I use coke now and then (maybe once every 2 months). Anyways i did it tonight, and i did a big line. My heart started racing and my DP became /really bad/. ive done coke while im DP before and nothing happened, i wonder why now?

To be honest, it seems that pretty much any substance, even alcohol and certainly something like coke, can aggravate DP. I've heard that cocaine especially can be quite bad for people with anxiety, and the same could quite possibly apply to DP/DR.

I wouldn't recommend doing it again.

lol robbie. freshjive, if your heart didn't race before, you weren't doing enough :wink: . i got my 1st dp episode from cocaine, don't touch it again, please! coke releases huge amounts of adrenaline in the body/brain, and adrenaline is dp's best friend.

I used to do coke a lot. I never got terrible DP because I was always drinking a lot when I did it, which probably counteracted some of its anxiogenic effects. Had I taken it sober, I would have blown out in a full panic attack. But, if you aren't taking something that manages your anxiety or panic disorder, those speedy drugs will cause anxiety and aggravate DP.

as far as i know alcohol decreases GABA in the brain, which makes your anxiety/dp worse the next day. i did the combo for a long time as well with no problem. I've done coke sober too with no problem either. but it takes just that one time, just that perfect setup where our body is finally pushed to its limits. -ru
