What You Should Know About About Cocaine, Blow, Substance Abuse

 

Most people already know about cocaine and crack, but did you know that crack is also known as poor man's cocaine? It's called poor man's cocaine because it's made from low-grade cocaine and this is cheaper. Unlike its high-end cousin which is snorted by users, crack is melted on a tin foil and then smoked with a pipe.

If you have any sense within you, you already know that drugs are always bad for you health, but it's even worse in the case of cocaine. Even first time users are at risk of death because of its side effects which include increased high blood pressure and heart rate. However, many people still take it anyway. Why? For a number of reasons. Peer pressure, extreme curiosity and lingering emotional pain are factors that can drive people to addiction.

You don't actually get addicted the first time you use crack or cocaine, however, because of their side effects or that “high” feeling or being in other realms, people seek them again and again to relive their experience until their body develops a real physical craving for the drug.

That said, drug addictions can actually be prevented when people see that there are other ways they can be happy, like meditation and keeping themselves busy.

Among our leaders, there are many who took used cocaine and other drugs. Probably the most famous admitted user is President Barack Obama who in his memoirs candidly admitted that he used drugs to cope with the pain of not seeing his father growing up. Other politicians who admitted to using drugs include Toronto Mayor Rob Ford and New York Governor David Paterson.

Other politicians who allegedly used cocaine and other drugs include George W. Bush and former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
