What is Adderall? Is Adderall Addictive?

Adderall, a psychostimulant used to treat ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), is a commonly abused prescription drug.

Adderall is similar to amphetamine and methamphetamine, and acts as a central nervous system stimulant that produces euphoria and cognitive enhancement when used recreationally. Because of this similarity to amphetamine, Adderall users are at high-risk for developing drug dependency.

Do I Need Adderall Rehab? Is There Adderall Treatment?

Rehabilitation programs have evolved over the years, both to accommodate new addictions and to incorporate various new psychosocial therapies as they've been created (such as contingency management and cognitive behavioral therapy).

Because of the complexity of addiction and potential for relapse following treatment, rehab programs are usually recommended to achieve a comprehensive treatment approach to your addiction, with the ultimate goal of abstinence and relapse prevention.

Many Adderall abusers ask themselves if they need rehab - the answer is nearly always yes.

While evaluating the need for rehab, you may want to consider certain factors such as:

• Previous attempts to quit.
• Motivation levels.
• Mental health.
• Medical conditions.
• Poly-drug use.

Previous Attempts to Quit

One of the main indicators that a person needs rehab for a drug is that he/she has tried to quit in the past, either unsuccessfully or experiencing relapse within a short time period after stopping use.

Motivation Levels

Adderall addicts must also be motivated to stop using the drug; those with low levels of motivation will often have better results if formal rehab is completed. Many different lifestyle factors, including family and friends, work, school, or moderate-to-high levels of stress can affect a user's level of motivation.

Mental Health Issues

Keep in mind that co-occurring mental health conditions may also affect one's ability to stop using a substance. Mental illness, such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder to name a few, often requires an Adderall addict to receive inpatient rehabilitation.

One of the main motivations to use prescription drugs like Adderall is attaining academic achievement. It is conceivable that students who abuse Adderall are reacting to a host of pressures that increases their vulnerability not just to abusing drugs, but to mental health conditions as well.

Medical Conditions

Also, those with other medical conditions that may complicate the withdrawal or detox process would be better supervised in inpatient rehab settings.

Poly-Drug Use

Studies in both college campuses and secondary schools have showed that the illicit use of prescription stimulants also increases the probability of using other drugs, like marijuana and cocaine.

Generally speaking, rehab is recommended for most substance abuse disorders because it provides a controlled environment to undergo a sometimes intense period of withdrawal and allows access to medical and mental health monitoring throughout - if needed.

What To Expect From Adderall Rehabilitation?

The first step at any inpatient rehab center is intake, where a thorough medical history and physical exam is completed. These items help the medical staff identify each patient's specific needs and better tailor the treatment program.

Next, a detox protocol is observed; this is the process that rids the body of all of the Adderall, and it may take several days to weeks for all symptoms of withdrawal to subside.

Fortunately, rehab centers are equipped to handle any adverse symptoms that present during detox, and will treat the patient with medications as needed. Unfortunately, there are no FDA-approved medications to treat Adderall addiction or withdrawal, though research in this area is developing.

After detox is complete, behavioral and psychosocial therapies begin. For prescription stimulants in general, the most effective treatments include:

• Contingency management (rewarding abstinence with prizes or money).
• Cognitive behavioral therapy.
• Recovery support groups.

Some research has documented the prevalence of depressed mood amongst prescription stimulant users, so rehab may involve the management of depression and other fluctuations in mood.

How Long Does Rehab Take?

The length of time spent in rehab varies between programs, and also depends upon the severity of your addiction. Generally, programs are no shorter than 30 days but can last as long as 12 months.

Each program length has advantages and disadvantages:

• 30-day programs are long enough to facilitate detox and a short course of psychosocial treatments, but you can return to your normal life and work in a timely fashion.
• The medium length programs (60-90 days) have more time built in for learning life skills and applying what you have learned from the psychosocial treatment sessions, but are more costly than 30-day programs.
• The programs lasting several months to one year are considered therapeutic communities

One thing to consider for Adderall rehab includes addressing the underlying issues that may have necessitated ace (ADHD or other behavioral/cognitive conditions). Rehab must also include a plan for addressing these medical problems.

