Cocaine is a psychological addiction not a physical addiction.  Or, so I have been told by doctors I work with.  Based on this, I think you need to get help right away.  You have something underlying that is drawing you to the coke.  There are medications out there that can help to free you from this.  You need to find a psychiatrist (a good one who will actually listen to your plight) tell them everything and how much you are doing a day, and the anxiety that leads you to do it, and a good doctor will get you on a treatment plan which will help you eliminate your cravings for cocaine.  Be honest, firm and demand help.

You sound like me in the '70's - short story - I did coke, I liked coke way too much, I sold coke to pay for mine, I sold a Fed DEA a kilo and went to a non-country club prison for three years.

There are no physicacl w/d's from coke....and psychologically I dont think that its any worse than PAWS type mental things from opiates. Coke use can be stopped easily (especially if there is none in front of you) but if there is any in the house it will (literally) scream at you and wake you up and yell "Do me!" until you give in. This drug screams "Do me" more loudly than the opiates - some type of post use help is a definite if you wish to be successful....been there - - best of luck to to u - it can be done - eagle -after two or three months it will even quit yelling. Just dont listen the first times...

I am here. I just dont know what to say. I guess I jumped into this before I was ready.   I thought I was ready to talk or atleast type, but despite ruining my whole world, coke has been the one and only thing keeping me here.

I was addicted for about 5 years and I know what it takes to get back in touch with yourself. You lose who you were and you push everything away without even wanting to. I made the decision to live life with the same effort I was putting into getting lifted and turned it all around but I had to hit the rock bottom of everything and end up with that choice and take control. It was the hardest thing to do but the greatest thing that I ever done and I hope that I can help you do the same...lets start by getting to know you a lil bit to break the ice sort of speak..

Physically, stopping is nothing more than a pain in the ***, but emotionally it is who i am and why i live. I am watching my life fall apart. I am so sorry to burden this forum and probably upset a few people. I dont know what will happen, i wish for death often but when it comes to it. i am a coward. thanks to you an everyone for the concern. I promise i will check in later on to let you know i am still around.

  The hardest part is staying off of it. There are no physical withdrawls to speak of but the mental part of always wanting it keeps haunting you. I myself only use when someone else is offering which is really bad so I have distanced myself from those in my life. Stay positive and remember that you are not the only one out there struggling to quit.

  Good luck.

  Steve.

hi there. im off to work at around 9, but i would love to be able to talk to you. i know exactly what your thinking right now and i give you my word, THERE IS HOPE. i was the biggest cokehead and i have done the impossible, 5 months clean from a 30-40 line a day habbit. it's scary and coke takes everything away from you. im assuming your new to this site and i am so happy your reaching out for support, that is important. please feel free to message me, or post a bit of your story on here. coke is a dead end road, and if it dosen't kill you, it will take everything else away, including your soul. you can put an end to this with a bit of help. i hope to hear from you, you don't have to live like this.  i would love to talk to you.
