what is the difference? I mean in the “high” — I know Coke will keep you up all night — it’s like a speed but is crack the same?
EXPERIENCED USERS PLEASE…….
No, I’m NOT going to do either – my son is a heroin addict and i KNOW all about that hell……………he’s 29.
Oh and before you judge, my other son is a corpsman…..both raised the same.
THIS IS JUST A QUESTION — not asking you how you would judge me as a mom…..
My aunt has never been straight.But she was usually just drunk alot.Then she started taking painpills constantly.This is when she started to try to abandon her children.But now she is on crack cocaine and now my sister has her son and her daughter is living with one of her friends.The son is 13 and the daughter 16.She is out of her mind.No one knows for sure where she’s been living.I believe she goes from place to place with her bf.Her bf is also a crack addict.My family is affraidand won’t do anything about this because they don’t want to see the children put in foster care.I personally don’t like this woman and I don’t care if she gets in trouble.She has another daughter who is 20 but she is on drugs bad too.What could one do to have her put away.Whether it’s jail or rehab.I don’t care but how do you go about reporting someone like this?Who can you report them too?
Ok, Anyway i sent my 12 year old to school, with lunch, But i couldnt get the desert in time so i sent him to shool with some sugercubes for desert about 3 anyway and the school accused him with possession of crack cocaine they said it was the so called ”Arctic White” Cocaine when the tests came back it was suger. Anyway he got put in Juvinile hall before the results came in can i sue or what?
And again the reason i gave him 3 suger cubes is because i didnt have the time to get the brownies done!
I have been through many detox and substance abuse programs. My father was the southeasts largest supplier of cocaine in the 80`s and 90`s. I had him arrested thinking that if I could take away the ease of access I could take away my addiction. I only made my addiction more expensive as now I have to pay for the cocaine that I use. I have cut way back (from 1/2 ounce daily in 1990 to several grams a year). The problem is when I get started I can`t stop until I have no more money. THis causes a strain on my marriage (to my fourth wife) as I do not come home until I`m broke and hurting.
Please someone give me some advice, if you have ever seen the movie where johnny depp plays the drug kingpin, this was my life in the 80`s and 90`s, but not as the kingpin, but the son caught up in the game. We had police paid off, planes running dope from Mexico to USA. I saw corruption, racketeering, money laundering, even murder of DEA officials and witnesses for the state. This left me scarred foreve
I dreamed this last night: I was marrying Gene Simmons. So were 2 other women, 1 of whom had his son, 1 of whom was a long-term girlfriend (not Shannon Tweed but a woman I met last year). Only I was wearing a white dress & veil. It was outdoors. Before it could begin, my dogs got out & started playing with 3 deer. Then the dogs attacked & started killing the deer. I ran to stop them but was slowed by the green marbles I’d accidently implanted in my (bare) feet. A dr onsite tried to remove them but said I’d have to have surgery to get the last 2 out. He also found a cancer in there. BTW, my feet were semi-transparent. Didn’t see the ceremony but suddenly we were all married. Simmons & the other 2 women prepared to leave. The women each gave me a pendant before they left. One was a turquoise teardrop; one a silver flower. The end. I’m not a Simmons fan and I didn’t eat, drink, smoke, or use anything before bed. And I never remember details like this. Your interpretation, please?
Wow, this was really fun! Thanks for all the great answers. Some were spot on, some were way off, but all were interesting. And I appreciate the amount of work that went into a couple of them. Just so you can rate your own answers: I don’t have any fetishes, I don’t like dirty old men, I’m not bi, I’m not in a serious relationship, and I’m not competitive. I am afraid of commitment and marriage, and quite happy with my single status. And I happened to see Gene Simmons on tv twice last week, which is probably what prompted the dream. Thanks again.
Has anyone smoked crack before, if so what’s it feel like? My son has been doing this and he cant stop I recently found out my son has been smoking crack, and he cant stop. I was curious as to what it feels like to make someone not want to stop. So if youve tried crack, did you stop and what does it feel like that people like it so much? I am worried about my son and am trying to understand why he wont stop.
My Brother – in – laws girlfriend is a proud user of Cocaine and other heavy drugs. She has heart problems most likely as a result. She is now pregnant and it is assumed that she has stopped however she is 19 and immature so she does leave my BIL frequently to go home when she is upset with him. Her younger brother at home is also an addict.
Now my main concern is that she adamant that she is going to continue doing cocaine after she has the baby which is Absolutely disgusting behavior!!
I am very worried about my nephew as he is already a high risk pregnancy.
What would you do? Can Child Services help in alberta? Or with they likely shrug it off? Is there oh er organizations in alberta that can help?
I have been having problems with some people who moved in the building i live in in matter a fact they live down the hallway from me.They hang out all day and all night they don’t seem to work! well anyway since they have kids on their side of the hallway they come to my side since the stairs and entrance to the roof are there, and smoke cigaretts. yesterday my 2 year old son which is an asthmatic wakes up crying when i turn the lights on i notice my son is short of breath and I smell this horrible smell like if a pot or a pan burned but it also smelled sort of a mix of piss and sweet perfume smell, like if someone sprayed perfume to cover the smell or something.
I tought the smell was coming from outside but it wasn’t. I check the hallway and bingo the smell was coming from there.
I look and look and I see nobody in the hallway. So I’am thinking they might of been in the roof.
I really need to know if this was some type of drug like cocaine or crack i was smelling yesterday.
