When to seek amphetamine addiction treatment

When you’re on amphetamines, you might feel full of energy, talkative, and confident, but when the effects start to wear off – you’ll likely feel tired, irritable, lethargic, experience aches and pains and feel generally down. These withdrawal symptoms can make you crave more amphetamines to get back to that euphoric ‘high’ you experience when taking the drug. It’s a vicious cycle and regular abuse of amphetamines can have serious effects on your overall health. 

People typically enter amphetamine rehab when they have become dependent on taking the drug. Spotting the signs of someone using amphetamines or with an amphetamine addiction is far easier than with some other drugs. For someone who has been prescribed amphetamine-based medicines, it’s important to keep an eye on their behaviour too as they can become addicted just as easily as someone using them for recreational purposes.

Some of the common signs of amphetamine addiction include:

• Powerful cravings.
• Excessive bursts of energy.
• Short periods of euphoria.
• Inability to control the amount you take.
• Reduced social interactions.
• Increase in fatigue between uses.
• Severe mood swings including aggression and paranoia.
• Reduction in inhibitions.
• Twitchiness, shaking, and jittering.
• Hyper fixation.
• Sudden bursts of productivity.
• Inability to sleep or stay still.
• Malnutrition.
• Nausea.
• Blurred vision and headaches.

Many people start prioritising amphetamines over these parts of your life. In addition, amphetamines can lead to trouble focussing and learning new things which can make work and school a real challenge.
