This all to often is the process of crack addiction: the soon to be addict takes his first hit. Upon inhalation of this powerful drug the users body instantly begins the addiction process. The individual's mental and emotional being is soon to follow, but for now just their body suffers from the initials stages of cocaine addiction. After the first few times of the drug their mind slowly starts the addiction process. This grows stronger and stronger until the addict mentally believes that they cannot live without the drug. They now are entangled in a full fledged addiction. Shortly after this occurs crack takes complete control over their emotions.

Once the individual's emotions have been over ridden by cocaine they no longer feel normal without being intoxicated. When this occurs they feel the need to use more cocaine just to feel normal. In order to get high they have to take an immense amount of the drug. Their addiction has infiltrated all areas of their life. They can no longer function physically, emotionally, or mentally without cocaine. This cycle of addiction continues until the individual either quits using or dies.

The above process of cocaine addiction demonstrates the potential power of this insidious drug. Even though death lurks around the corner, individuals with an addiction to cocaine continue to uses with no regard for their life, or anyone elses.

Crack addiction is attributed in part to its short-lived high which causes the user to want another hit almost immediately. Smoking crack delivers large quantities of cocaine to the lungs which goes directly to the brain in a concentrated form through the bloodstream, producing effects comparable to intravenous injection.

Crack Addiction has spread out from the cities and into residential communities nation wide. More than three-quarters (32 of 42) of law enforcement, and Pulse Check sources consider crack to be widely available in their communities. In most of these communities, crack continues to be locally processed and distributed. Settings for drug sales include parties, schools, college campuses, raves, and shopping malls. Crack tends to be sold in 0.1 and 0.2 gram rocks which generally cost approximately $10 and $20.
