What is Adderall®?
Adderall® is a brand name for a prescription medication that contains a combination of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine. These are central nervous system stimulants that affect chemicals in the brain and nerves that contribute to hyperactivity and impulse control.
Adderall® is commonly used to treat attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. It can help improve focus, concentration, and impulse control.
However, Adderall® is also sometimes used illegally or without a prescription as a "study drug" or for recreational purposes. It can be habit-forming and lead to dependence, addiction, and in some cases overdose.
What are the Signs of Adderall® Addiction?
It's important to recognize the signs of Adderall® addiction, as it can have serious consequences for your health and well-being. If you or someone you know is struggling with Adderall® misuse, seeking professional help is crucial. Here are some common signs of Adderall® addiction to watch out for:

How is Adderall® Addiction Treated?
We understand that Adderall® addiction is a complex disease that requires comprehensive and individualized care. Our treatment programs are tailored to meet each patient's unique needs and may involve a combination of the following approaches:
- DETOXIFICATION
For those with severe Adderall® dependence, medically supervised detox may be the first step. This helps manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably as the body clears itself of the drug.
- THERAPY
- Individual Therapy: Provides a safe space to explore the underlying causes of addiction, develop coping mechanisms, and build relapse prevention skills.
- Group Therapy: Offers peer support and shared experiences, helping individuals realize they are not alone in their recovery journey.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors associated with Adderall® use.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, skills that are often helpful for those with addiction.
- Family Therapy: Involves loved ones in the recovery process, helping repair relationships and build a supportive home environment.
- MEDICATION-ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT):
While there are no FDA-approved medications specifically for Adderall® addiction, certain medications can help manage withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and co-occurring mental health conditions.
- HOLISTIC THERAPY
We may incorporate holistic therapies like yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices to promote overall well-being and support long-term recovery.

Recovery is an ongoing process. We provide comprehensive aftercare planning, including sober living arrangements, support groups, and ongoing therapy to help individuals maintain sobriety and prevent relapse.
