Read answer →Inpatient vs. Outpatient Rehabilitation
I am addicted to cocaine but I am ready to quit for real this time but I also know that I cannot quit on my own without help.

I don’t have a drinking problem but I have had meth and cocaine issues in the past. These days whenever I have even a half a beer I get the cocaine itch and 2 or 3 times out of ten if I have a few beers it will end up in a cocaine binge. I don’t want to quit drinking in fact I am a restauranteur so with wine and spirits on my menu it is almost impossible for me to not drink at all. I am just getting too old to be doing this to my body. I don’t even like cocaine that much anymore that is the sad thing – I just need it. I won’t drink with people I use cocaine with. I think that helps a bit. Is there anything else I can do to separate?
