The cocaine alkaloid is a drug, which is often referred to by various names such as coke, snow, pear and Falopa, among others. Generally, the cocaine is sold mixed with other substances, not to mention that in the street drug alternatives are available for cocaine and crack and the free base.

This drug has many implications for those individuals who use them, which depend largely on the mix of forms of consumption and the actual response of the subject before taking the substance. However, it is important to note that it is usually possible to distinguish between immediate and long term effects of cocaine . The immediate objectives are: dilated pupils, nose irritation, dry throat, loss of appetite, insomnia, great thirst, euphoria, excessive self-confidence, high energy, talkativeness, nervousness, restlessness, anxiety and huge desire to return to consume.

The long-term effects can be physical, psychological and social. Physicists are related to heart problems, breathing difficulties, disadvantages in nerve function, sexual disorders and loss of smell, among others.

If you look at the results of the survey that appears on this site, the majority of respondents opting for cocaine to “continue the party.” I ask, would it be impossible to continue the party without that substance so addictive? I think we have a problem, and it seems that the lack of daring and courage vital-perhaps we should read something else, or for the first time, Nietzsche – causes us to live immersed in a routine

numbing, boring, without much encouragement, stiff and serious, or disenchanted with what we have built or social or personal histories in which we’ve gotten. Of course, when life has little meaning, the party becomes the only way to “feel” a little more, let go of our mental chains, to laugh, to hug, to awaken the ability to seduce … then would not matter that instead of living like a mummy boring / a during the week and then give full rein to alcohol and cocaine (usually go together) you dare to change your reality? Sure, but it requires other attitudes, and overall reforms or vital revolution that many dare not think. You know that cocaine masks your real emotions, you may feel empty, shyness or complex? Do you really think that there is nothing you can fill, or anything you can do to change? And if it would be that after all this lies a person with great potential, or a high sensitivity or high intelligence, or someone who needs to feel and sense of truth, or an innovative business? Cocaine overflowing just who consumes, ruining all their life chances, preventing plant frankly to the world.

I, who believe in a lifestyle free and open, where everyone has and should find its place, I think it is so absurd that many people become dormant is hidden or can be released only by the drug. In my professional experience as a therapist I have helped many people to stop using cocaine barely talk about it, simply removing the layers covering their “being” (as Michelangelo said Buonarroti when asked how he managed to carve a perfect work as “piety” and said that that he had simply remove the stone that covered it.) Cocaine symbolizes a kind of costume you use to live. If you take off the costume you leave forever, but that requires boldness and zest for life, much more than repression or containment.
