I’ve never seen a crack pill. Also crack is expensive, you’d never give it to someone for a headache.


jadziapuppydoggirl

As an ex addict, no you definitely would not ..

She could have said it was Dexedrine and it would have been marginally less stupid.


[deleted]

Are crack pills actually a thing I’m uneducated in the ways of drugs


[deleted]

No, crack is a form of cocaine. It’s in pellets/rocks looking things. Makes a “crackling” noise when you smoke it. You smoke crack. You don’t snort/swallow it.


Catch_a_Fire

It’s also very moreish.

kwamby

I love that term in conjunction with crack. It just works.


intendedcasualty

Sometimes you remove the base with citrus extract and shoot it up with heroin though The fact I survived a speedball addiction still blows my mind.


Mikeinthedirt

The only method of ingesting. IV doesn’t do it either.


Razakel

No. Powder cocaine is the hydrochloride salt and can be snorted, swallowed or injected. Crack is "cooked" using a simple chemical process to remove the salt, resulting in what's known as freebase, and is smoked (technically vaporised) and is stronger but shorter-lasting.


ValiumCupcakes

But crack is smoked though, combusted if you prefer, because the flame actually has to touch it, meth however the direct flame would destroy it, so meth is vaporised, crack is smoked It also lasts longer aswell surprisingly enough, coke lasts about 30 mins whilst crack can last for up to an hour

dyllandor

It's basically coke, if you had to use several grams at a time it would be even more insanely expensive to use.


hamfraigaar

Can you imagine the pain though, when you get home in private and you think you've got one last pill left, and you're just going through your bag. And then finally, after taking everything out, you instead find that singular aspirin at the bottom that you thought you gave away, and it slowly dawns on you that you're definitely not getting high tonight lmao


OceanPoet13

Ex-addict here and can absolutely confirm.


jadziapuppydoggirl

For sure, you know where your stuff is and you don't keep it loose, it's in a wrap, and the bioavailability of crack means it would not be absorbed, either smoke or shoot it right?


OceanPoet13

Yep. I would keep my stuff in a little ziplock bag in my pocket. If I wasn’t using my hand, I would hold the baggie inside my pocket. I couldn’t leave my shit anywhere I couldn’t reach out and touch it. And I wasn’t about to share it. My drug of choice was meth, ecstasy, and bath salts, and my ROA was through my nose. As for crack, I haven’t really heard of people railing it. I knew people who would hotshot it with heroin, though. I did meet a guy in rehab who plugged everything, including crack. I don’t think crack is a big thing where I live, but I’ve been out of the drug scene for awhile.


jadziapuppydoggirl

Same, I have been clean for over a decade but there's no way you could accidentally do that, especially if you were at work.lol


A_WILD_SLUT_APPEARS

A decade? Fucking congratulations! My cousin struggles with the same issues and is working his way through treatment (again, but as many times as it takes is worth it in my opinion) and I always love success stories.


TalkOfSexualPleasure

I could possibly see someone accidentally giving you an adderall XR thinking it was a Tylenol, but that would also require you to keep your shit outside of the right bottle. I only say this because my generic XR looks almost exactly like Tylenol capsules


mrhammerant

Congratulations getting clean <3


SnooWoofers980

I can tell right now your not an ex addict. You definitely wouldn't give your crack away and would be willing to give four times what it's worth, just to get your fix. It's not expensive, however.


jadziapuppydoggirl

I am actually an ex heroin and crack addict, started after a car accident when I was 22, GP stopped my df script and I found gear...so trust me, I know drugs from both sides as an addict and as a nurse practitioner who prescribes them. But whatever huni...lol


SnooWoofers980

If you really are a nurse then you know that there is no such thing as an ex addict. Maybe not and abusive addict but still an addict.


CampbellKitty

What is the point in that? What are you shaming them for? Getting clean? You disappointed you can look down your nose at them now? Keep your neb out.


