Cocaine withdrawal symptoms include depression, anxiety, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, decreased interest/pleasure, increased cocaine craving, increased appetite, disturbed sleep, and increased and disturbing dreams. The description of "restless legs" could be related to a movement disorder, tremors, or chills.

A true restless leg syndrome is neither caused by active cocaine abuse or cessation. But, urge you to work closely with a drug abuse expert physician during this current period of time, as irritable legs are but a minor part of dealing with cocaine.
