Cocaine is known as an “upper” because it creates a feeling of heightened mood, increased energy, and increased motivation. The powder form of cocaine and the rock form (crack cocaine) both pose an especially high risk for lethal overdose compared to other drugs. This is especially true with the addition of fentanyl, an opioid that can be mixed with cocaine sometimes without the user knowing.
Cocaine is highly addictive because it changes the chemical makeup of your brain. This makes a cocaine addiction extremely difficult to quit without help. Washburn House in Worcester, MA is a cocaine addiction treatment center here to guide you through the cocaine withdrawal and recovery process.
Cocaine addiction tends to cause more behavioral symptoms than physical ones. This means that the easiest way to know whether your use of cocaine is an addiction is by looking at your behaviors, like:
Your loved ones and people close to you may notice the signs and symptoms of your cocaine addiction before you do.
Addiction to this drug also has psychological effects. This is because cocaine increases the amount of dopamine, or “feel-good” chemicals, in your brain. Your brain gets used to this flood of neurotransmitters. Over time, it comes to depend on it. This creates a feeling of need or craving, which gets worse the longer you are addicted. These cravings indicate you’ve become dependent on cocaine. You’ll need a cocaine addiction treatment center in Worcester, Massachusetts to quit.
It’s very difficult to resist the craving for cocaine on your own, making substance abuse treatment at a caring treatment center like Washburn House the ideal place to recover.
We have several programs that will start you on your recovery journey, and our treatment professionals will give you all the tools you need to be successful. The program you choose depends on what your needs are. Our staff of clinicians and case managers is happy to talk you through your treatment options and help you find the best fit.
Withdrawing from cocaine looks different for each person because exactly what it’s like depends on several factors. You can count on experiencing a “crash” when the effects of the high are wearing off. This is what will drive you to seek out more cocaine.
If you are using cocaine and another substance, or you require more medical attention, you may be placed in our medical detox program. Our skilled nursing and clinical team will monitor you 24 hours a day to keep you safe throughout your cocaine withdrawal.
The effects of a cocaine crash can include:
You may continue to have cravings ranging in intensity for weeks after you stop using. This is due to the chemical changes that have taken place in your brain. It’s also why relapse prevention skills are so important to learn when recovering from cocaine addiction.
Not everyone who comes to Washburn House with a cocaine addiction needs to move through medically monitored detox. Our admissions staff and medical professionals will make a determination that’s right for you!
This offers the highest level of support in a residential inpatient rehab center. You will receive intensive group and individual therapy to help you process what led to your cocaine addiction and how to steer clear of the drug in the future.
This outpatient rehab program allows you to spend a large portion of your day in treatment while still going home in the evening. A partial hospitalization program is a step down from inpatient care, so it’s best for people who have completed some drug addiction treatment and/or have a supportive, sober environment at home. It teaches valuable relapse prevention skills.
Our intensive outpatient rehab center at Washburn House gives you several hours of group therapy and individual therapy each week. It will also incorporate a variety of treatment modalities in an outpatient treatment capacity. You’ll be assigned a therapist and case manager to work with you on how to use your skills outside of treatment.
Upon arriving at Washburn House, the severity of your cocaine use will be assessed by trained clinical or medical staff. We’ll look at:
If your addiction requires it, you will be referred for detox. Our Medically Monitored Detox program will help you through the difficult detoxification process safely and as comfortably as possible, whatever your withdrawal symptoms might be.
Detox lasts about a week, but you may continue to have problems with sleep and depression for some time after this.
Graduating to other forms of treatment involving therapy and skills training are your best bet for remaining sober. Lifestyle changes, such as exercising and eating healthy, will help you better manage any symptoms you experience and contribute to better overall health. Our cocaine addiction treatment program in Worcester, Massachusetts will also help you build skills for resisting the urge to relapse.
