Cocaine Addiction Intervention

Thursday, June 12. 2008

A cocaine intervention is used when a person is not willing to get help for their addiction to cocaine. There are several methods of intervention used for a person not willing but when a person is addicted to cocaine the style should be changed. Many people addicted to cocaine have different realities regarding their addiction. Cocaine treatment should be individualized and provide counseling and therapy. Also a biophysical drug rehab is sometimes very effective for cocaine addiction.

During a drug intervention for a cocaine addict, make sure the person is not high. The optimum situation is when a person is coming down off cocaine high. When a person is coming down off of cocaine they are usually easier to persuade to get help because they are depressed and apathetic. When a person is high they are full of energy, racing thoughts, and also paranoid.
