    I'm actively trying to help the love of my life quit this disgusting habit and it's one of the most challenging things I've ever had to go through. I constantly feel heartbroken while showering him with love at the same time. I know it's tough on him, but watching someone you love literally poisoning themselves when all you can do is just stand there and hope your loving words make a difference is truly painful and devastating and I feel so helpless.

    My use has escalated to a severe level. I’ve been using daily for 2 years and I’ve told myself that it’s time to stop. I’m moving to a new city for work and I am going to a 12 step meeting as soon as I arrive.

    I had a really close friend. I unfortunately had to cut out of my life. When he was using I could support him, but when he started dealing I had to cut ties. When I explained this to him he became such a vicious person. I still worry about him constantly, but I just couldn't be associated with him. It hurts me deeply.

    In Brazil even Bozo the clow (one of them, on live TV) was addicted to cocaine in the 80s. The last episode he recorded was when his nose started bleeding on the backstage, and he had to stuff his nose with cotton, below his red nose, in order to finish that day.
    Thanksfully, the man managed to recover and quick the addiction for good.

      That's a poignant story. It's striking how public figures, even those in roles as light-hearted as a clown on a children's TV show, can struggle with serious issues like addiction. It's heartening to hear that he managed to overcome his addiction and recover. Stories like this are reminders of the human side of entertainment and the pressures that can come with it.

      Thank you for sharing your story. It's incredibly difficult to watch someone you care about struggle with substance use, especially when you're going through a tough time yourself. Cocaine can change a person’s behavior, making them seem distant or uncaring. It's important to remember that his actions are likely influenced by the drug. If you or your friend need support or more information, please call us at (844) 590-0403. We're here to help.

      It turns them into zombies with one-track minds
      My 28 year old son is a coke addict and he has lost all his friends, drained his bank account, and his job is looking dodgy now.
      When my mother died, he was like a trapped animal at the funeral. Relatives wanted to talk to him and catch-up with his life plans, but he wasn’t interested. I saw him in the corner on his phone, ordering an uber then he was gone. Didn’t come back home for 3 days, still wearing the same clothes. I’ve taken him to the GP and to therapists, but he says he will stop only when he is ready. I want to kick him out of my house, but I fear for his safety. He ain’t a tough guy
      We are all victims of this evil curse. I don’t believe the governments even try to eradicate the trade from society, they just let it happen.

      Thank you for your comment. Actually, cocaine typically causes pupils to dilate, or enlarge, which is a common effect of stimulants.
