Description: The powerful stimulant cocaine, which comes from the coca plant, produces a strong but short-lived euphoria by oversupplying the brain with dopamine and blocking its reabsorption. Because the "high" wears off quickly, users frequently find themselves in a risky cycle of recurrent dose, which swiftly turns from recreational usage into a serious physical and mental addiction. Chronic use over time can result in serious side effects, such as organ damage, heart disease, and major changes in mental health, such as mood swings and psychosis. Fortunately, systematic, customized cocaine addiction treatment programs enable people to change their behavioral patterns and regain a life free from dependency, like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), individual counseling, and holistic treatments, making recovery possible.
