Facts

  • Cocaine withdrawal symptoms may last for weeks or months, and some cocaine users continue to feel the need to use the drug for years.
  • Short term use of amphetamines can easily start long term systematic abuse, with some speed addicts having habits lasting over twenty years.
  • When an individual stops consuming alcohol, alcohol level in their body can actually continue to increase. No amount of coffee, cold baths, showers, or trying to walk it off will stop this process.
  • The most beneficial treatment for alcohol addiction in older adults may be education, as many seniors lack information about the dangers of excessive alcohol use.
