I became a crack addict at 27 years old. It was great and fun at first. I had always been extremely shy and had few friends. I blushed a lot and people made fun of me. I was so depressed and embarrassed. Crack made me feel strong and bold. Unfortunately crack took about 20 years from me. I'm 2 years clean at age 50. I don't think I'll touch it ever again. I pray for every soul addicted to it. Ellie. Update - I am almost 2 and a half years clean now. It's 2022 now. I'm still clean and sober. I have no interest in Crack. God bless others still addicted. 2023 still clean. Quitting cold turkey is what I did. Bless you all. 2024 still clean. No interest in Crack.

Hello there hope your still clean. I quit for year and half and I slipped for a few months been two weeks now clean, but it’s so challenging my mind is constantly thinking of it it’s like a never ending battle
I still can't believe that this poison caught me. I'm trying my best. I don't want a bad life or future. I am a addict I am 23 , I pray to let this go very soon.
@@LornaSatchwell being away from it, and spending as much time with family as possible. Doing things to better their self. Your sister is not who she used to be, don't be so hard on her please. Addiction takes over, it's not her please trust.
@@LornaSatchwell I am recovered crack head only way i came clean was from losing everything and having nothing and having one person have hope in me and gave me the chance to better myself.
I just did it all night and all I wanna do is keep doing it but at the same time my logical mind is aware of the circumstances. I'm losing my life, my wife, my home, my social network, my health, my dignity.. i want to stop but i don't want to stop
It’s not a lie that it can happen to anybody. I am 26 years old, educated, in finance field, and from a middle eastern family all living together in a big house. And yet I find time to escape and go do crack. Not only I’m guilty and embarrassed, I am worried that how many people it will hurt if something happened to me, especially my mom. I’ve been addicted to cocaine for 5 years and for the last month I’ve been doing crack. I don’t know why I’m doing this to myself. Why do I not care what it’s doing to me. It’s a real shame
I feel your pain. I still can't find the solution. If you found a solution, please let me know. I can even pay you to get the real knowledge. Really seeking for the right solution/method to overcome this sucker. If you're real and really reaching out or seeking the answer, know that you're not the only one.
@@ms.worldwide2007 I really hope you found a way to conquer this. I'm all ear, and very open to try. I ran out of ideas. I'm tired of failing. At this point, I am open to any suggestion. Could not do it on my own, it's suck but I gave up
Try Alcoholics Anonymous. To find a sponsor and a new community. AA is the grand daddy of recovery programs and can help you with support and companionship to escape that hellish drug. My friend just died about two weeks ago after years on crack.
I have been an addict for awhile now. 4 years. & I really want to stop & better myself. Made a promise to be sober by the time 2021 comes around. It's Dec. Doc heroin & crack. Pray for me, I hope God can forgive me for being so foolish & wasting my potential. I hope I can win this battle, this is no life to live. Hard drugs are nothing but misery.
If addicts really want to quit and I mean REALLY,,,then they'll put themselves through whatever hell that have to in order to get clean,,,, anyone who relapses doesn't really want to stop,,,,and I'm sorry this sounds harsh but I don't have any sympathy for people who don't want to quit
ur right that’s why they go back because they want the drug it’s not an active choice it’s rather logical but the only way to stop is to truly not want it anymore i think a good analogy would be if someone eats only potatoes for life and is then given the best meal on earth naturally they will not be content with the potatoes and will always want the meal especially if it’s a phone call away but magnified
you’re some what right yes u won’t quiet unless u truly want to but i don’t think anyone deep in addiction necessarily wants to be there there’s a lot of factors if u have a support system, resources, is someone around u pushing u to use, withdrawals ofc & the mental part more than anything is the hardest most addicts have trauma that their self medicating saying u have no sympathy is unfair and the reason why not a lot of people get help all it takes is one ignorant comment like this to hurt someone or 1 positive comment to encourage them. saying “sorry if this sounds harsh”& continuing to say the most ignorant & unsympathetic comment doesn’t cancel it out btw.
Way to go y'all 💪 You don't have to become a Christian, but faith in SOMETHING, anything, will change your entire life! I promise, & I know because I'm 534 days clean today. Don't suffer in silence. You are not alone.
How I know if my bf is a addict I know he drinks a lot . but he also tends to stay out said a lot for about three days and want to come sleep all day eat and use the bathroom as in boo boo don't help with any bills ,food ,hygein household items just eat ,sleep boo,boo he work but I don't see we're the money going I got to the point I can't tolerate him I want him to leave my house he try everything he can to stay even if I call the police cause of the Dv the disrespect and his entitled attitude I just don't want to be with him anymore I really believe he on crack
That is a very difficult answer. Being one myself, on day 4 of being up straight. To be forward you have to let them do what they are going to do, only the user can decide themselves. I have love hate with it. It is like being with a really bad partner husband or wife stuck to you. You can message me if you have any questions. Wish you and the individual the best.
@james jones Mr. James Jones, started from maryjane to booze to extacy to cocaine. Then nose essentially gave up on me. Over a ball a day for many years. Left me with a gushing nose after a few hollys. Then picked up the brillo. Still at war currently.
My husband I just married this year who was my bf of a year fell into a crack addiction while I was gone for two months, he was using blow in parties often before but nothing has topped what’s going on now, it’s days of being awake, running around, being aggressive, stealing from me, money, phones, bikes, TVs disappearing in our house and his parents house...I’m constantly afraid I’m gonna get stolen from I have to hide our cash or keep it at a friends house. When he’s home it’s a few days of sleeping 20 hours a day, eating in bed watching TV and complaining about body pains, he calls them days of being sober and not using but they are just days of recovery, sleeping it off after his body crashes until he can smoke again...He assures he loves me and wants to get better, he said he’s gonna start his own business with his parents help, I can’t possibly help financially with that after all he money I spent and los this year, he’s most of the time very sweet and still my best friend and the attraction is still there but the connection is suffering a lot. I started really;y wondering if he loves me in any form at all I’m lost and I don’t know what to do
@@sogracie3420 you gotta be kidding me right? the longer you stay with him, the more time u waste. The guy is forever gone. i dont know why u would even be with him when he was doing blow at parties,that shoild told you about the type of decision he makes. crack addiction is a life long battle so even when he is clean, there can still be relapse. Is that the type of man u want around your kids? Your kids will have to go through so much b.s & stress till he dies because of him. Save yourself the trouble & leave him for good, trust me & dont say i didnt warn u.

