I never really did a lot of drugs besides smoking pot 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 "California" 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.

    nope. Especially now after having lived for a few years in a booming rehab community, seeing secondhand where addiction gets people.

    I did coke a few times, it was okay. The high doesn't last long enough to justify the cost, and I was already jonesing for more the last time

    Yeah smoked it a couple of times. Wasn't as good as expected. We were all quite in to party drugs, ie ecstasy, speed, coke, acid etc. The buzz on crack wasn't a patch on a good trip!
