Cocaine is a powerful central nervous system stimulant that increases alertness, reduces appetite and the need for sleep, and produces instant feelings of euphoria. Crack cocaine is an extremely potent freebase form of the drug. The chronic cocaine user tends to administer the drug in high-dose "binges" interrupted by "crashes". The heavy user will appear nervous, agitated and excitable. Dramatic mood swings may occur, depending on how recently the drug has been taken. Users may experience symptoms of a toxic psychosis, including paranoid thinking. They may also become hypersensitive to sensory stimuli, sometimes to the point of visual and auditory hallucinations or sensations of insects crawling under their skin. Sleep disorders, eating disorders, and sexual dysfunction are all common among heavy users. Heavy users of cocaine often experience considerable social problems to which cocaine may contribute in several ways. Users may be so preoccupied with purchasing, preparing, using and recovering from the use of cocaine that other important areas of their lives are neglected. Drug-induced irritability also contributes to interpersonal problems, and job performance tends to suffer. The large amounts of money spent on consumption generally leads to financial difficulties and occasionally to serious legal problems. Users usually suffer from cocaine-related depression and users frequently have thoughts of suicide during this period and often see taking more cocaine as the only way out of the situation. Rehabilitation from cocaine addiction is possible. Rehabilitation from cocaine is crucial.
