Telltale signs of someone who's off their face on coke?

[VladmirsPoutine]

What would these be? I'm fairly good at recognising people that are wasted on alcohol; the slurring, the weird sort of honesty and imbalance when they walk. And for one or two reasons I can spot an alcoholic who is hiding it well; a functional alcoholic, if you will.

But with coke what would it be? I suspect this of someone close to me but don't necessarily want to make any judgements as such just yet. When someone is drunk it's easy to spot but I'm not aware of what someone off their face on coke would necessarily be like, speaking very fast and rubbing their nose a lot?

Chewing their gums would be a sign

Wide eyes, chatty, fidgety and rubbing their nose!

Pinprick pupils is a good sign.

Talking a lot & sniffing are usually a dead give away

Blinking, can’t maintain eye contact and eyes darting around, sweating

*Excessive and rapid blinking. Not just blinking

I had a friend who used to go and do a line in the loo during dinner. The sweating was the giveaway to me.

Boring on at speed.

Talk utter shite. Quickly.

Darting eyes.

Possibly sniffing and nose rubbing.

Signs of cocaine abuse include:

Excitability
Dilated pupils
Runny nose
Weight loss
Mood swings
Social isolation
Risky behaviors
Nosebleeds
Boost in confidence
Talkative habits
Changes in sleeping and eating patterns
White powder residue around the nose and mouth
Burn marks on the hands and lips
Deterioration in hygiene habits
Financial difficulties
Loss of interest in things that once brought joy
Increased need for privacy
Spoons, razor blades, plastic baggies and other drug paraphernalia in the person’s room or clothing pockets

Acting like they're suddenly aware they have a tongue
Talkative
Sniffing
If you're in a social situation: drinking a lot, smoking, but not eating
Disappearing off to the bog

Being ridiculously over confident. Talking loads and thinking everything they say is a really good idea.

Behaving like a massive twat.

They may be paranoid and take what people say to them the wrong way and get really dog and bone about it.

Talking about themselves and thinking they’re hilarious.

It’s actually quite difficult to tell if a person has done coke by looking at them unless you know them well when they’re straight and then it’s completely obvious as you know how they’re face works normally.

Their!

Talking about themselves a lot. Like a sudden immediate loss of self awareness. And the sweating.

Lots of jaw movement.

Intense conversation, pinprick pupils.

Shitting themselves in the bathroom and sleeping in it. Or maybe that was just my friend's utter waste of chromosome that was her ex husband. Anyway, it was a bit of a giveaway.

Non-stop intensive talking!

Being more of a cock than they were 5 mins ago.

If they have a medium/bad habit then financial difficulties.

Not eating

Smoking a lot.

The hit lasts 30 mins -45 mins before they need to reload. So disappearing at these intervals (maybe sooner depending on quality).

Talking confident shite

"Cocaine eyes mean large, dilated pupils, and this occurs because this drug is a stimulant, and as endorphins and brain chemicals are released in large amounts, the eyes react through the dilation of the pupils, thus the term cocaine eyes".

Cocaine is one of the drugs with dilated not pinprick pupils.

Also if at home look for residue in the bathroom - on the back of the loo, the cistern or a shelf - either bits of white powder or a recently cleaned patch or possibly a finger wetted and wiped across to pick up residue will leave a mark.

That and animated chatting shit and suddenly sobering up, plus no interest in food and unusual jaw movement.

Of course, it's heroin that gives pinprick pupils

Gurning.

Well having known come addict non of those really, managed to talk normally etc earned loads of money so no sign there very smart and good hygiene.

I did it once. I had to dominate the conversation I panicked when some one else started to talk because I had to keep talking
