Cocaine Abuse
Cocaine is one of the most abused major drugs in the United States. A powerful stimulant, appetite suppressant, and topical analgesic, cocaine has an extremely pleasurable effect on the brain, while also triggering a desire to repeat the behavior. Taken in small amounts, it makes users feel energetic, talkative, mentally alert and euphoric. However, cocaine use can also lead to feelings of irritability, anxiety, panic and paranoia.
Cocaine abuse can also lead to medical complications including heart rhythms, heart attacks, strokes, seizures, headaches, comas, abdominal pain, nausea and, even death.
It is a highly addictive and highly destructive drug.
Cocaine addiction can completely change a person’s personality and destroy their desire and ability to live a healthy and productive life. Individuals addicted to cocaine are often moody and unpredictable, and sometimes violent, often aimed at those who are trying to help them most. Cocaine addiction requires medical treatment for the safety of the individual and their loved ones.
