Cocaine. Is it fatal to people with small capillaries

[Valhalla1]

here's a good read

Using baking soda to FREE the cocaine BASE from cocaine hydrochloride (regular cocaine) results in a substance people call crack.
Using ammonia (and ether) to FREE the cocaine BASE from cocaine hydrochloride (regular cocaine) results in a substance people call freebase cocaine.

...if one were to smoke cocaine as is, there would be too much waste. Some people do smoke cocaine as is, but it is much more efficient to freebase or make crack.

oh and for the earlier suggestion to "inject crack"

Never inject crack or freebase cocaine, it can cause a heart attack or stroke. Both of which will probably kill you.

I said alcoholic (or at least implied it by saying drunk). Take the pot/cocaine/crack/LSD/whatever away from the drug user, they get really sick; take the alcohol away from an alcoholic, and they have a much higher chance of dying.

There're no physical withdrawl symptoms associated with pot, as it's not a physically addicitve drug in the first place. Many other drugs, nicotine, alcohol, and heroin among them, are chemically addictive. Pot is as addictive as anything else you do for pleasure; reading, watching tv, browsing ATOT 😛, etc.

Edit: the physical withdrawl symptoms associated with heroin are probably the worst out there. The shakes and extreme nausea are common and withdrawl can be fatal. Haven't you see The Basketball Diaries? 😛

But the heroin addict will recover. An alcoholic quitting cold fish will most likely die from the increase in brain activity.
