Question 1

how do i cope with withdraw symptoms of cocaine ?

Accepted Answer

Supportive treatment: Strictly speaking, it isn't a withdrawal syndrome or more cocaine would help it, and it DOESN'T.  It is really a discontinuation syndrome due to dopamine depletion, with excessive sleeping, eating, depression, anxiety and irritability, initially with little or no cocaine craving (and even distaste for cocaine) and later increasing craving.
