Just to remind why you should probably not indulge in coke.

I can totally understand why ppl do coke (idk its effects, but I can understand why). Tho' it is better to have more information than be oblivious before making a choice:

Autophagy is the natural process by which our cells clean out — or digest — unwanted debris stored inside bag-like structures called vacuoles. Normally, it's good for our cells. But when the mouse brains were exposed to cocaine, the process accelerated and began spinning out of control — ultimately resulting in cell death.

It means - with each blow your brain is less capable, memory gets worse, your motivational feedback loops are thrown off the balance (you may start feelign the mood swings/depressed state), you generally become less intelligent and critical, all of that means increased chance of death (to sum it up).

If everyone's lives were perfect they wouldn't use alcohol or drugs as an escape. I'm not saying you're incorrect but people already know it's bad for them but it makes them feel better for the moment and will shorten their life ending their suffering sooner.

I've done coke a few times. It really didn't feel like anything special.

Over the years our physiology changes and it changes the way our bodies metabolize cocaine. Cocaine no longer does to me what it once did. Strange... but probably a good thing.

Had a not insignificant habit until 15 years ago. And yes, my memory, focus and processing power have been markedly worse since. Yes, it does do harm.

That's why I said that it's important to have some knowledge on the matter before going full throttle. If that doesn't scare - well who am I to tell anyone to not do that.

Let people do what they want
It's an issue when it becomes an addiction
Stimulants drugs all that rubbish have been around for hundreds of years

I don't restrict anyone, merely an information.

As long as you detox with something like a downer like valium then you're fine.

I meant it wasn't worth it back then.

Hmmm?  That's certainly a possibility.
