so I thought I'd take a little detour from the drugs I like, to the ones I don't. In this case; Cocaine.
Cocaine is nerve stimulant obtained from the leaves of a coca plant, not to be confused with the "Cocoa" plant we all know and love.
Cocain is a nervous system stimulant, a very addictive and dangerous stimulant at that. Long periods of use can lead to serious physical and even mental degradation.
I've only tried cocain once, but that one time was enough for me. Its a very paradoxial drug, I hated the expierience, but at the same time, I kind of enjoyed it. Still, the bad outweighs the good in something like this.
The most common way of taking cocain is "snorting" it through the nostrils. However, people will go as far as to smoke it or even inject it straight into their vains.
The feeling produced by snorting cocain is (i hate to say it) actually enjoyable. Its essentially a mood elevator, making a person feel like they're on top of the world. But everything else that comes with the drug just feel un-natural and weird. After a person snorts it, they get what is commonly called a "drip" where the remnants of the drug starts driping down the back of your throat. The high lasts about 45 minutes to an hour, with the "come down" lasting about 20 minutes or so. When a person is "coming down" from a cocain high, it just feels (pardon my french) shitty. It feels almost like that grimy feeling you get when you stay up all night and then the rest of that day.
This isn't really the greatest of my posts, I had this post sitting in limbo for about 2 months and with the end of the semester coming up, I thought now is as good a time as any to publish it. Hopefully this week I'll be able to get some quality posts out. For now, keep the questions coming. I always enjoy giving advice or answering concerns that people have.
