Cocaine Treatment

Skull of cocaine

The effects of cocaine make this a popular drug with those who like the excitement of parties or big business. In London, news reports cover the heavy use of cocaine among international finance employees, among others. Cocaine exerts a strong stimulating effect on the user, making him (or her) feel confident, energetic, excited and talkative. Cocaine is an expensive drug both because of the initial price and because the high must be renewed frequently. Some affluent users will go on a cocaine binge, using the drug continuously for days until they are exhausted.

Usage rates vary greatly across Europe, from a high of 10% of the adult population in Spain to just a tenth of a percent in Romania.

Cocaine abuse can be deadly but not necessarily from direct overdoses. The use of cocaine increases blood pressure while it also constricts the blood vessels. Thus enormous strain is placed on the cardiovascular system. A heart attack or stroke may kill a person when the actual source of the death is cocaine abuse.

Cocaine addiction treatment is needed for the person who can’t stop abusing this drug when he wants to. Fortunately for him (or her), the twenty Narconon centers across Europe have excellent records of helping cocaine addicts, and addicts of other drugs or alcohol, recover their sobriety.

Long-Term Narconon Rehab Centers are Ideal for Recovery

The Narconon program is long-term, meaning that a person has the time he needs to build a new sober life for himself. When drugs are abused over a long period of time and are relied on to cope with the pressures of business or life, a person must learn to enjoy life without it. This shift means that a person must learn to deal with life’s challenges and win at it, instead of covering them up with drugs.

The goal of a Narconon program is a person who is fully free from cocaine or other types of drug abuse. The majority of Narconon graduates find lasting sobriety after the Narconon program.

Clearing the Mind After Cocaine Addiction

Whenever a person abuses drugs, his body breaks down those toxic substances and eliminates them from the body. Some residues are left behind, however. Drug residues tend to bond to fats so become lodged in fatty tissues where they may remain for years.

Bringing a person back to life after addiction requires flushing these toxins out. This is exactly what happens on the Narconon New Life Detoxification Program. Combining a sauna with generous nutritional supplements and daily exercise, this phase of the overall recovery program brings about a new brightness, new outlook and clearer thinking as the toxins leave the body. Most people say their cravings for cocaine or other drugs are greatly reduced or gone.

After this phase of recovery, each person is much better equipped to build the sober-living skills that will be needed for lasting sobriety.

This is only part of the story of the Narconon drug and alcohol rehabilitation program. Over a three month period, those who were addicted to cocaine can find a new sober basis for living based on real understanding and ability, not further medicating or a long schedule of meetings.
