The most recent national statistics show that there are roughly 2 million current cocaine users in America aged 12 or older, making up about 0.7 percent of the entire population. The number has been fairly steady over the last decade, however the percentage of past-month crack users appears to have decreased, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH).

The same study also reported that while the percentage of teenagers using cocaine seems to have declined slightly, approximately.3 percent of the population between the ages of 12 and 17 had used cocaine during the month prior to the survey. In addition, there were still at least 700,000 people in America who tried cocaine for the first time in the past year.

The Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) reports that there were more than 230,000 rehab admissions for cocaine and crack addiction combined, which made up about 11.5 percent of all people seeking treatment. Overall the study tracked more than 2 million people who sought rehabilitation help throughout the country.

One of the most difficult parts of overcoming cocaine addiction for many people include the physical cravings for the drug. Cocaine and crack have very heavy physical and psychological reactions, and a biophysical rehab program has been found to be the best at reducing or even eliminating those physical cravings and restoring mental clarity.

Along with a handling for the physical cravings, former cocaine users must learn to become responsible for themselves and their condition in life, rather that writing it off as some disease and providing an excuse for relapsing. Successful cocaine rehab centers are ones that are generally longer-term, don’t prescribe more drugs to cover up the symptoms of the addiction and also use a counseling and education approach that raises the individual’s ability level. There are programs out there like this, but it may take some searching to find the one that you feel would provide the best chances of permanent sobriety.
