I've been taking cocaine an alcohol together most weekends during the past few months. I was doing it last night and now feel more worried and paranoid than usual. Kind of wondering whether I made an ass of myself while on it lol. Does anyone else take this or has taken it in the past and how does/did it affect you? I'm thinking about stopping it it can't be good for SA.

I don't know, and I'm not one to talk, because I'd probably try drugs too if I knew where the hell to get the damn things(!), but I don't think it can be good for your anxiety....especially coke.

I use to take coke and E's every weekend,you probaly did make an ass out of yourself,but just as much as everyone else did.Your just worrying now youve come back down to earth.Stuff like coke can be so tempting because it makes us feel normal,but in the long run its going to make you more paranoid and anxious.

If you are going to illegaly obtain drugs to self-medicate, why not try to get your hands on Xanax or something of the like that is specifically anti-anxiety?
Forgive me if this is a stupid question, I'm am not familiar with the illegal drug thing at all.

While I wouldnt advise anyone to take stuff they arnt perscribed,thats actually a really good point.Xanax can be addictive if abused but isnt going to mess you up like coke.

I've done alcohol and tried cocaine a few times, the last being 2006. Too much money and trouble for me.

What kind of stuff are we talking about?
I wouldn't, if you start relying on it to get you through the day then it might turn out to be a habit that's too hard to kick in the end.

While drugs are and have been a great temporary cure for my anxiety, the fact remains that it is temporary and in my experience they usually make things worse. Mixing coke with alcohol is quite common and feels great when you are doing it but the truth is you cant continue using the combo to escape your anxiety because every time you sober up, cant afford the drugs or whatever, the anxiety is always there and it is usually a lot worse...at least in my experience. I used to heavily self medicate with alcohol almost every night and still have problems with it and when I sober up I feel really depressed and more anxious because like you said I am constantly wondering if i made an ass out of myself and asking myself what negative opinions my peers developed about me due to my actions. I have also dabbled with a good amount of Opiates and they definitely take away the anxiety but I am to the point where i do not want to continually rely on drugs and alcohol as a crutch so i would recommend against it.

I have never had to rely on drugs to help me survive a day, though for your situation you have my condolences. If it is truly so unbearable that you must use that substance. You have my best wishes for you. I would not recommend that you take the drugs, or at least lessen the doses as you use this forum as a place to vent your stress, anger, despair, whatever it may be. Try to rely less on that drug and find people you can talk to so that you may feel understood and cared for.

I would just smoke weed, I see not much harm really, not really a drug. I smoked for about the last 2 years straight everyday and I first smoked in middle school but only every now and then. Now I'm tryin to kick the habit cause as some seen I'm tryin whatever I can to change my life. It's only been 3 days without taking a hit and I'm craving but gotta fight through it, I just got way too lazy and paranoid lol. But I don't consider it a drug so I dunno what to tell you. I almost tried coke once but changed my mind, almost got jumped by some gangters once though becuase I wouldn't hit that crystal meth back in high school. I would rather take the ass whoopin than get hooked on that shit though.
As I say my best friend from childhood got into coke and E heavy and turned into a different person and we aren't in touch at all and he's a very shady person now and that's why I turned it down so while I'm not sayin to not have your fun, don't get hooked man. Cause I wouldn't tell anyone how to live there life becuase I've made a lot of dumb mistakes. but yeah my advice is to not **** with it becuase I seen the downfall from it.

Ya I really enjoy Oxycodone. I prefer chewing the time release Oxycontin form because it is strong and there isnt so much acetominophen (spelling?). I have also tried those fentanyl patches which are scary but i wore it like you were supposed to. I also like hydrocodone but it isnt as strong so i have to take more in order to feel anything.

Forget what i said, i wouldn't do drugs again. i never took them as anything other than recreational help, but i haven't touched anything in years, and i don't think i will again! i mean being sensible, it would be stupid!
been there done that worn the hat.
people hate advice, even I was warned by my mate who was older and wiser, I ignored until it was too late. drugs mess up normal people, if you have an already troubled mind they make things even worse.
everything in moderation is about all I could advise, as most people like to experiment
