!!! Dopamine flood. You will always want more. First few times might be bliss al da.. but continue and you could easily end up with psychosis.

Well written – and I think like we both not condoning the use of the drug – don’t let it own you. If you want to know what it is – do a line. You will not be addicted in the click of a finger. And you can then see (actually a bit of a anti Climax or disappointment. It is definitely not a drug to defend – it has hurt too many lives. So has alcohol – so has supporting the wrong political party where I come from) I think this forum is a gentle shake of the head to Hollywood and the media for sometimes, sometimes blaming it when there are deeper demons at work.

In my experience of using it – the big question of “honesty with youself” was the most important. I have found in my (14 yrs) years of recreational use – there are certain times when you have to ask YOURSELF if you are walking the knife edge. I have had depression since 15 – and have tried both Herbal remedies , and prescription. I will never go off my anti depressants – and I have rules. Never need it. Never if you have work the next day. And only buy what you can afford AFTER taking care of priorities. I suffer terribly from anxiety ( I was badly bullied ) and when I’m ready to have a good night out – I do coke – I don’t drink – and I never ever lose control. It needs to be a RESPECTED drug that I believe if you are strong enough – you can control and enjoy it ( time and a place ) as always – if you over indulge – be honest – put it down – take a benzo – and walk away – so that there can be a next time. One of the better less opinionated forums to chat on – thanks. _________

Yes, I know what you’re talking about. I have a brain disorder related to the production of serotonin and dopamine in my brain, I have been treated for many years with pharmaceutical drugs and I have never been able to solve my problem. The side effects of these remedies are the worst part, some of them are muscle aches, difficulty sleeping, difficulty concentrating, irritation, discomfort, and many other problems, I really stopped feeling sad and having suicidal thoughts, but in return I won several other problems which made me worse, physically and psychologically. My experience with cocaine was different from these pharmaceutical remedies. I really feel better getting cocaine in my daily life.

Would be great if you could include information about how cocaine affects the menstrual cycle and fertility.
For example “Unfortunately, little research has been done into the specific effects of recreational drugs on the menstrual cycle. However, cocaine causes a spike in levels of the hormone prolactin. In high amounts, prolactin can inhibit ovulation, causing hormonal imbalances and delayed, irregular periods. These effects would normally be from regular abuse. There is a similarity in prolactin levels between heavy cocaine users and sufferers of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, where some patients can suffer from fertility problems due to a lack of ovulation; hence women who abuse cocaine may difficulty conceiving.”

Ok so I’m not saying it’s a good thing to use it has it’s pros and cons like everything as above so below I enjoy it but I can’t let consume me just like anything wether it food,Make up dnt matter it can all be a drug or an escape depends on your perspective in my experience I’ve used it taking advantage of the emotional amplification that goes on while your in the high,if you dnt let it own you you can correlate emotions with past trans or memories to pin point what’s going on with you internally if you notice it makes you feel a alive alert and in this state you approach the mind with a little less fear and your able to question things without fear holding you back point is know your self the the external experience is a reflection of the internal relationship,you are a sum of every choice every though you be ever had to this point

I’ve done it. In my youth. My ex bf died from eventually smoking crack and mixing pills years after I had removed myself from the “party” life. He was also depressed. Anyone on here stating that it’s a positive drug and big pharma is just holding it from us like Marijuana is ingiranr and has no experience.

My understanding is that it can actually make psychosis worse.

I think that pretending that cocaine isn’t really all that bad is kind of irresponsible.

You know, maybe they’re onto something when they say that the paranoia it produces is intense.

The reason why cocaine is illegal is because it helps people with mental health issues to fix their logic and get on the business which is against the interests of pharmaceutical corporations and Drs, it also helps against electronic harassment and covert gang stalking operations from the gov of good samaritans being targeted and spurred into crime in which case If it is consumed more intellect, logic and alertness for work is the outcome.

Cocaine is a stimulant and can work as an antipsychotic to remove depression and anxiety it can also remove depression and make your logic work better.

I’ve had depression and anxiety since teenage years. Been on psychiatric medications for about 20 years. There was a time when I used cocaine for about 6 months. Best part of my life. Psychiatric medications take away any reward system and causes you to just feel fearful or angry.

Very insightful and honest which is why I’m such an avid reader of your work.
Thank you.
