Holland's Cocaine Warning

  • 01 October 2007

British musician Jools Holland has vowed never to take drugs again - after suffering a panic attack induced by cocaine. The former Squeeze star has ruled out any further experimentation with illegal substances after a cocaine binge in his youth left him needing urgent medical attention. He says, "I suddenly felt that I was having a heart attack or going mad. "A doctor was called and he told me it was a panic attack brought on by having taken cocaine two days previously. "That terrified me so much I never wanted to take it again. I wouldn't advise anyone to touch it in the first place."
