The level of craving, irritability, delayed depression, and other symptoms produced by cocaine withdrawal rivals or exceeds that felt with other withdrawal syndromes.Is Cocaine Addictive?

Cocaine Treatment Program
Inspire Malibu’s cocaine treatment program includes both education and multidimensional therapy. Education about the disease of addiction and education about the necessary changes a person has to make in their life to stay away from abusing any mood-altering chemical. These changes include developing a new, healthier perspective. Other new behaviors such as closely monitoring their moods and mental health, and knowing what to do when they get the urge to use.
At Inspire Malibu, we teach our clients that successful long-term recovery from cocaine addiction starts with the desire and motivation to stay abstinent from drug use. Clients have to be made aware of the severe, inevitable consequences of o not learning to live a drug-free lifestyle.
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant, a real feeling of euphoria. Therefore, clients have to find other stimulating activities to replace the stimulation of cocaine. At Inspire Malibu, cocaine treatment really comes down to finding out why someone needs artificial stimulation when life itself is vastly stimulating.
About Cocaine
The powdered hydrochloride salt form of cocaine can be snorted or dissolved in water and then injected. Crack is the street name given to the form of cocaine that has been processed to make a rock crystal. When heated it produces vapors that are smoked. The term “crack” refers to the crackling sound produced by the rock as it is heated.
The cocaine rehab treatment process starts with a full assessment and evaluation. This information helps us to get to know the person. It also helps us determine if there are any underlying psychiatric issues such as depression, bi-polar, anxiety, ADHD and others. Many of the people who fall victim to cocaine abuse have undiagnosed or untreated depression, in some form. Cocaine, being a stimulant, helps relieve their depression or feelings of low self-esteem temporarily until eventually they become completely dependent on it as a form of self-medication.
