I played around with cocaine a lot a few years back. I really cant say that I was addicted but I did do it a lot. And it did mess me up. I was in college and I got dropped from 2 of my classes and retook the others to get a better grade. Once I decided to stop it wasn't as hard as everyone says it is, which is what makes me realise that I wasn't addicted. I just liked it. But now im over it and I'm so not going back!!

Yeah good on you, it sounds similar to my experience with cocaine it was the fact that I actually enjoyed doing it rather than being addicted, I did get to the stage of addiction but I managed to beat it before it beat me. Well done to you and its good to hear your story.

That's great, I'm happy for you and yes, you are really lucky. So many take their sobriety for granted and they end up paying the price for it. But who knows how long you would've lasted if you did let yourself become addicted. Some of my friends use cocaine and I can't even be around them when they're on it, they're ridiculous with it.

Thats really good that you weren't addicted, pretty amazing actually. Cocaine is a very addictive drug and you used it for quite a while, someone up above must really love you -_-

You got really lucky that coke didn't take over your life. One of my buddies has been using it for a few years and cant get off of it. We make fun of him and tell him that hes just doing coke to show off that he's rich, but really were all bothered by it and yet he has no intentions to quit. We've also tried talking him into it and he agrees that he should quit but he just cant.
