3. Let a stripper educate you.

Although I am the only one you will ever meet who has NEVER done coke.
ANyway; when someone does coke; it makes the muscles in their jaw clench. Different ppl have different reactions; but most either visibly clench their teeth together or they grind them together.
Side note: this is how you can tell if any other drug has been cut or laced with coke. Very telling. Also makes for a sore jaw and teeth.
Clearer?

5. I didn't know the expression but here's a good example of Coke Jaw :

10. No, that's an example of........

pure, fucking evil. A man without a soul and no qualms about shitting all over someone for a nickel. THAT'S what THAT is!

11. ROTFL !

:rofl: So true !

[The Great Escape]

6. Thanks...That Makes Sense

would a person have to be currently indulging or could it be a residual from past use. Are there other drugs that could cause this that you are aware of?

[jeff30997]

7. In my case: Too much caffeine.

[miss_kitty]

8. many drugs, legal and illegal

tension does it too.

13. meth

part of why meth addicts have such shitty teeth... they grind them.

[Ariana Celeste]

15. Exactly.

Normal when your body is under stress- regular stress can cause that, too. But meth use makes it much worse.

9. Bingo.........

hit the nail right on the head. Back in my wild and crazy days I DID do " a little" now and again. Coke wires you out and you get nervous symptoms like teeth clenching, finger twiddling.....hopefully, if your heart doesn't burst first.
Bad drug, I should have never gone there, but what's done is done. I'd never recommend it to anyone.
Stripper, huh? That's what I love about the Democratic Party. The "BIG TENT", you meet some of the most interesting people.

12. Back in my wild and crazy days...

I took A LOT of that shit.What saved me was the fact that I'm an extremely nervous guy and after a while I couldn't do snow without getting sick.

[Ariana Celeste]

16. I just got too paranoid.

And I'm naturally a paranoid person to begin with. Lol. Lost interest. Was fun, but the constant paranoia kind of took away from that, to say the least.

4. I'm not familiar with the expression but my guess is:

Because the Chimp used (still using?)cocaine.

14. When one does cocaine,

one can have the same behavior as a very stressed person. Considering that it can make you paranoid, raises consciousness, raises awareness, increases concentration, and increases your heartrate, one often will find themselves clenching their jaws, playing with objects, twiddling thumbs, and so on. Effects vary from person to person, but jaw clenching is fairly normal for coke users.

It doesn't happen to people who were once addicted but quit. Although other forms of stress/tension do cause the same types of reaction.
