Cocaine Addiction & Recovery Support Group
Cocaine addiction is the excessive intake of cocaine, and can result in physiological damage, lethargy, depression, or a potentially fatal overdose. Though the immediate craving to do more cocaine is strong and very common, this feeling usually subsides in most users within an hour. This craving can, as it has in many users, develop rather quickly into an intense...
what helped me get off coke/crack yet still party

Hey gang, I actually got here looking for another topic but since i have been a heavy non-stop cocaine and crack user in my past during three multiple-year binges - i might have some solutions that are unique, who knows? Maybe they are not so unique but here goes.
First of all, in one word: Ritalin.
Ritalin is know as "legal cocaine" for a reason, the molecule is nearly identical, and the action similar. Most importantly, it feels much the same in higher doses. Unfortunately it is for me just as addicting HOWEVER there are so many upsides:
1) its legal and if you are a coke addict there is a good chance you have add or adhd. 90% of meds for ADD/ADHD are speed derivatives.
2) its much cheaper, and you aren't gong to be afraid to run out.. its not going away. you don't have to have any dealer connects with shady people.
3) the quality if always the same
4) you will find you don't binge until the end.. i don't use an entire bottle even if i go crazy on a saturday night with a party attitude, although i can go though half :) still, with blow/crack i'd never stop until the end, and then re-order and re-order nonstop.
5) you have options.. Vyvanse is just really pure "street amphetamines" whereas as Adderral is "mixed street amphetamines" giving an even more drugged-out feelings, finally there is Desoxyn which is literally pure methamphetamines.
The ADD pill were the immediate end for coke/crack cravings because of the above features. Only Ritalin actually feels like cocaine and takes away my cocaine/crack cravings, and only when i redose two or three times to truly satisfy those receptors, but frankly i wouldn't touch powdered cocaine for a million bucks, and crack cocaine i would probably only give in if it were in front of me.
Which brings me to.. jesus christ get out of your neighborhood away from your dealers.. without that, nobody can help. They depend on you more than you know, but thats old hat so i won't repeat.
Idea #2 that helped me was to actually "learn to forget" my dealer's phone numbers.. i did that by replacing their numbers in my cell with mulitple entries, all close to the original, but not nearly close enough to remember the original. I did NOT think it would work, but by golly the brain is maleable enough it always worked in the end for me heheh i guess its similar to saying "6...2...9..5.." when somebody in the room is trying to calculate.. it works on even the most genius or mathematicians lol
Idea #3: and this is the idea i just had to tell people because i JUST though of it and i personally think its genius...re-mail some to yourself.. ie... if i got 3.5 grams of blow tonight i would prepare beforehand an envelope self-addressed, and still 2 of those grams in there and remail it back to myself. It accomplishes two things: (1) its out of your control and your hands (2) you KNOW its coming back. So the reward is there along with the control factor. With illegal drugs is obviously more of a risk than with legal drugs, but flattened and mailed to the right address with the wrong name is a good solution as long as you are wise and careful enough to bloody well make sure it won't open in the mail. Even in the USA i don't believe your mail departments open mail that are from/to the same city.... god help you all if they do.

I just wanted to say thank you for this. My boyfriend is an addict and even though I may not try your ideas, they have given me something to think about and given me a direction to work with. It's a start and that's one of the things I needed. Thank you and I wish you all the best.
