Question by Matt: How long does crack stay in your system?
I know crack is a really bad thing but ive been doing it for the past 5-6 days. Im stopping now because i see how addictive it is and i allready owe people money and its not good. I wanted to know how long crack cocaine stays in your system or hair. I need to get a job within the next week in a half and i might have to be tested. Please help and thanx alot. Im 19 and that was my first time and ive been doing it everyday since then. I need help and i NEED to stop this stuff.

Drugs can be found in hair particles for quite a while, however, your pee can clear up fairly quickly. The longer you use it consecutively, the longer it will stay in your urine. Stop today and I’d think you would be good to go in a week or two.

Take note of your last sentence: “I need help and i NEED to stop this stuff.” You have bigger fish to fry than simply passing a drug test. Go to a church AA or NA meeting. The people will be VERY accepting and as in the name, it is anonymous.

I know what I’m talking about when I say that the next 10 plus years of your life may hinge on the decisions you make in the very near future. Make good ones.
