What Is Cocaine Addiction?

Cocaine addiction is a medical condition in which an individual experiences a compulsive desire to misuse cocaine, despite the persistence of negative effects on the person’s life. Currently, cocaine is classified as a Schedule II substance in the United States, meaning it can be administered by a healthcare professional for legitimate reasons, but it has a very high potential for misuse.

Cocaine is a powerful stimulant. Its source, the coca leaf, has been ingested by indigenous people for thousands of years; purified cocaine has been used for well over 100 years in the United States. Today, it is abused in two forms: as hydrochloride salt (powder) and in its base form (freebase). Most people who seek treatment for cocaine addiction have a history of misusing freebase cocaine, commonly known as crack cocaine or simply “crack.” However, powder cocaine is just as addictive and can lead to increased tolerance, dependence, and addiction.

Facts & Statistics About Cocaine Use

  • According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, cocaine-related overdose deaths are rising in the United States, with more than 16,000 people dying in 2019 alone.
  • A 2020 national survey by the National Institutes of Health revealed that 4.1% of 12th graders reported having used cocaine at least once in their lifetime (up from 3.8% in 2019), with 2.9% reporting having used cocaine at least once within the past year (up from 2.2% in 2019). This same study revealed 16.8% of adults age 26 or older reported having used cocaine at least once in their lifetime.
  • Americans between the ages of 18 to 25 use cocaine more than any other age group.

Signs of Cocaine Abuse & Addiction

It can be incredibly difficult to recognize the signs of cocaine abuse or addiction, as many users hide or lie about the true extent of their drug use—even to themselves. And because cocaine is a relatively popular social drug, it can be difficult for friends and family members to determine when experimentation has gotten out of hand.

Some signs of cocaine abuse and addiction include:

  • Noticeable changes in a person’s self-confidence or self-esteem
  • Loss of enjoyment/interest in various activities
  • Increased excitability and talkativeness
  • Dilated pupils
  • Runny nose and nosebleeds
  • Sudden weight loss/changes in appetite
  • Mood swings
  • Insomnia/extended periods of wakefulness
  • Paranoia
  • Engaging in risky behaviors
  • Changes in eating or sleeping patterns
  • Financial or legal problems
  • Irritability and agitation
  • Depression
  • Being late or missing work
  • Loss of employment
  • Social isolation
  • Poor hygiene
  • Increased secretiveness
  • Burns on the lips and/or fingers
  • Drug paraphernalia (razor blades, spoons, baggies, etc.)
  • White powder near the nose/mouth

Long-term cocaine abuse can lead to elevated heart rate and blood pressure, as well as overdose and death as users develop higher tolerance for the drug. Additionally, street cocaine is often “cut” with other substances, including other drugs, which can have severe consequences for the user. And when cocaine is abused alongside other substances, such as alcohol, its physical and psychological effects can become noticeably more pronounced.

Unfortunately, because it changes the chemical makeup of the user’s brain, cocaine is incredibly addicting, and it can be very challenging for a person to quit without professional help and treatment.

How Is Cocaine Addiction Treated?

Cocaine abuse and addiction often goes hand-in-hand with the misuse of other types of substances, as well as certain mental and emotional conditions, familial relationship issues, and other environmental factors. As such, treating cocaine abuse and addiction may require dual diagnosis treatment.

Behavioral therapies have been proven to be an effective method of treating cocaine abuse and addiction, both in inpatient and outpatient settings. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), in particular, has been shown to be an effective method of preventing cocaine abuse relapse, especially when it is used as an element of whole-person drug addiction treatment.

Overcoming Cocaine Addiction

The first step is acknowledging that you have a problem. The second step is working your program in the long term. Overcoming addiction is challenging for the addicted person as well as loved ones. Our Prescott cocaine addiction rehab can help you in the long-term.

There are several negative side effects associated with cocaine usage, so the sooner you get involved in a rehab program, sooner you can achieve long-term sobriety. Along with that sobriety, you can expect a more fulfilling, healthy life.

Signs of a Cocaine Overdose

A cocaine overdose disrupts the body's normal functions, causing a range of physical and behavioral symptoms. Here's a breakdown of key signs to watch for:

  • Extreme agitation, restlessness, or paranoia
  • Seizures
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Rapid or irregular heartbeat
  • Chest pain or pressure
  • Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
  • High blood pressure
  • Profuse sweating
  • Very high body temperature

These signs can vary depending on the amount of cocaine taken, the person's tolerance, and any other substances they might have consumed.

What to Do if You Suspect a Cocaine Overdose

If you suspect someone is experiencing a cocaine overdose, immediate action is crucial. Here's what you should do:

  • Call emergency services: Dial 911 or your local emergency number immediately.
  • Stay with the person: Don't leave them alone until help arrives.
  • Check for breathing: Look, listen, and feel for signs of breathing. If they're not breathing, start CPR if you are trained.
  • Keep the person calm: Speak in a reassuring voice and try to keep them still.
  • Avoid confrontation: Don't try to restrain an agitated person.
  • Gather information: If possible, try to find out how much cocaine they took and when they last used it.
