Not sure if you have a problem?

Denial is common and symptomatic of cocaine addiction. You may deny that you have a problem both to yourself and to others, through:

• Minimising the effects of your cocaine use.
• Criticising those around you for making too much fuss about your stimulant use.
• Concealing your cocaine addiction from your loved ones.
• Considerably underestimating the amount of cocaine you are taking.
• Placing the blame for your cocaine addiction on other people or situations in your life, such as “I take cocaine because my daily life is so stressful”.
