Health - Have any SWIY's had "strange" halucinations on CRACK????

[Gappa]

MOD EDITED : please watch the self incrmination, 3 sentences were self-incriminating

------------------------

My clone used to do a ton of crack but he hasn't done it in around a year or so. They say that cocaine is the "Devil's drug". That said my clone used to have "strange" reactions to it and wondering if any other clones have had similar experiences. The paranoia was extreme to say the least but SWIM used to see things walking by underneath the bathroom door even there was nobody else around. Hear voices, hear things back inside of walls. SWIM used to own an old condo in Virginia and could hear things like peoples footsteps up in the attic, would search frantically, even tore out a wall and found passages.. SWIM was convinced people or something was traveling through the structure. People had seen other strange things too but SWIM won't go into that. SWIM often pondered this whenever SWIM was sober if it were possible for this drug to open parts of the mind to spiritual or more likely demonic realms. Any thoughts or similar experiences????

Whatsa matter you SWIY's too shy to admit you may have had similar experiences???
I know SWIM is very well balanced mentally if that's what you're thinking.

Swim knew a fiend who would hear people who weren't there, but he was definately off-kilter, especially high.

Both IV coke and smoking crack made him absolutely nuts. Extreme paranoia, pacing, locking all doors/windows, imagining cops were outside, about to raid him, or helicopters were overhead.

Swim has never heard of anyone getting hallucinations from cocaine or any derivatives thereof.

A halucination is anything the mind perceives real however small while under the influence.
That sounds about like what SWIM and his ex-craker-jack friend would get like. My buddy and SWIM used to hole up in a hotel room for days on end and the more time went by the worse it got... To the point of either of us getting so paranoid and scared the cops were right outside getting ready to bust the door in. And end up flushing... The last festival he ended up screaming to SWIM "THEYRE COMING!! GET RID OF IT" I really thought he was serious so SWIM flushed. Anybody ever get so paranoid they "FLUSHED" their shit???????
I consider myself of quite sound mind but SWIM experiences actual paranoid psychotic episodes when he used to "fry the chicken"lol . Move over bacon ITS SIZZLEEAN!!

5 legged rat That is some funny shit! I'm laughing my ass off! The part about it making him "absolutely nuts"

[bupaddict]

When SWIM was a crack addict, he was always paranoid but it wasnt as bad untill he got really addcited and increased his Crack intake. he would smoke his Crack in his bedroom sat down in the middle of the room with his bottle, he would constantly pace around his room in circles, or walk up and down the stairs after a big hit.

Sometimes he thought he could hear something outside his bedroom stood there, or hear someone whisper behind him and hear footstep creaks, hes even thought he heard door knocks on occasions and swears it was real, SWIM too thought he unleashed something from the dark side.

[Gappa]

My clone is very familiar with the whispers and right after that big blast the ring and it kinda sounds like a jet flying overhead. And then the whispering and voices.. After that the paranoia and fiddling. Swims buddy used to take things apart and try to wire up cameras and all kinds of strange tasks while pacing, feverishly sweating with those stupid "cottonmouth" white corners on the edges of his lips. That is very similar to the Methamphetamine junkies... The owners of motels started to be able to figure out who was using speed in their rooms because they would go in after the junkies left and find EVERYTHING dismantled. lol
SWIM has not used speed in 4 years or so or any cocaine product in several years. SWIM could work his azz off but figured out that these were too dangerous to use for any length of time. Now swim has 2 boys and could not even think about doing anything to hurt them like using stimulants. SWIM owns a business now and cannot afford to be crashed in bed for several days after the comedown.

Nice one gappa mate swim to have been that wired on crack that swim could not sit still for some reason swim thought the police were outside swims window and were on to him every shaddow every noise and bang swim was in a pannic hide the stash quick!!! but swim can not forgive you for flushing de gear

[Gappa]

Da flush was his buddys fault. SWIwe were in a hotel room and he's out front and started screaming flush it they're here they're here!! SWIM didn't know what was going on and ain't about to go get locked up for NOT flushing. Needless to say SWIM was really pissed to find out he was just geeked.

[Rainbowzz]

SWIM hasn't done coke in a very long time, and never did much of it, but it DEFINETLY made vision blurry, and made things seem to breath and waver a bit. So not full on hallucinations or anything like that but definete visual disturbance.

[Gappa]

paranoia????

[DopinDan]

Once SWIM was smoking freebase in his bedroom, long, long ago.

He got really hopped up and started getting paranoid. His brother in reality was watching tv downstairs in the basement.

SWIM thought that his mother and grandfather knew what he was doing, and were having a conversation about whether to intervene or not. He heard his mom say "If he takes one more hit we will call the police and intervene"

Well of course since their base base left eventually he had to take that hit.

He believed he heard a "That's it!" and the sirens of the cops coming.

He ran upstairs into his mom's bedroom to beg her not to call the cops and turn him in.

He found her sleeping and out of it, it was all in his head.

[Rainbowzz]

Dude, my friend swim has only done a meager amount of cocaine in her life BUT....

it has almost always everytime given her subtle hallucinations.. not full out hallucinations, but definete breathing and warping and such.

