Have Questions About Addiction? Ask an Addict!

 I am very concerned about my brother.  I know he does done coke before in the past and have reason to believe that he is doing meth or crack.... I do not know the physical symptoms of either but have heard that it is cheaper than coke so makes me believe this is the case.  Is that generally true?

Well, I am not an addict, but I used to use when I was much younger, and yes that is the case! Coke is top shelf!  (Bar talk)

"Crack" is cocaine. You get the same weight for the same price but the effects of crack last a whole lot less time than cocaine in its powder form so it ends up being way more expensive because the user has to buy more.

Meth Lasts hours longer.

Any one of them will kill you just as dead as the other. The best plan is not to do drugs at all.

In Calgary a hit of crack is 8 bucks. It lasts about 5 minutes and some signs are (from what Ive seen in my ex) you become withdawn and dont want people around. You feel hot and sweaty. You become very quiet and paranoid and cant focus on one thing. The second your done your hit you start looking for ways to get more. I would come home and when I thought he was smoking it in the house I would find porn everywhere and lube. He would keep his eyes open so wide (like that hamster on bedtime stories) and he was very quiet. He couldnt be in the same room as anyone and the smell. He smelled discusting. Like burnt plastic, urine, and chemicals. His hygene would suck and he didnt eat.

I dont know about meth but Im sure Will is right, Will knows everything. What a smart cookie that one is.