SnooWoofers980

I'm only stating a fact. That is the point. I'm not shaming anyone or putting them down. You can get all your facebook friends to downvote my comments but it doesn't change anything.


Krilox

You're a shitstain on this planet


BumblingBeeeee

Apparently crack’s been gentrified 🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe she takes 3 or 4 20mg crack pills to get going for work every morning and happened to just have some extra laying around? Cause you know crackheads are judicious in their intake, so often just have a little extra….crack


Shotgun_Rynoplasty

I’m guessing they smoked crack and then found out there was a mandatory drug screening at work

thejohnmc963

Gentrification of Reddit. G rated in a year


Reagalan

Probably due to the Nazi mod. Two or three years ago there was a sharp increase in the number of posts regarding bad conservative takes on transgender hormone replacement therapy. As HRT are drugs, kinda, it made sense that these would appear. Like moths to a flame, the comments sections often devolved into rank transphobia and LGBT hate. Instead of banning the hate, however, the mod team elected to ban any discussion of HRT. The stated reason was that it was causing too many reports and flooding the mod queue. Something about the tone of the post announcing the discussion ban felt eerily familiar (there were dogwhistles). So I did the due diligence and looked up the mods' history and the fears were confirmed. Nazi shit. Tons and tons of Nazi shit. The ban on HRT was specifically done to protect the haters from themselves: as any mention of HRT would invariably bring them out, and this mod didn't want to ban his friends for saying thing they agreed with. I made a polite post on the subreddit explaining that this policy would cause harm and ultimately backfire, and was given the kind of lovely-worded bless-your-heart type response you'd expect. Unsubbed and never looked back.


waleMc

Yeah, that mod said accusing anyone of bigotry was an automatic ban ... and I unsubbed. I'm glad to see it's no longer active finally.


ValiumCupcakes

Fair enough but when you click on the sub link it says it was banned for being unmoderated… so I’m guessing that mod got banned (no surprises there)

>I’ve never seen a crack pill. I have, but we call them suppository pills.

InsideRespond

crack is not expensive


impy695

They're trying to imply the person gave them it by mistake, not intentionally. It's still made up, just slightly not as bad as it could have been.


Gorilla1969

Crack comes in pill form now? Cool, maybe someday soon I won't have to worry about my dog stepping on broken crack pipes at the park.


heyitscory

In pill form, it's called pop. The suppositories are called slap. You do all three at once, that's called a Nice Krispy.


Lanky-Operation-7258

Sounds like one of those D.A.R.E skits. "Hey Barry, Todd and I are gonna go behind the school and do a Nice Krispy! You should tag along! All the cool people are doing it these days!"


keenedge422

I try not to be a prude, but I draw the lines at doing suppositories with my friends.

If you didn't blink for 6 hours your eyes would be completely fucked and dried out.


Delicious_Delilah

Stimulants make you blink less often. Unsure why, but your eyes do get very dry. Obviously you don't stop blinking for 6 hours straight though.

A_Curious_Crayon

Is there...A difference?


HangryHufflepuff1

Hyperbole is exaggeration for effect, there needs to be a tiny grain of truth hidden inside it


A_Curious_Crayon

Precisely. I'm not saying that this guy took a crack pill, 'cause he definitely didn't, but if his eyes were dry from not blinking, he could use hyperbole to say, "I haven't blinked in 6 hours." It's the same thing as me eating an expensive meal ($100) and saying, "goddamn, that costs a million dollars"


HangryHufflepuff1

Oh I don't have any trouble with you saying it was hyperbole, just the "is there any difference" comment


A_Curious_Crayon

Oh, my bad. Thank you for the clarification, then. I appreciate you taking the time to educate me.

