Alcohol
ALCOHOL ADDICTION
Alcohol addiction, or Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), affects millions across the United States. Its widespread presence is often overlooked due to the deep integration of alcohol in our social lives, making it difficult for loved ones to recognize when casual drinking becomes dependency.
In 2023, approximately 28.9 million Americans aged 12 and older experienced AUD, with men and women both significantly impacted. Alcohol misuse also leads to around 178,000 preventable deaths annually, highlighting the critical need for awareness and intervention.
Why Alcohol Addiction Goes Unnoticed
Alcohol is a common part of celebrations and daily life, making it challenging to identify addiction. This normalization often delays essential help and intervention, allowing addiction to progress silently.
Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms
When someone with AUD stops drinking, withdrawal can begin within hours. Symptoms range from anxiety, tremors, and nausea to severe conditions like seizures and Delirium Tremens (DTs), which can be life-threatening for about 5% of those experiencing withdrawal.
Our Approach at Coastwise Recovery Center
At Coastwise Recovery Center, we offer personalized care through assessments, individual and group therapy, psychiatry, case management, and aftercare planning. While we don’t provide detox services, we guide clients and families to trusted detox facilities, ensuring a safe start to recovery.

Cannabis
MARIJUANA (CANNABIS) ADDICTION
Severe Cannabis Use is a growing concern, especially as cannabis becomes more accepted and legalized. While many perceive marijuana as harmless, its excessive use can lead to significant mental health challenges, particularly among young adults. The legalization of cannabis in various regions has led to its widespread acceptance. This societal shift often downplays the potential risks associated with heavy use, making it challenging for individuals and their loved ones to recognize when casual use escalates into a disorder.
Psychosis Linked to Cannabis Use
Research indicates that high-potency cannabis consumption is associated with an increased risk of psychosis. Observational studies have reported psychotic episodes in approximately 19% of users, while experimental research has found rates around 21%.
Impact on Young Adults' Progression
Chronic marijuana use during adolescence is linked to poorer social and financial outcomes in adulthood compared to non-users. Studies have shown that early and frequent cannabis consumption can hinder educational attainment and career advancement, limiting future opportunities.
Increased Anxiety
Contrary to the common belief that marijuana alleviates anxiety, evidence suggests that adolescent cannabis consumption is associated with an increased risk of developing depression and suicidal behavior later in life.

Cocaine
COCAINE ADDICTION
Cocaine addiction is a powerful and fast-acting stimulant dependency that affects thousands across the U.S. Despite its reputation as a “party drug,” the intense highs and severe crashes make it highly addictive, leading to cycles of compulsive use that are difficult to break.
Why Cocaine Addiction Develops
Cocaine increases dopamine levels in the brain, creating euphoric effects that reinforce repeated use. Over time, tolerance builds, leading to higher doses and riskier consumption patterns.
Cocaine Withdrawal Symptoms
Unlike alcohol or opioids, cocaine withdrawal is primarily psychological. Symptoms include severe depression, fatigue, agitation, and intense cravings, which can last for weeks.
Our Approach at Coastwise Recovery Center
We offer comprehensive support, including therapy, case management, and psychiatric care, to help individuals regain control. While we do not provide detox, we refer clients to trusted detox facilities to ensure a safe transition into recovery.
A Path to Recovery
Breaking free from cocaine addiction requires a compassionate, structured approach. Coastwise Recovery Center provides personalized treatment to address the root causes and empower long-term healing.
Opioids
OPIOID ADDICTION
The opioid crisis continues to impact individuals and families nationwide, with millions struggling with dependency on prescription painkillers, heroin, and synthetic opioids like fentanyl. Opioid addiction often begins with legitimate medical use but can quickly escalate into dependence and life-threatening consequences.
Why Opioid Addiction is Dangerous
Opioids rewire the brain’s reward system, creating a powerful dependency. Prolonged use leads to increased tolerance, requiring higher doses to achieve the same effect, which significantly raises the risk of overdose.
Opioid Withdrawal Symptoms
Withdrawal from opioids can be intensely painful and includes flu-like symptoms, muscle pain, insomnia, vomiting, and severe cravings.
Our Approach at Coastwise Recovery Center
We provide therapy, case management, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) referrals to support recovery. While we do not offer detox, we help clients access specialized detox facilities to begin their journey safely.
Breaking Free from Opioid Addiction
With the right support, recovery is possible. Coastwise Recovery Center is committed to guiding individuals through the challenges of opioid addiction with compassionate, evidence-based care.
Benzodiazepines
BENZODIAZEPINE ADDICTION
Benzodiazepines (benzos) like Xanax, Valium, and Ativan are widely prescribed for anxiety and sleep disorders but are highly addictive. Dependence can develop quickly, leading to serious withdrawal risks and long-term health consequences.
Why Benzodiazepine Addiction Develops
Benzos enhance brain activity by increasing GABA, a neurotransmitter that induces relaxation. Over time, tolerance builds, requiring higher doses, and sudden discontinuation can be dangerous.
Benzodiazepine Withdrawal Symptoms
Withdrawal from benzos can be severe and, in some cases, life-threatening. Symptoms include:
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- Severe insomnia
- Seizures and hallucinations
Because withdrawal can be medically complex, detox should always be conducted under professional supervision.
Our Approach at Coastwise Recovery Center
We provide therapy, psychiatric care, and case management to help individuals recover from benzo addiction. While we do not offer detox services, we refer clients to trusted facilities for safe withdrawal management.
A Safer Road to Recovery
Benzodiazepine addiction requires careful treatment and long-term support. Coastwise Recovery Center helps individuals regain balance with evidence-based, compassionate care.
Methamphetamines
METHAMPHETAMINE ADDICTION
Methamphetamine (meth) is a highly addictive stimulant that severely impacts brain function, leading to cognitive impairment, paranoia, and physical deterioration. Long-term meth use can cause profound neurological and psychological damage.
Why Meth is So Addictive
Meth floods the brain with dopamine, creating intense euphoria and energy. However, the crash that follows leaves users craving more, often leading to binge cycles and dependency.
Methamphetamine Withdrawal Symptoms
Unlike opioids, meth withdrawal is largely psychological, with symptoms including:
- Severe depression and fatigue
- Irritability and agitation
- Intense cravings
Our Approach at Coastwise Recovery Center
We focus on behavioral therapies, psychiatric support, and case management to help individuals rebuild their lives. While we do not provide detox services, we connect clients with trusted detox centers for medical stabilization.