Types of Rehab

• 
  Residential Rehab.Residential rehab describes any program that requires the patients to live at the rehab center during treatment. These are inpatient rehab centers, and they offer supervision and support 24/7.

  The majority of patients who want inpatient rehab and treatment decide to attend a base-level residential rehab program. These are the most cost-efficient for the general public.

• 
  Private or Luxury Rehab. Private or luxury rehab centers are residential rehab centers that cater to the more high-end clientele, providing patients with services outside of the typical drug rehab treatment.

  These services, which can often be found at high-end luxury resorts as well, can include recreational activities, spa services, aromatherapy, and acupuncture, to name a few.

  Private or luxury rehab centers mirror a hotel or resort environment, which can help patients learn how to live without abusing substances while simultaneously learning how to relax and cope with stress in more productive ways.

  This type of rehab is more expensive than the general residential rehab, and caters to a smaller percentage of the population.

• 
  Executive Rehab. Executive rehab centers are primarily designed for celebrities and high-level management personnel (CEO, CFO, VP, etc.).

  These facilities are unique in that they allow the patient to still participate in their busy lives (such as work-related functions), while still receiving the treatment and support they need to recover. The patients at executive rehab facilities have the support of their peers and the staff at the facility, while still being allowed to interact with clients and business associates.

  These centers are private and often secluded, providing an escape from the media. As always, treatment at an executive rehab center is confidential and allows the patient to take a step away from his hectic life and focus on recovery.

  Executive rehab is the most expensive of the options, but comes with the most amenities and is designed to cater to a specific clientele who require such discrete services.

• 
  Other Specialized Rehab Programs. There are other rehab programs that specialize in certain populations, such as adolescents, pregnant women, the LGBT community, and those who desire a faith-based rehab experience.

  One of the primary benefits of specialized programs is to create a comfortable environment that surrounds patients with others facing similar struggles and complications of the rehab process.This creates a very supportive rehab environment, and allows the patients to support each other in ways that the staff cannot.

  One reason that prevents substance abusers from seeking treatment is a fear of being judged by their peers, and with the supportive environment created by specialized rehab programs, this fear is eliminated.

Paying For Adderall Rehab

Residential rehab can be very expensive. However, there are low-cost and free treatment options that you can explore:

• Some community health departments offer free medical care, and may cover the costs of Adderall detox.
• Also, many colleges and universities with psychology programs offer free counseling.
• For those with severe Adderall addiction, and for whom rehab is a requirement in order to get back on track, selling assets may be an option to pay for rehab. Just keep in mind that when you are discharged from rehab, you will need a place to live to get back on your feet.
• You may also be able to qualify for a public loan or your employer's assistance program to help pay for rehab.
• Asking family members for help with the financial burden of Adderall rehab may also be an option, but this should be evaluated on an individual basis.
  • Do not harm your relationship with your family if you believe that asking for financial support will not be well received.

What Happens After Rehab?

After rehab, one of a few different things can happen. If you have a stable home environment with supportive family and friends, then you may be advised to return home and begin either searching for a job or return to work if your employer held your job while in rehab.

If you do not have a good home environment to return to, then a halfway house may be recommended (as in halfway between rehab and home).

Halfway houses are typically inhabited by other recovering substance abusers that are going through the same life struggles, such as, making amends with family and friends, job searching, and integrating back into society after rehab. However, halfway house residents may relapse and you must keep this in mind when selecting this route of housing after rehab.

For all recovering Adderall abusers, continued counseling and psychosocial therapy is strongly recommended (and, depending upon the circumstances that lead up to rehab, may be court-mandated). These services can be sought on an outpatient basis, and may include a 12-step group, as well as counseling with a licensed therapist.

• Then you must decide how long you want (or need) to stay in rehab to achieve your goals of abstinence and recovery.
