I wouldn’t suggest that you try to detox yourself at home, especially from crack. As the others mentioned, the withdrawals symptoms that you are going to experience are intense, and it would be very difficult even near impossible for you to do it on your own.
You should get professional help, they know how to handle the withdrawals symptoms, and will be able to get you on the road to recovery a lot sooner than you would be able to alone.
There are many facilities to choose from, so you need to make sure that you choose the best one for you. If you take a look at this site, http://www.recoveryconnection.org/drug-abuse-treatment-center.php?utm_source=ans&utm_medium=pv&utm_campaign=rcx, on there you will find information about drug addiction treatment programs, and about the road to recovery. Also, on that site you will find a helpline number that you can call and speak to a professional in the field, who will be able to help/answer any question you may have, better than we will be able to.
Good Luck to you, best wishes.

Wouldn’t you want full support of experienced staff to help you each step of the way?
go to rehab. have you seen how nice they are!?
If you try it alone, I don’t think you will last. The withdrawals for cocaine are intense, and you will need strong, determined support to break the addiction.
Some of the symptoms are:
agitation
depression
intense craving for the drug
extreme fatigue
anxiety
angry outbursts
lack of motivation
nausea/vomiting
shaking
irritability
muscle pain
disturbed sleep
Your chances of success at home would be tough. You are going to want to get some cocaine no matter what the cost, and you are going to be suffering pain. Your emotions are going to drop much lower than normal levels, and you are going to need time, patience, and 4-5 friends that can watch you for 24 hours a day. You would need to remove all sharp objects or usable weapons from the house, and come up with plans for how to react to your symptoms. It can be done, but it will be a strain on your friends, will take extensive planning, and you will not have a single person that is actually trained to help you present.
Remember you are going to basically lose your mind for a while in order to gain freedom, so it would be protective to your friends as well as yourself to let professionals help you. I would suggest going to a rehab center with the resources and staff you will need to get the highest chances for success.
You should be proud of your courage to take the first steps towards breaking your addiction. I wish you the best.
I loved a guy for 5 years, who didn’t or couldn’t love me in return. I knew he had a crack addiction and I loved him anyway thinking that maybe I was the first person who could love him through it. In the 5 years we were “just friends” he was clean for 1 of those years, only because he’d lost his job and had no means to support his habit. That was 2 years ago. He has since been busted for meth production. He was actually cooking and selling the meth to buy crack. I’ve seen him spend $300 a day on crack. As soon as he made a meth delivery, we were on the road to the crack dealer. I’m not proud of the role I had in all this. I’ve spent nights holding him in bed making sure he doesn’t run out in the street and commit suicide. The rest of the nights I’d be on my knees praying beside him while he slept, begging God to release him of this demon.
The last and final straw was when he got physically violent. I’ve never been afraid of him before, but now I am. He’s had his hands around my throat, drawn back, ready to hit me. I still don’t know what stopped him. He was angry because I wouldn’t go get a box of sudaphed so he could make more meth, to buy more crack. With him being on house arrest, I’d hafta make all the deliveries and do the crack run. Sorry, but no. I left that night and haven’t been back. Its been almost 10 days ago, he still calls and threatens me with bodily harm and/or car damage. In the morning I’m going to see his probation officer.
Part of me still loves him. I want him to be that person that I saw a glimpse of for a year. The one I know is still down in there, but doesn’t know how to get out and can’t fight the demon alone. He needs help, but if I talk to his probation officer, he’ll just get jail time. Jail may be what he needs, but that won’t help him. He has so much pent up hurt, anger, rage and depression. That’s why I think he gets high, to avoid or block out for awhile those feelings. He truly needs some deep counseling to help him deal with his issues. I’ll be the first to admit I need counseling too.
I’m just afraid that if I talk to his probation officer and he finds out, then I’ve lost my friend forever. Even the person that I know is down in there. What do I do?
