♥♥♥Cocaine and Weight Loss♥♥♥?

Question

Last year at my school, we had a girl who overdosed on cocaine and died. She wasnt one of my best friends, but we were pretty close, although no matter what i said, she wouldnt break the habit. I know her initial reason for starting up was to lose weight. Now in school, we have an assignment to write on drugs and their affect on the human body. I was wondering if anyone knew the amount of weight or the affect the drug has on weight loss(ex. how much weight would be lost in what amound of time). also if it gives you instant weight loss,(which is why i believe she started, before it turned into an addiction). the last topic im including is a short paragraph about other street drugs that can be abused for weight loss and their affect on the body.i would appreciate some info about that as well! thanks for all of your help! ♥ ♥ ♥

Answer 1

You will see from the information below that weight loss is not a side effect of cocaine use. I would imagine that your friend used that reason for taking the drug as an excuse and paid with her life. All drug use is stupid and idiotic and for losers only.

Effects on the body
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What kind of drug is cocaine?
Cocaine is a stimulant drug. Stimulant drugs speed up the activity of the brain and other parts of the central nervous system.

What are the effects of cocaine use
As the effects of cocaine vary with each person, it is difficult to predict exactly in what way, and for how long, cocaine will affect a person’s ability to drive safely. Effects are influenced by factors such as how much, how often and how they are used, plus the psychological and physical attributes of the person using them.

Common effects after using cocaine include:

physiological arousal, including increased body temperature, heart rate, enlarged pupils and sexual arousal
exhilaration, feelings of wellbeing, decreased hunger
anxiety, panic
poor concentration and judgement
indifference to pain and fatigue
feelings of great physical strength and mental capacity
unpredictable and/or violent behaviour.
Using greater amounts of cocaine can cause extreme agitation, anxiety, paranoia, hallucinations, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, tremors, unpredictable violent/aggressive behaviour, loss of concentration, loss of coordination, loss of interest in sex, and loss of ambition and motivation. There may also be a risk of heart pain, heart attack, paranoid psychosis, increased body temperature, and rapid, irregular and shallow breathing.

Psychosis
High doses of cocaine can also result in “cocaine psychosis”. The psychosis is generally temporary and is characterised by paranoid delusions, hallucinations and aggressive or violent behaviour. Some people may scratch at imaginary “coke bugs” on their skin.

Overdose
An overdose of cocaine can cause seizures, heart attack, brain haemorrhage, kidney failure, stroke and repeated convulsions.

Dependence and withdrawal
Regular use of cocaine can lead to strong psychological dependence (addiction). Those who abruptly stop their cocaine use can experience withdrawal symptoms as their body readjusts to functioning without the drug. Cocaine withdrawal usually occurs in three phases:

The crash
Symptoms include agitation, depression, intense craving for the drug and extreme fatigue. This may last up to four days from last use.

The withdrawal phase
This lasts up to ten weeks and is characterised by depression, lack of energy, anxiety, intense cravings and angry outbursts.

The extinction phase
This phase may last indefinitely and includes symptoms of episodic cravings for cocaine. Other withdrawal symptoms may include lack of motivation, inability to feel pleasure, nausea/vomiting, shaking, irritability and/or agitation, muscle pain, and long, but disturbed, sleep.

Answer 4

put very simply... cocaine blocks all messages to your brain except pleasure. sooo the brain could care less if hunger, pain or any other message comes at it... it just wants more of the pleasure message that cocaine gives. there's your weight loss... problem is the brain also runs your body and if it does not respond to other messages ... there's your death...
