Why the craving for cocaine won't go away

Why People that have used cocaine are in great risk of becoming addicted, even after being clean for some time. Drugs such as crack/cocaine are addictive because they "hijack" the brain's reward system. The "hijacking" is long-lived and sometimes relapses into abuse, when the person gets exposed to stimuli in surroundings that are associated with the drug.
With this reasearch I have just read, I am beginning to understand why people have hard times coping with quitting. I believe the best thing to do is just to stay drug free and not trying things just to get "high."