Crack makes me/people more skanky. Gotta watch that Rock like a Hawk + just the general lifestyle goes to 👎. Wouldn't ever do it without DownerS in place + around certain others who'll eg: snatch it & run or be in the Bog most of the time etc! LOL wonder why eh! Can't say will never Smoke it again as have 'in Sobriety' so NEVER say never/will "Keep it in the Day" (as NA say) or 'chicken scratching' before know it.😈 (Vid' appreciated.👍)
Addicts always get praise for recovery, what about people that never tried that poison? Addicts are pathetic. Should've that about God before the pipe.
how ignorant can you be? anybody who has had an addiction and overcome it is 10x stronger than someone whose never had one. it's so much to endure mentally and physically.
@kenziee1970 To who? The addict? See, addicts should be praised for running from their problems, putting love ones through misery, etc. Forget that everyone has issues. It's all about how you address them. My difference of opinion doesn't make me or anyone else ignorant. You must be addict, with your holier than thou disposition. Most addicts are weak followers.
You can never beat coke addiction, once an addict always an addict. You can stop but that doesn’t change the fact that the drug rewires your brain to be an addict for life

I know this all to well. My wife is a stripper. We smoke crack with them often. A few months ago we smoked meth. Liked it but crack is our thing.
Do I have to put a warning label on the crack I sell in the USA like tobacco companies do. When they sell their controlled substances
Or nicotine vape pens or nicotine gum.
what does that have to do w anything? also nicotine isn’t good yes but let’s not compare it to crack?
I have been clean for six months now from cocaine it's possible hang in there
