About Cocaine Addiction Treatment

Cocaine is a very addictive stimulant drug and overcoming its abuse is difficult. Cocaine creates feelings of euphoria and energy by releasing dopamine in the brain. Dopamine is part of our reward center and it makes us feel good. As the addict continues to use cocaine, the brain needs more of it to function, and greater amounts are required to feel the same pleasure that the user felt the first time the drug was used.

The loss of pleasure that comes with cutting back makes stopping this addiction challenging, and it makes relapsing more common. Cravings can last for months after withdrawal. Withdrawal side effects range from mild to severe and include an emotional crash, headaches, muscle tremors, nervousness, lack of energy and increased appetite. While that certainly sounds unpleasant, addiction can be overcome with the help of supervised cocaine detox and good cocaine rehab programs, like that offered by Legacy Recovery Center. Our admissions and medical team will assess you to determine if you need cocaine detox. If you do, we will work with you and our local detox partners to help you get admitted to their detox program. Once complete we will arrange for your admission to Legacy Recovery Center.

 

Dangers of Cocaine Addiction

However, the common abuse of cocaine is much more serious and includes:

Constricted blood vessels which can lead to stroke
Cardiovascular damage
Brain Damage
Psychotic episodes
Fits of rage
Elevated blood pressure
Rapid heartbeat also known as tachycardia

Cocaine Withdrawal and Detox

Symptoms of someone suffering from Cocaine withdrawal can vary, depending on duration of use, and amount used. Some milder withdrawal symptoms include anxiety, lack of energy, moodiness, and sleep irregularities. It will take the user’s body some time to return to a normal state.

Symptoms of cocaine withdrawal can also include:

Intense Cravings
Depression
Fatigue
Insomnia
Paranoia
Agitation
Nightmares

Residential Cocaine Rehab

Due to the highly addictive nature of cocaine, and how powerful its cravings are when trying to quit, residential rehab is always recommended as a first step to recovery

Our cocaine rehab clinic in Chandler, Arizona is unlike others. We provide post-detox cocaine addiction treatment in a comfortable, peaceful, residential facility instead of a hospital or medical setting. Residential treatment is superior to outpatient treatment because it removes the user from his or her everyday environment with its stressors and access to drugs. And our calm setting is ideal for recovery as it allows you to relax and collect your thoughts.

While in rehab at Legacy Recovery Center, clients will have access to licensed professionals to help them on their journey of cocaine addition recovery. This includes our owners Dr. Roland Segal, and Dr. Ehab Abdallah, Licensed Masters level therapists, and a wide range of other supportive staff members.
