So, Ive discovered someone close is using crack...I totally missed the obvi I think. Is this typical addict behavior u experienced?
* Goes to use the restroom frequently and stays in there for long periods. Lots of toilet paper(whole roll sometimes gone in one visit)
* Explodes in anger. Like hair trigger temper at minor things. And when its explained that we did not mean to offend, still very angry
*Makes plans with set time and will confirm an hour prior, then never show up and disappear for a day or two
* Stinks. Body odor. Very sweaty. Used to be squeaky clean
* Once a very prideful person, he now has no car and claims he sold it. He also needs just $20. Just $15. Just $40. Just money for a gym membership and then the very next day will need more money.
* Hyper critical of me. When he used to adore me.
* Denies using crack.
Also, can crack be smoked with a metal pipe normally used for marijuana? Or only a glass pipe.
I have heard of addicts in jail smoking out of a chicken bone. So my answer would be yes, I have observed my ex smoking out of a coke can or a homemade pipe made from tin foil as well as his weed pipe. Those are all definite red flags that point to crack use. Please don't take any of it personal. It has absolutely nothing to do with you. If you get weak or insecure about your role in the addiction, the addict will use that to manipulate you.
