Can I quit cocaine by myself?

People frequently want to know how to quit cocaine. The truth is that giving up cocaine without help is extremely difficult, for a number of reasons. The sense of wellbeing that it produces makes it highly addictive. People who use cocaine regularly often feel a sense of confidence that is otherwise absent. In many cases, they feel that they are not able to function effectively without it, especially in social situations. They see their use of cocaine as a benefit rather than a problem.

As the addiction grows, though, the you will find that you have to take it in increases amounts, with increasing frequencies, in order to achieve the desired effects. You may start to feel anxious when you don’t have access to the drug, especially when withdrawal symptoms start to set in. The symptoms of cocaine withdrawal can be intense and frightening, not only for the addict, but for anyone who is watching. The symptoms, which vary from person to person, range from being merely uncomfortable to downright dangerous. They include the following:

Extreme mood swings, shifting from euphoria to deep depression within seconds
Fear, suspicion and paranoia
Vivid dreams and nightmares
Fatigue and slowing of activity
Suicidal thoughts
Intense cravings

These withdrawal symptoms often produce feelings of worthlessness that the addict believes can only be relieved with more cocaine. This makes the risk of relapse very high. Users have far better chance of successfully quitting cocaine if they undergo medically supervised detox followed by a program of a inpatient rehab center in Vancouver.
