Adderall Addiction Treatment Options

Understanding Adderall Addiction

There are a number of mental health concerns that benefit from the use of medications, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) being one of them. Approximately 6.6% of U.S. adults used prescription stimulants, including Adderall. Of that number, 1.9% misused these medications and 0.2% developed an addiction.
While this number may appear smaller, it does not take away from the severity of a stimulant addiction. Over 16 million adults receive a prescription for these medications, which can help us better understand the prevalence of its misuse.

What is Adderall?

Adderall is a psychotropic medication that can be used to effectively treat symptoms associated with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. This medication is an Amphetamine, which is a stimulant. This medication is a controlled substance and is a Schedule II drug.

Since Adderall is a stimulant, it can be abused by individuals who would like to increase their productivity. As an example, college students who have a large project due or an exam to study for may decide to misuse stimulants to improve their focus and help them stay awake to complete the task at hand.

If you have been unable to control your use of Adderall, you may benefit from an Adderall drug rehab center. SOBA is an addiction treatment facility that has been providing care in Voorhees Township and has become a name that you can trust.

Factors That Contribute to Adderall Addiction

There are a number of factors that can contribute to the development of an Adderall addiction. The first question we would ask you is what led you to start taking Adderall? Was it prescribed to you by a health care provider, or was it something that you obtained to reach a goal or complete a task? Taking this medication without the recommendation and guidance of a healthcare professional significantly increases your risk of developing an addiction.
If you have been inconsistent ( which can occur unintentionally) with taking your medications, your body is unable to maintain the therapeutic dose that your doctor intended for you. This is an example of misuse, which can increase your risk of developing an addiction.

Individuals who have a prescription are encouraged to be honest with their prescribing doctor about any physical dependency signs that they observe, such as developing a tolerance. When your doctor is fully aware of your experience, they can better support you in your mental health needs.

Signs and Symptoms of Adderall Abuse

When someone is misusing Adderall that has been prescribed to them, they may find themselves taking more than their doctor intended, or taking their doses more frequently. They may find themselves running out of their medication early, which can cause them to obtain more medication from illegitimate sources.

If you suspect that someone is misusing Adderall, you may observe some of the following signs:

• Shaking uncontrollably
• Libido changes
• Sleeping difficulties
• Headaches
• Nausea and vomiting
• Dry mouth
• Malnutrition and weight loss
• Constipation and diarrhea
• Increased heart rate
• Chest pain
• Slowed speech
• Shortness of breath
• Seizures

Adderall is a medication that can lead to dependence for some.

What Are the Treatment Options for an Adderall Addiction?

If you have been struggling with Adderall, the first step in your treatment would be to stop using it. For many, the safest place to do this is within a detoxification program. Detoxing on your own is not safe because there are health concerns that can arise during this time.

Depending on the severity of your use and your overall mental health needs, you may benefit from either inpatient or outpatient treatment programs. Both options can help you build the foundation for a solid recovery, and a mental health professional can help you determine which level of care would be the best fit for you.

If you have ADHD and are abusing your prescribed medication, another important component of your treatment will include treatment for your ADHD. Your doctor can help you navigate alternative treatment options that do not include the use of Adderall and similar medications.
