Problem with cocaine.. is when you use it it your dopamine levels go through the roof. Just for 20 mins. Then you come crashing down. And have none left. Which causes depression and suicidal thoughts. So you end up wanting more coke. But its never the same as the 1st bit. Your constantly chasing that 1st bit. Dopamine is the natural chemical in our brain that gives us happy thoughts. Cocaine just totally messes with this. And you come crashing down when it wears off. Thats why u can feel down for a week after. It takes a while for the dopamine levels to balance again, as the coke has drained them all. Its one big viscous circle.