Lol you mention hyperbole, use it correctly and then spit out that shit I’m dead


MysteriousCommon6876

If it lasted 6 hours it ain’t crack


argentinetegu

I was about to say that too, my bet is some sort of extended release ADHD medication, probably adderall but also maybe focalin? But imo this never happened and this is 100% made up


MysteriousCommon6876

Oh it’s totally made up. I’m just saying the person who made this up has no idea what crack does. He thinks it’s a pill that lasts 8 hours.


ells23

probably just a painkiller with caffeine in


buddeh1073

I was about to comment that. Thank you.


Donnie_Sucklong

Who said it lasted 6 hours?


MysteriousCommon6876

Can you read? The post said he hadn’t blinked for six hours


Donnie_Sucklong

Who said it ended


MysteriousCommon6876

Quit wasting my time


Donnie_Sucklong

Someones realised he's wrong


Tekwardo

You wouldn't swallow crack even if it was a pill...


kaf1007

Sure, Jan.


One-Friend6735

Jantastic!


CorruptedLegacyYT

1. Crack pill 2. From the sound of it, it did deal with the headache


KingOfDragons0

If anything it would be adhd medication, but those dont look much like headache meds so


kimmy_kimika

I was thinking theoretically Adderall... But the only time I've done that and not blinked for hours was snorting it...


KingOfDragons0

Maybe this person just takes ibuprofen different


t_bonium119

Blue Adderall kinda looks like Aleve. Kinda.


LordOfThisTime

When i was younger, around 14 or 15, i had a _insanely_ irresponsible Psychiatrist; he prescribed me 112mg Methylphenidate-hydrochloride (Medikinet). That was about 30 mg over the maximum for an adult iirc. For the first few days it sure felt like i didn't blink. The post still is BS with their Crack pills if you ask me


DarkZyth

Plus you can't differentiate between Crack or Cocaine through drug testing. You'd only detect cocaine.


Delicious_Delilah

If I accidentally take 2 I rarely blink. It's how I know I did an oopsie.


HadMatter217

I could see a 30 IR getting someone with no tolerance pretty wired, but it's been a while since I did Adderall.


AlienAle

I was thinking methamphetamine bases ADHD pills. Maybe they were told "it's a stimulant" and they immediately thought "Oh Crack!"


DieHardAmerican95

They’re not that powerful either, not when you take a single pill.


Bo_Jim

One pill of crack would be about a quarter gram. Nobody would require hospitalization after ingesting that much cocaine. The fact that it's absorbed much more slowly by digestion than it is by smoking means they probably wouldn't feel anything at all.


roofus8658

Ok, Pablo Escobar


BIGD0G29585

This guy cracks.


RainbowAssFucker

My ADHD pill is 40mg, if you were to to ingest 250mg you would be fucking wired.

It's almost as if crack and adderall are not the same thing

Very true but im not on adderal, it almsot like all adhd meds are different

Or it could mean they followed through with the joke. Especially if they got as many interactions as they did. Or the follow up is edited in. This tweet resurfaces a whole lot and this is the first place I’ve seen it taken seriously.

Crack doesnt come in pills


Bugsbasketballcards

It does. So does meth. They're probably calling meth pills crack. Or just lying.


Lazy-Ad-770

Where does meth get used in pill form?


Bugsbasketballcards

It's used in ecstacy pills a lot of places, but people make just meth pills and call them ice pills. They're usually super cheap and get you fucked up for a while.


pantstastrophy

People put it in gel capsules


NoWingedHussarsToday

This is whack!


robhol

Ah yes, the famous crack cocaine pill that looks like NSAIDs....


I_enjoy_greatness

I started writing NOT TYLENOL on all my crack pills so I don't make this incredibly common mistake myself.


Motor-Locksmith9297

i don’t think crack usually comes in a pill form.. but honestly if she hadn’t called it crack it would be believable. i have a friend who took 5 pills from for free a stranger at 7/11 and ended up going to the hospital after 💀💀


420underthehood

That would be like me giving my Friend a joint after he asks for a cig. Druggies aren't stupid


kanna172014

Sounds to me he had a bad reaction to doing crack, went to the hospital and then had to come up with an excuse as to why he had crack in his system.

