Cocaine Addiction
Cocaine addiction causes severe health problems, including heart issues, mental health disorders, and risky behaviors.
A highly addictive, illegal drug, cocaine abuse is a problem that is as serious as it is dangerous. Cocaine use brings a rush of dopamine which drains the body’s natural supply, thus making it all the more addictive. Addiction to cocaine not only ruins the quality of your life it can end your life as well, seeing as cocaine overdose deaths are rising nationwide. If you or someone you love has been struggling with cocaine addiction, we can help. Through our detox and outpatient services, we can empower you to not only cleanse your body of cocaine’s toxins but also to live your life on your terms.
Physical Signs of Cocaine Addiction
While the physical symptoms of cocaine can worsen over time, using it even once can be dangerous. As cocaine stimulates your body, boosting your heart rate and your blood pressure, it can lead to serious complications (and even in some cases, death) after using it just one time. Other symptoms of cocaine abuse include:
- Panic attacks
- Hallucinations
- Anger
- paranoid
- Cardiovascular dilemmas
- Twitching muscles
- Dilated pupils
- Struggles with balance
- Overdose and death
Those are just a few of the physical symptoms associated with cocaine addiction. Even worse symptoms can arise from abusing cocaine along with other substances, such as alcohol, weed, heroin, and others.
