Eventually, I lost all self control... felt like shit, yet once that first line was in my system, I couldn't stop until my body seriously protested. The last night I went overboard I felt an acute sense of impending death. I had an episode akin to paroxysmal tachycardia (a form of arrhythmia consisting of difficulty breathing, chest pain, palpitations, profuse sweating, frequent urination, etc.). Well, I basically frightened myself out of my depression and got a handle on my situation. I mainly just wanted to give some advice on helpful supplements for those either recovering from cocaine use or those who just had one of those nights. Cocaine alters the balance of chemicals in the brain and can cause problems with depression, apathy, endorphin effects, etc. Here are some supplements you may consider taking.
- L-Tyrosine (an amino acid that assists with low levels of dopamine and epinephrine)
-L-Carnitine (assists with brain function)
-LOTS of vitamin B6 (up to 1500% DV)
-Lecithin (a major source of choline, an essential element for healthy brain function)
-Magnesium and Calcium (relaxes muscles and improves nerve function)
-Milk thistle, dandelion root (or anything else that helps cleanse and improve liver function)
-thiamine, niacin, folic acid, potassium, riboflavin, vitamins E,A, C, D, Copper
Keep yourselves healthy and happy! Getting proper nutrition makes a world of difference. Good luck, all.
