Cocaine Addiction Treatment Options in South Carolina
If you’re looking for cocaine addiction treatment in South Carolina, Southern Sky Recovery can help. Our experienced, compassionate team is knowledgeable in how to treat cocaine addiction for lasting recovery.
Cocaine, like so many other addictive substances, was originally desired for its medical applications. Although it is still used as an anesthetic and vasoconstricting agent during certain surgeries, it is most well-known as a highly addictive street drug that comes in a powdered form for snorting or injecting and as crack, a rock form that is smoked.
Cocaine abuse is still a significant problem affecting over a quarter of a million Americans annually. Though almost 10% of clients in rehab are addicted to cocaine, only a fraction of those who need cocaine addiction treatment receive it. Southern Sky Recovery offers substance abuse treatment in South Carolina with proven, evidence-based therapies that can help you or your loved one leave cocaine abuse behind.

Determining If You Need Treatment For Cocaine Addiction In South Carolina
How do you know if you or someone you care about needs treatment for cocaine problems? There are many signs that could indicate a serious issue:
- Physical signs of cocaine abuse include nosebleeds, sniffles, deviated septum, and chronic sore throat for those who snort the powder. Smoking crack leads to respiratory illness, mouth pain and sores, and long-term lung damage.
- Mental health is affected by binge cycles involving lengthy periods of being high, followed by an inevitable crash. As these cycles repeat, friends and families see the abuser become strung out and exhausted and develop signs of anxiety, depression, or mania at various stages of the cycle. Cocaine abuse exacerbates pre-existing mental health disorders, and those with undiagnosed and untreated mental health disorders often self-medicate with cocaine, leading to addiction.
- The relationships of someone addicted to cocaine often fail because the urgent need to find, acquire, and use cocaine takes over. Secrecy, lies, failure to meet obligations, and even verbal or physical abuse often go hand in hand with addiction, making meaningful connections with others nearly impossible.
- Financial woes are a common sign of addiction to cocaine and other drugs. The relentlessness of the drug-seeking behavior leads to lost jobs, drained bank accounts, and sometimes homelessness.
For a formal diagnosis of your condition, you must consult a doctor or an addiction specialists. These experts focus on a range of criteria when diagnosing cocaine-related disorders.

Testimonials
Treating Cocaine Addiction at Southern Sky Recovery in South Caorlina
At our cocaine treatment center in South Carolina, we offer a variety of addiction treatment options. Over the last five decades, addiction researchers have developed evidence-based treatments for cocaine addiction. These experts have long tried to find medications that can play a reliable role in cocaine recovery. However, to date, no such medications are available. But this doesn’t mean that there is a lack of treatment options. Today, a variety of psychotherapy options can support your efforts to regain your sobriety:
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a short-term, goal-oriented treatment that addresses negative thoughts interfering with your recovery. The therapy helps you develop life skills for handling cocaine urges and allows you to practice effective coping strategies while still in rehab.
- Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is an offshoot of CBT that focuses on mindfulness, emotional regulation, and communication to bring about change while helping you embrace the moment.
- Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) also utilizes mindfulness to develop the mental and emotional flexibility to manage distress without using cocaine or other substances.
- Individual therapy takes place in one-on-one sessions. Clients learn about their addiction and come to accept the damage it has done to themselves and their loved ones. They also get help processing some of the underlying triggers for cocaine use and set key recovery goals.
- Group therapy provides peer support in structured sessions under the guidance of a clinician. This approach fosters mutual accountability and trust that help prevent relapses.
- Family therapy is a vital opportunity for families to gain understanding, develop compassion, and heal from wounds experienced during the years of one member’s cocaine addiction.
Treatment Settings For Your Recovery
Severe cocaine addiction is commonly treated in inpatient treatment. But if you’re less seriously affected, you may receive a recommendation for outpatient treatment, instead. Depending on your needs, this may mean taking part in a:
- Standard outpatient program
- Intensive outpatient program (IOP)
- Partial hospitalization program (PHP)
The main difference between these programs is the number of treatment hours you need each week.
Southern Sky Recovery features numerous proven therapies in our outpatient, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs. Consult us today to find out more about the options suitable for you or your loved one.
Addressing Women's Cocaine Addiction In South Carolina
Compared to men, women tend to have a stronger response to the effects of cocaine. Women may also find themselves addicted to the drug faster than men. While in treatment for cocaine addiction, women can have a harder time avoiding a relapse. In addition, their drug problems may be related to underlying factors that differ from those affecting men.
For all of these reasons, women may have higher odds for treatment success in a gender-specific program. A women-only program can make it easier for you to relax and focus on your recovery. It also provides the time needed to address the specific issues underlying your cocaine problems.
At Southern Sky Recovery, we feature dedicated women’s addiction treatment programs in South Carolina. Contact us today for more information on how this gender-focused treatment can enhance your ability to regain your sobriety
Addressing Men's Cocaine Addiction
Women are not the only potential beneficiaries of gender-specific cocaine treatment. Men have higher chances of becoming users of the drug than women. They also face greater exposure to cocaine-related medical emergencies. In addition, men’s drug abuse and addiction often stem from gender-related underlying motivations.
As with women, factors like these underscore the potential importance of gender-based treatment. That’s why Southern Sky also features dedicated men’s addiction treatment in South Carolina. To learn more about how we design cocaine treatment with men in mind, talk to our knowledgeable staff today.
