  • This video shares my experience of smoking crack and living on the streets of New York City. I discuss the physical sensation of smoking crack and provide a brief overview of the challenges I've encountered while being homeless. Addiction is a serious issue, and I want to emphasize that I'm not trying to diminish its gravity. I apologize for the somewhat cheesy intro; I'm actively striving to make my videos more engaging and enjoyable for viewers.

      I was never really naive. I’ve walked around some really dangerous neighborhoods at 4am and I never had a problem. I’m white but I’m also 6’2” and I grew up in the hood. Spent many nights wandering around Hempstead on Terrace Ave and East New York Brooklyn. Glad I’m still alive.

    I'd like to have all the money back that I spent on crack and cocaine. I'd be a rich man! I've made a lot of money in my life, and I'd say I probably spent over 200 grand on drugs. I do not miss that lifestyle in the least bit! I'm very relieved that it's over, and extremely lucky to be alive. I'll tell you this though, believe it or not, for the 20+ years that I did it, I never one time spent a night in jail, never give my parents a rough time over it, never stole anything to get it, but I spent many times lying in my bed, begging God to take away the pain. Don't do drugs kid's! You may not be as lucky as I am.

      Used to do the same but the only two drugs I refused to ever try during my using days was NO PCP NO CRACK. But everything else was fine. So yeah I used to carpet surf after smoking all my crystal. One time I remembered hiding a shard in my shoe during a smoke sesh with a fellow tweaker cuz I wanted to save some for later without him knowing so I stuck it in the back of my pair of vans I had on. Being so spun out not realizing it would dissolve from my sweaty socks n feet. But once I ran out and was fiending at like 3am with an empty crank bowl. I kid you not. I spent the next 12 hours ripping apart my shoes and tearing apart the soles piece by piece trying to find the shard I hid. once they looked like a pack of pitbulls had torn apart my shoes and still not finding it, I spent the rest of the time carpet surfing for it, thinking it must have just fallen into my carpet fibres after ripping my shoes apart.
      Attempted to vaporize many a crumbs of chips or bread thinking it was crank til it burnt instead of vaporizing into liquid in the bowl. id empty it out n try another piece of bread crumb or whatever the hell i had collected thinking it was crank because after being up for days tweaking, my eyes would get incredibly red bloodshot as HELL with massive black dilated pupils. id basically hallucinate thinking every small white or clear piece of something was actually a shard of crystal. And mind you I hated using meth. My DOC was heroin n all opioids/opiates but the mental addiction and drive for strong stims is bat shit insane.
      Never had I been so ashamed out of all the drugs I abused than I did with Meth.
      Sorry for long post.

    I do enjoy the high but the come down is horrible! I have to drink tequila with salt and lemon and then try to sleep but it takes a while. The high is intense, I do like it, the come down is rough. I also smoke it all alone unless they are also alone and into getting your freak on.

    One blaze we all had there was a dozen of us round a mates house I was around 25 and I’d bought the most! I bought two 50 stones and by the end of the night I was so spun and tweeking off my nut my mate Ben who’s dead now was desperate for another hit and I had some left in my sock and I threw it at him and said smoke up and I left in the morning at around 5am and I had work at 6, put it this way I never made it to work I was so anxious off my head rocking under a cover on my sofa thinking shit man this is the end! I continued to smoke crack on and off until I was around 40!
    Moral of the story do not smoke crack/meth it will ruin you!

      @@RecoveryTalk that is also true. In the beginning when I was abstinent I was sicker than ever. Once I got a program of accountability and started taking direction from others who had changed I could changes before that it was impossible. Anything you need reach out. There are plenty of us who have done this for a while and we too need to stay in the game.