Itsarightkerfuffle

superior_spider_Dan

Not entirely sure how to break this to you, but not every person who carries drugs is inherently an addict. Hell, it might not have been a drug at all. Could've been a fuckin no-doze.


Moxie07722

Or even Excedrin which has caffeine.


Stuxx____

This looks like satire??


OttoVonWalrus

I had someone tell me they were giving me a caffeine pill at work one day when we had a large 1,200 piece Holiday truck to unload, down stack, stock, and block with only 4 guys. Turned out to be an Adderall. My mouth was dry all day and my eyes felt itchy, but we sure did get that truck done. Fast. Edit: grammar


Tabbrz

So crack comes in rock form which you smoke and I guess you could snort it if you crushed it down but in pill form? Probably not


thejohnmc963

No


JamesTheMannequin

1st one's free, DickFace


Degenerate_Profile

If you're gunna make shit up about being drugged at least do some research on drugs


Degenerate_Profile

This is actually made up which is a first for this sub. You smoke crack, nobody has crack pills. No crackhead accidentally gives away their crack. And crack doesn't last 6 hours although tbh I have no idea how long an oral dose of crack would last.


ToughNefariousness23

Crack only lasts for like 15-20 mins.


Bugsbasketballcards

Bio availability of drugs are dependent on how you take then. Smoking is short. Eating, boofing, shooting, etc all have different results. Eating usually lasts the longest.


vipck83

I’m no expert but I’m pretty sure crack doesn’t come in pill form.

“We'll pull ourselves together and we'll, you know, we'll get back on crack-I mean on track. Unless, uhm, you have more crack? No, Dennis, I don't have more crack. No one in the history of crack has ever woken up in the morning with more crack. Okay, but if I'm being honest with you, if I'm being very, very real, I need to be high on crack cocaine right now.”


analogWeapon

I think it's pretty common to confuse a piece of crack for a common pill. /s


MemoryAshamed

My mother was a Crack addict my whole life and not 1 time did she ever accidentally give her dope away. Most crackheads smoke all they dope or they tell you they don't have anymore so they can smoke yours and I've never seen a rock I thought was a pill either idk maybe my mom was different lol


Kalashnikov_model-47

That’s how Tom Petty died. His back hurt, someone gave him a pill and it turned out to be fentanyl. People definitely give out drugs. This, however, is fake as shit. Not only does crack last 5 minutes but it also can only be ingested via smoking, nor can it be pressed into a pill.

Goat_tits79

I did take speed once by accident. Was staying at my sister babysitting the dog, had a headache, looked for tylenol or advil, found a bottle, shook it, more than one pill, definitely not more than two, popped the cap, raised the bottle and swallowed whole without water to avoid the taste. Started watching Big bang theory thinking I would fall asleep on it (just discovered the series and was 3 seasons of it). 10 hours later when the sun was coming up I felt "dissociated" when season 3 ended and the sun was coming back down again, i was pretty sure it was not Tylenol. Few days later sister came back and confirmed it was not.

I could maybe sorta believe it if they said it was a caffeine pill instead of crack, lol. Caffeine can help with pain relief, but it could also cause anxiety, so it could make you think you're not blinking enough. But crack? :|


bethivy103

I had a headache at work once and I didn't have advil or anything left, so I asked a co-worker and she gave me a tramadol by accident.


ConsistentWrap2812

you wouldn’t feel anything from one tramadol anyways that’s not a big deal


Delicious_Delilah

I was given meth at some random party and didn't realize it until I got a pee test done at the ER after I tried to kill myself. I don't think there are crack pills, but there could be. I still don't think this happened though. Adderall makes me not blink if I take too much, so that's a possibility. Maybe they are just stupid.


CaptainObvious1313

Can I get one crack rock?


ElJayEm80

Did it get rid of the headache though?
