The areas where cocaine blocks one of the main substances that regulate mood, dopamine is reabsorbed when not in use interspersion space (space between each neuronal connection).

As this dopamine is not reabsorbed, this excess continues to act and stimulating the neurons, then when the brain is fooled by this excess dopamine artificial signals to decrease their production, not knowing really what happens is another thing, is not to be manufactured much, but that cocaine causes an artificial increase of the neurotransmitter.

Until recently, no one believed that cocaine was so addictive. But it is. Not degenerate physically, is not a marginal drug-indeed, is quite expensive, and its dependence is slow. So flirting over the abuse is subtle, coca gradually hooked, as the worm that announcement coming up slowly through the nostrils. However, hooks so that when the person recognizes they have a problem, it’s been years since the first day I tried a line, and rehabilitation is slow, much like his addiction.

Cocaine is undoubtedly Drug century. According to data from the last report of the Spanish Observatory on Drugs (2005), 52,128 people have been treated in approved (over 600), of which 41.5% was for cocaine. The Government is aware of the problem, therefore, the budget of the National Plan on Drugs (PNSD) in 2006 was 45 million euros, to which regions should be added and other institutions. In total it is estimated that Spain spends about 400 million euros to the fight against drugs.

If you look at the results of the survey that appears on this site, the majority of respondents opting for cocaine to “continue the party.” I ask, would it be impossible to continue the party without that substance so addictive? I think we have a problem, and it seems that the lack of daring and courage vital-perhaps we should read something else, or for the first time, Nietzsche – causes us to live immersed in a routine

numbing, boring, without much encouragement, stiff and serious, or disenchanted with what we have built or social or personal histories in which we’ve gotten. Of course, when life has little meaning, the party becomes the only way to “feel” a little more, let go of our mental chains, to laugh, to hug, to awaken the ability to seduce … then would not matter that instead of living like a mummy boring / a during the week and then give full rein to alcohol and cocaine (usually go together) you dare to change your reality? Sure, but it requires other attitudes, and overall reforms or vital revolution that many dare not think. You know that cocaine masks your real emotions, you may feel empty, shyness or complex? Do you really think that there is nothing you can fill, or anything you can do to change? And if it would be that after all this lies a person with great potential, or a high sensitivity or high intelligence, or someone who needs to feel and sense of truth, or an innovative business? Cocaine overflowing just who consumes, ruining all their life chances, preventing plant frankly to the world.

I, who believe in a lifestyle free and open, where everyone has and should find its place, I think it is so absurd that many people become dormant is hidden or can be released only by the drug. In my professional experience as a therapist I have helped many people to stop using cocaine barely talk about it, simply removing the layers covering their “being” (as Michelangelo said Buonarroti when asked how he managed to carve a perfect work as “piety” and said that that he had simply remove the stone that covered it.) Cocaine symbolizes a kind of costume you use to live. If you take off the costume you leave forever, but that requires boldness and zest for life, much more than repression or containment.

A significant proportion of society uses drugs such as cocaine to escape from problems or complicated situations of everyday life. These addictions require cessation therapy after cocaine, ecstasy, anxiolytics, etc.. Pre FAQ therapy for quitting cocaine. Are we aware that a large part of the Western population need drugs (“drugs” in English) to work, whether legal (anxiolytics, antidepressants, etc..) Or illegal (cocaine, ecstasy, etc..)? Why the human body to certain substances used in some cases very detrimental, to support its existence or to produce pleasurable feelings or emotions that eventually will turn against you?

Have we created a system of life so hard, so far from nature and to bear ourselves that we have to make products harmful to our health and the medium to long term, we are forced to follow the treatment of addictions?

Having forgotten our creative ability, in the sense of transformation, our connection with the body, emotions, spirit and earth, different feelings can get hold of us: the feeling of living in the deepest monotony, in a structure rigid but effective or stagnant emotions that can make us believe that nothing makes sense. Agencies to use only drag us into a future of addiction treatment to get rid of them. Read the rest of this entry »

The decision regarding the same consumer for treatment of addiction to cocaine is highly unlikely.

Cocaine causes serious damage to health from the first use. The most immediate effects are excitement, anxiety, decreased fatigue, euphoria, feeling of physical strength and increased sex drive. Dilation and increased blood pressure. At higher doses of cocaine produces hallucinations, delusions and depression.

Once consumption is constant is weight loss, weakness, sinusitis, nasal septum perforation, paleness, dizziness, vomiting and a lot of excitability.

This causes a strong instability in its environment and itself, generating innumerable problems to reconcile two ways of life are incompatible.
