crack addiction signs and symptomsCrack addiction signs and symptoms are often some what unique to the drug. Of course there are always overlaps with other drugs, especially with cocaine, but the special fashion in which crack is ingested leaves the crack addiction signs and symptoms unmistakable.


Because crack is smoked its ability to produce a quick euphoric high is nearly unmatched. Crack increases the user's sense of power and only after a few minutes of a "hit"does the crack user begin to crave another. As can be expected this near instant craving to crack lends itself to the near total addiction within the first few inhales of crack.


Some noteworthy crack addiction signs and symptoms include:


  • Hyperactivity
  • Insomnia
  • Increased libido
  • Lung trauma & bleeding
  • Burn marks (lips or hands, from the glass pipe used to smoke)
  • Bruxism (teeth-grinding)
  • Formication (A false crawling sensation on the skin)
