According to the Primary Care Companion to the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, cocaine is known to produce a wide range of mental health symptoms. Psychiatric symptoms can worsen with consistent drug use. Co-occurring psychiatric disorders such as depression and anxiety are common in individuals with cocaine use disorder. Cocaine addiction treatment can help.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), cocaine is a potent substance that activates one’s reward system in the brain. Cocaine produces intense euphoria shortly after engaging in substance use. The desire to use the drug again sets in motion, resulting in the negative cycle of addiction. Substances laced with cocaine can lead to increased risks.
According to the Office of Addiction Services and Supports, cocaine use can lead to both mental and physical health complications. Individuals who engage in cocaine use instantaneously feel the effects of cocaine, such as increased arousal, hallucinations, paranoia, abnormal body movements, tremors, and more.
There is a strong link between cocaine use and psychiatric disorders. Having two or more conditions related to substance use is called a dual diagnosis. Although there is no direct cause of a dual diagnosis, a few factors contribute to the severity of one’s condition. For example, some individuals self-medicate with cocaine to stay alert in certain environments, block out past trauma, or for recreational purposes.
It can be difficult for individuals with cocaine addiction or their loved ones to recognize the signs of addiction. Although this may be true, it is important to stay informed on how to recognize the signs of cocaine addiction. This helps family members understand when to seek professional care and potentially save their loved one’s life.
Research indicates that frequent cocaine use is associated with various cocaine-related behavioral symptoms (CRBS). Many CRBS are highly intercorrelated. Common behavioral signs of cocaine addiction include:
According to the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), cocaine abuse causes many harsh physical symptoms on an individual’s body. Misusing cocaine can cause ischemic heart conditions, convulsions, strokes, sudden cardiac arrest, and death.
Long-term use of cocaine can cause various effects on an individual’s brain. For example, cocaine use can cause depression, anxiety, and paranoia. The intense euphoria damages one’s reward system and the structure of the brain over time, leading to severe addiction.
Our experienced team of therapists takes great pride in using evidence-based therapies and modalities. Here at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch, we take a holistic and evidence-based approach to addiction treatment. By combining various therapeutic modalities, our team addresses the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of our client’s addiction.
Here at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch, our clients thrive in our structured treatment setting to promote stability and predictability. Our clinical team offers a comprehensive residential treatment program that provides individuals with a supportive environment to aid in their healing process.
Our clients at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch find great benefits from attending psychotherapy at our treatment center. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) are two very effective psychotherapies for cocaine addiction. Knowing untreated addiction can severely impair relationships with loved ones, our family therapy services can improve one’s bond with their loved ones for increased support while in recovery.
Soley treating cocaine addiction or a dual diagnosis with prescription medications often leads to poor results. Holistic care can be a natural approach with limited to no risks. For those who are seeking a more whole-person approach, holistic methods can be a safe alternative or complementary service to traditional forms of treatment.
Addressing addiction alone can be helpful, but not targeting the factors that lead up to one’s substance use disorder (SUD) can put one at serious risk for a substance relapse. For example, if one learns the tools needed to ward off intense cravings but does not have the strategies to cope with trauma triggers, they may become vulnerable to both emotional and mental relapse. If their symptoms are left unaddressed, they may eventually surrender to a physical relapse as the individual may self-medicate with drugs or alcohol to cope if they do not seek care for their dual diagnosis.
Individuals with cocaine addiction frequently face challenges with depression or anxiety disorders. Other common mental health conditions linked with SUD include bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and personality disorders.
Knowing that a dual diagnosis can be treated even with support, combining two or more treatment methods can enhance one’s treatment plan. For example, our clients find that when our clinical team tailors the right service to their needs, it allows them to address multiple areas to help them gain long-term recovery.
Our compassionate team of professionals welcomes clients with open arms. Here at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch, we understand that everyone’s condition is unique. Therefore, we feel it is important to develop a personalized treatment plan to ensure our clients receive the best care while improving treatment satisfaction for optional outcomes.
The clinical team at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch understands that social, emotional, and professional support are critical elements in the healing process. Our expert team of professionals provides the coping mechanisms needed to support long-term relapse prevention.
Here at Plum Creek Recovery Ranch, we know that developing a strong social network is crucial to maintaining sobriety. Family and peer support can provide new coping strategies and helpful guidance and keep a watchful eye to help their loved ones remain abstinent from drugs and alcohol.
Through group activities, shared experiences, and mutual encouragement, residents at our recovery center develop meaningful connections that contribute to their overall well-being and recovery. Even better, we enjoy incorporating sober activities into our client’s routines to help aid in relapse prevention.
We understand that recovery can come with several obstacles for even the most motivated individuals. For that reason, we provide various aftercare services to support our client’s transition into recovery. Once a client has completed treatment, we continue to work with them through our eight-week aftercare program. Our continuing care program allows clients to meet with their primary therapist once a week for ongoing support and additional care.
Our clinical team helps individuals find connection, clarity, and hope to overcome cocaine addiction. The unique programs offered at our recovery center set us apart from other facilities and allow us to focus on the person as a whole, including group therapy, individual therapy, nutritional counseling, yoga, and extracurricular activities.
