A drug addict who needs advice........
I only want coke when I drink, and it only takes 2ndrinks now.
The drink makes me a coke head, the coke makes me an alcoholic, coke lets you drink twice as much for those who don’t know.
HOW DO I FIX THIS WITHOUT QUITTING DRINKING, when your will power sucks
I work for a hedge fund to pay for the coke. I Just can’t do anything in small doses
Bump for a high coke addict
You have to stop drinking. It fucks with your impulse control. Addicts who recover successfully have figured this out. No advice here is going to save you. You have to do the hard, but necessary work to recover.
t. Addict, clean and sober almost 7 months
This op
I'm at 9 months. Go to an AA meeting i actually look forward to going now
Stop drinking you pathetic fuck
Even if drinking isn’t my issue? Can I learn to drink without wanting coke?
Because I can drink and know my limit until I do coke
Yes sir you fixed my problems thx
The program works if you work it. If you have no friends, or if your friends are judgmental, you should absolutely attend meetings. pay attention to your thoughts when you do. If you think “this is bullshit” or “these people are week” then you need to find therapy, because the program won’t work if you don’t think it will.
Congrats on 9 months sober, btw.
that wasn’t op. NO AA MEETINGS JUST WINGING IT
Drinking IS your issue. If you don’ttoot Without it, then you already know how to stop doing lines. You are lying to yourself. This is very common with addicts. Just admit that you don’t really want to quit, then accept that you are going to have to stop drinking in order to do so.
Just think about it this way.
Either of them separately ain’t the worst thing you can put in your body. But mixed together it creates a different chemical that really fucks up your heart. That’s really what kills people.
Soooo if you don’t want to die, sack the fuck up
How do you explain to friends and family you’re quitting drinking? Makes you look like you’ve had a problems. I suppose I don’t really want anyone to know, Also my family’s has a big drinking culture
Both together is how 90% of people do it. Sadly worst thing is the come downs and that’s normally when suicide with druggy celebs normally happens
Hey wait a minute OP, are you me?
Best part of coke......I can drink all night
AA doesn't fucking work. Nothing makes me want to drink more than sitting around with a bunch of pathetic losers talking about wanting to drink. Plus the 12 steps are bullshit forcing fucking jesus on you.
So I take it god didn’t grant you the serenity to accept the things you can not change? Lol
Hope for your sake no. IM No longer high functioning
Well you've already admitted that it is a problem. Your family should hopefully understand. Are they supportive of you generally?
Do what Phil Anselmo did when he quit hard drugs.
Ask yourself: "Am I really going to let this control my life?"
(Not saying it does control your entire life, but it obviously does have some control over you.)
It most likely won't make you quit cold turkey, but constantly asking yourself that and reminding yourself of the uncontrollable nature of these impulses will make you think about it more as an illness than a behavior. That'll gross you out about it. That'll eventually make you change.
Yup, it's called cocaethylene. Powerful drug, but also a cardiotoxin.
Combining drugs is generally a terrible idea.

I wish it was that easy bro.COKE HAS NO PHYSICAl WITHDRWAL symptoms just mental ones
Drinking and coke make that? Without me googling, how does that effect the body/ BRAIN
Ahhh jesus you could switch to opioids...
Basically when your liver metabolizes cocaine, if there's alcohol present, it produces cocaethylene.
It feels reeeeeeally good, but it's also way the fuck more dangerous than cocaine and alcohol by themselves.
I couldn't tell ya if it's a depressant, a stimulant, a hallucinogenic, or a dissociative, because Wikipedia says it's all of those.
Which is dumb as fuck. I’m guilty of it too but once I found that out I knocked that shit off
cont. from Neurologically, it's more likely to affect dopamine transference to the brain than coke or alcohol.
t. Have repeatedly drank alcohol while on coke, the most recent episode of which was only a few weeks ago.
This It’s the euphoria feeling. Kicks ass. SUPER bad for your heart
I got addicted to pot and alchohol, until I quit alchohol
then I no longer craved pot as much
I can think so much clearly now, and now I can take pretty big doses of weed without feeling like shit
moral of the post; quit alchohol and then you'll be able to withstand longer periods with less coke, hopefully atleast
I need to find some coke screw the alcohol I just like a little pickmeup before dancing
Most common drug interactions that cause death as well. If you google cocaethylene there’s some wild stuff.
Try a pepsi, it's not that bad.
You just have to decide which is more important to you. Taking care of yourself, or perpetuating a drinking culture for other people.
Another HORRIBLE combination is GHB and alcohol. Most GHB-related deaths are caused by mixing GHB with alcohol.
t. Almost OD'ed on mixing GHB, cocaine, and Four Loko
That explains a lot of things
I spent 2 weeks in Colombia doing coke and drinking every day, pretty fun experience but sleeping after doing both was impossible