My 6 year old daughter is stuck with her mother who is addicted to crack. My daughter isnt being taken care of properly, bathed, fed or anything else. My ex wifes mother, father, brother, 15 year old daughter and 21 year old son have all called the police and DCS for her addiction, child neglect and her trying to steal etc. I pay $140 a week for child support and the ex doesnt work. My daughter sees none of this money and not only do I not get to see her, but I also dont get to talk to her because my ex is homeless with my daughter and has no phone. I have been in court for 3 months with this and still havent gotten anything accomplished. I cant complain about my attorney because he is doing everything possible and I have spent thousands of dollars. She has done nothing the judge has ordered and hasnt even gotten an attorney. I work everyday and have a good stable job and Im not on drugs. I am out of ideas other than doing something that I will be in jail for. Any ideas on what to do?
My sister has been hooked on crack for 10 years. I am raising her son. She is 30 and has never had a job or been responsible for anything in her life. When my mom died a few years ago, her will said that whatever money my sister received from her life insurance should be held in my trust. That money has run out and now my sister is receiving settlement money from the lawsuit over my mom’s death. (mesothelioma) This money legally doesn’t have to be held in my trust. It could go straight to my sister but she agreed that because of her drug issue, my brother and I could hold on to it for her so she doesn’t go blow it. There is about 75 thousand dollars total. Well, a year has passed and my brother and I are fed up being responsible for this money. She is constantly calling asking for more money, even though we agreed on a set budget. Obviously she is going and blowing this money on crack. We don’t usually tell her no because legally, it is her money to do with what she wants. But we are so sick of the lies and deceit and the constant calls. And we are scared that drug dealers will show up at our house because she has told them we have all this money for her but won’t give it to her.
If this were your sibling, or your adult child, would you just give them the whole 75 thousand and let them go blow it on crack?. Even though you know there is a good likelihood it would cause her to overdose and die? Or would you just keep answering the phone calls and give it to her a little bit at a time so she will be less likely to be able to go on a massive binge that will kill her?
My brother and I are so sick of all of this but at the same time, we don’t want to live with the guilt of knowing that she died because we gave her all that money at once.
And she absolutely refuses long term rehab. She went a couple of times to 30 day programs, but she left to smoke crack within a week of getting out.
Is there anyway to get legal control of her money because of her addiction?
Thanks for your help.

My 18 year old son is addicted to crack cocaine. I have tried to watch him; tried threatening; tried cutting off communication; nothing works. He now has stolen from me and he’s sitting in jail. I know he needs treatment, but ppl are saying its a lost cause; some say there is hope and some say he will always use. Is there any hope for recovery? Honestly?
I am 22 years old I am with a guy who is 32. We have been together for a year and we have went through hell. He is emotionally abusive and we both have been physically abusive. I have two kids. He is the father of my son. I was pregnant and he put his hands on me I got a restraining order against him. He has a problem with smoking crack when he is high and drunk he is dangerous. He is in prison now he left me pregnant and went to jail. Now that he is clean he wants to be a father to his 6 week old son. I dont know what to do I dont know how to deal with this. He promises that he will never touch another drug or drink that he just wants a normal life. I dont know if it is jail talk or is he serious… please help me
My son just turned 40 and lives in SC his gf called me earlier and told me he is back on Crack after a few weeks clean. She is in need of help and with him not working they can’t afford a rehab center. He is not using a l but she would like him to get clean and stay clean. She in no way supports his habit he gets with friends and they buy it and all of them smoke it together. There are no minor children involved in this matter but i fear for my son’s life as well as his gf’s safety.
Hello.. this is all brand new to me.. i myself have never seen crack, let alone do it!
my boyfriend of near 7 months has begun to act VERYYYY weird last week… it ended for a lil while, by yesterday of all days! he started it up AGAIN!
what are the signs??? i am thinking he is doing it because before he was with me, he did it and quit cold turkey… during which time he wound up in jail for breaking into a house and stealing stuff…
well i’ve been with him for near 7 months now and i’ve NEVER seen him act the way he’s been acting yesterday/today/last week for a day or 2.
he has coughing fits and then spits up mucus, he cant sleep too well, when he is asleep, he is constantly twitching/tossing/turning.., he is paranoid (he actually went to his shrink a few days ago cuz he said he felt like everyone was out to get him),he looks pale to me, he talks with a stutter and like a weird way to his voice… like he is shaking when he talks, thats what i can best describe it as… also, he asks me the same questions 2 and 3 times within 5 minz of each other…. he is MEAN and telling me he likes other women, and might wanna break up with me, but when i tell him ok im going to pack my stuff and leave, he tells me “no no no, i dont want u to leave, i love u baby, i want u and u only, come here and shut up and kiss me… then he’ll say how he wants a family with me and my son and our own baby together 1 day… i dont get it!!!!
i had my sister pick me up for the night… i am at a lkoss of whats to come with him/what to do…. do u think he’ll come around and text/call me soon? is that how it works when ur doing crack???
someone PLZ inform me… i cant stop crying.. im a wreck… i just want a straight answer from me… weather or not he wants to end things or not… he still hasent told me for sure that we are done… he is toying with me and im going CRAZY!… also, when he first started acting weird, he was out with a few friends and i met up with him later that night and when i hugged him, he smelled like somnething burning, and like bug spray mixed in. i even asked if he was smokin crack, and he told me that i have his word that he’ll never do that again… but that smell was WEIRD! (the ppl he was hanging out with, the persons house they were at, she is a major crack head… i know her)
