Cocaine Rehab Clinic in Surrey

Cocaine, a synthetically made drug, is highly addictive and can have a detrimental impact on your mental and physical health. Cocaine can make you feel more alert and energised for a short period, but it will soon have an adverse effect on the body. This can make you feel low and anxious, amongst other side effects of cocaine misuse.

Cocaine abuse often leads to a cocaine addiction, which will benefit from cocaine addiction treatment at a rehab clinic, such as the Life Works cocaine rehab clinic in Surrey. Both powder cocaine and crack cocaine can have many effects on the body. Once you make the important decision to quit cocaine, withdrawal and detoxification can be physically and mental challenging, so professional medical help provides necessary support during the rehabilitation process.

Cocaine is one of the most addictive substances, which is often overlooked when someone starts taking it recreationally. The properties of cocaine can create a severe dependency in users who crave more of its effects, due to the sense of euphoria and invincibility it creates. Cocaine works by stimulating the release of higher dopamine levels in the brain. Dopamine controls how pleasure is experienced and the higher the dopamine levels, the more someone begins to feel intense pleasure, along with a sense of increased energy, confidence and alertness.

However, the more cocaine interferes with the brain’s ability to produce dopamine naturally, the weaker the effects of cocaine. This is when cocaine addiction starts, as the craving becomes more intense and the amount needed to achieve the same high gradually increases. The body and brain then begin to rely on cocaine and struggle to function without it. The development of a harmful cocaine addiction can then be very disruptive and cause many traumatic issues that negatively impact day-to-day life. These include behavioural problems, mental health problems, and physical conditions.

Seeking treatment for cocaine addiction

Thankfully, cocaine addiction is treatable with an effective cocaine treatment programme. Cocaine rehabilitation involves both detoxification and therapeutic treatment, which we specialise in at Life Works. We offer a free assessment too, helping towards the first steps of recovery.

The Life Works cocaine treatment programmes can also treat crack cocaine addiction, the freebase form of cocaine. Crack cocaine is inhaled, compared to cocaine that is snorted, but nonetheless, it’s still highly addictive and will need treatment to overcome the addiction. Detoxification from cocaine or crack cocaine can be intense, but Life Works offers a medically assisted detoxification process, ensuring that the withdrawal process is managed correctly and that recovery can start.

The Life Works cocaine addiction treatment programme consists of:

• A free assessment
• 10-day medically assisted detoxification for your cocaine addiction, if required
• Individual 1:1 therapy and structured group therapy programmes
• Access to 12-Step support groups
• Free aftercare for 12 months, following treatment