[hork]

Check out this book, it's called Whispers: The Voices of Paranoia, ALOT of stories about this very thing in it, very fun to read if you're into other people tripping out... Hallucinations from stimulants is very real.

[deflower]

everything you guys are reffering to is the coke phsycosis, its when you are either on too much cocaine or have been awake for too long.

swim stayed up for 2 days and picked up a half ounce and went to hisbuddies house to weight it up and package it and chill with old friends. everything was fine until a couple hours later and they are all fiending and already spent all their money on my blow. so swims chilling there with 2 grand in his wallet plus like 12grams of soft left.

swim remember seeing them trying to conceal knives and screwdrivers and whispering to eachother then looking at swim. swim basically freaked the fuck out and ran out to town and went into a 711 bathroom, and he heard footsteps follow him and swim heard voices outside the door saying 'okay hes trapped' evenetually he opened the door and went home.

swim's friends the next day said he just randomyly ran out and everyone was like uhhhh wtf

When SWIM overdosed, for the next 2 days he was seeing stuff. He had also taken a ton of pills which had torched his liver and left him very close to death by dehydration, so he knows the coke was not likely able to process out of his body and that played into the length of the hallucinations.

To describe the experience, he literally had a 48-hour attack of paranoia of crack dealers trying to kill him. Anything in the room could transform into a man with an axe, gun, etc. Also, the coke kept SWIM from becoming so tired that he could not stay awake, so he was stuck awake for 2 days thinking everything was trying to kill him. SWIM will never smoke crack again (although SWIM will try powder again if the time and place are right).

At a later date, after more experiences with different drugs, SWIM has come to the conclusion that the coke and/or crack was most likely highly cut with amphetamines. Some of SWIM's later amphetamine comedowns would have identical effects to a much lesser degree. Now, armed with both personal experience and knowledge gathered from this forum, SWIM is 99% sure that the majority of the detrimental side effects were not from cocaine or crack at all, but rather were a combination of amphetamine psychosis, sleep deprivation, and a reaction to what has turned out to be the most traumatic event of SWIM's life. Be careful, know the effects of the drug SWIY is supposed to be taking as well as what it may be cut with, and purify street drugs whenever possible (especially coke).

[crackergrrl]

Yes, FOF has reported seeing wonderful visual hallucinations with some batches of crack, scary aural hallucinations with others (the sounds of people talking when no one was in the room - very freaky she said)... and after extended periods of IV use, freakish visuals like piles of laundry shifting around, curtains blowing in an otherwise imperceptible breeze, and the sensation of being infested by insects. From what I hear, it's best to know your surroundings and don't party with others who get really freaked out over hearin strange noises or seeing strange things - the "tweak" can rub off on you. She's since stopped shooting but still indulges in smoking rock on occasion and has reported a substantial decline in such episodes.

[someone111]

swim prefers cocaine over crack, so he dont use crack often..... but swim does ofter wonder if he has halucations on cocaine.... some of the odd shit he see's while on cocaine, just seems to strange to be real lol

[usedagain]

SWIM used to think fbi were always outside....but that fear suddenly changed to a snake paranoia. Now he sees snakes everywhere, in the shadows, under the rugs, etc. Have you ever heard of anyone changing like that? And what to do about it? I think he might just have to stop.

[InTheCity]

SWIM has been currently experiencing this all night. Hes probably gone through about a gram and a half, 4 or 5 beers, and 3 nice spliffs. The paranoia is so severe if SWIM catchs anything out of the corner of his eye (and SWIM always does somehow) SWIM just has to sit there and stare in that direction until hes sure nothing or noones there. But it gets worse, once SWIM fixes his eyes on that spot and is just waiting, random objects will start to shift or distort slightly enough to make SWIM break his eye contact with what he was stareing at originally, and then the whole process repeats.

edit: Like SWIM actually believes he can see someone in his backyard or on his patio right now

edit2: God damn now theres a red and a green laser pen pointing in his eyes no matter where he looks, and his eyes actually start to sting if he doesnt keep moving his head

[junkville]

swim got so used to the imaginary demons, he started talking to them like they were his friends, until he realized they were only there to steal his dope!

[BoxStar]

In SWIM experience, after slamming coke all day long for 3 days with no sleep the paranoia turns into psychosis and eventually SWIY will feel the “coke bugs” which is something hard to describe but feels somewhat like being naked and covered with ants. SWIM has also seen people in shadows or dark rooms and even talked with them and he also experienced many of the things already mentioned.

[usedagain]

Well SWIM has decided to stop...again. That stuff is no fun. Isn't there a chance of this turning into permanent psychosis?

The snake thing happened the other day after just a small bit. SWIM was on top of the table. No fun.

[freebirdbulker]

swim used to get severe bouts of what Boxstar said with the shadow people. swim would see shadows in his peripherals and constantly be looking to the left and to the right and behind. and swim used to live in a building with other people in it, and people would be above him walkin around and one could hear their footsteps and after smoking crack, swim would freak out thinking that they were walking around calling the cops or could hear swim smoking. on several occasions, swim locked his front door, bed room door, closet door and laid in bed and pulled his covers over him completely bc he was so paranoid because he could hear people walking down the hallway of his building and he was worried it was gonna be cops. that was usually after heavy use (start smoking in the morning and by late afternoon the paranoia would be at this level)
