Overcoming This Damaging Addiction
What Is Cocaine Addiction?
Cocaine is a dangerously addictive stimulant. It overloads and overpowers the body’s natural regulators. Someone addicted to cocaine will experience intense cravings and struggle to maintain relationships. Over time, the user will often develop an increased tolerance and seek larger doses. Intervention is essential to fight this complex addiction.
Cocaine’s Negative Side Effects
Cocaine gives an immediate rush and temporary mental clarity, making it incredibly addictive. However, prolonged cocaine use negatively affects a person’s body function and overall health. It can cause insomnia, high blood pressure, and increased heart rate. Pupils will dilate, and those who snort cocaine will suffer a damaged mucus membrane.
More negative side effects come to those who consume larger amounts of cocaine. They may display erratic, bizarre, or violent behaviour. As a person increases cocaine intake, he or she can experience everything from muscle twitches to vertigo, tremors, and seizures. In a worst-case scenario, drug abuse can cause sudden death. In Australia, there were 884 cocaine-related deaths between 2000 and 2021. The rate is even higher in the United States.
Rehabilitation is necessary to combat these negative side effects of cocaine abuse.
Symptoms of Cocaine Addiction
Being aware of the symptoms of cocaine addiction will make it easier to identify a cocaine addict in your family or circle of friends. If you’re the one using the substance, it will help you know when it’s time to get help.
Keep an eye on physical symptoms, including burn marks on a person’s lips or fingers, white powder around the mouth or nose, and significant changes in appearance like weight loss without diet modifications or exercise. Other symptoms of cocaine addiction include anxiety, paranoia, and mood swings. Abusing cocaine can also cause the addict financial troubles and a propensity for risky behaviour.
If you or someone you care about shows signs of cocaine addiction, it is crucial to understand that help is available. Addiction is a disease, and anyone can recover from it with the right treatment and compassionate support.

How to Deal with Cocaine Addiction
Cocaine Addiction Counselling
Our rehabilitation programs include individual and group counselling sessions. Counselling is an integral part of cocaine addiction treatment, as it helps those struggling with this addiction discover, understand, and address the underlying issues that contributed to their drug use.
Cocaine Detoxification
Detoxing from cocaine is not a walk in the park. Someone who develops a physiological dependence on cocaine will experience associated withdrawal symptoms if they stop taking the drug. The symptoms can be debilitating and dangerous, which is why it is crucial to seek professional help.
At Hills & Ranges, patients detoxifying from cocaine receive 24-hour monitoring and support from qualified medical professionals. Our team ensures the detox process is comfortable and safe.
