Default Recovering from cocaine addiction? - 05-22-2009, 08:59 PM

My boyfriend is trying to stop using powder cocaine after years of use. I need to know what to expect from him. I have heard that I should expect mood swings, but what other things? Is there physical symptoms, too? He is complaining of muscle aches. Is the drug really ta ht bad. I love him very much and want us to get through this.

I was a bad user a little while back... the best thing you can really do is be there no matter what. He will be bi.Ch and probably in a little pain. If he wants to quit, (like I did) he will do it, help him.... the second he starts acting like he doesn't care, then he isn't ready to quit, and chances are he hasn't hit rock bottom. he won't turn around until he hurts inside and out, I felt that and never want to go back there.

well i was on drugs for 10 years and quiting was the hardest thing to do but it can be done but its not easy your body goes through alto yea mood swings, muscle aches and cramps sleeping not sleeping,being agitated, don't give up on him especially if you love him he needs you to be there and comfort and to help him through this, if you are alone trying to quit its alto less likely that you will. support is a real key to quitting good luck and let him know i am rooting for him.

Worked at a Rehab Cocaine is the 3rd hardest habit to quit after Crack and Heroine,100 percent Honesty is no way is this guy gonna make it without checking into somewhere and getting the counseling and medical help that he needs.Even if it hurts NA usually says that abusers should be relationship free for 2 years after quiting,its up to you but if you love him you ll leave him let him hit bottom and check in somewhere on his own instead of enabling him by letting him crash with you while he SORT of detoxes.

YOu can definitely expect mood swings, Lack of sex, distance, and blaming. It is not an easy task. There will be days you will realize you would rather him take it just to be able to deal with him. Sad but true. My husband kicked the habit easily but I found I did not know how to deal with him cocaine free.

I sex life went ca put! among other things.
