Adderall Rehab in Prescott
Call Us for Prescription Drug Addiction Treatment
Adderall is the most commonly prescribed amphetamine in the United States and is the first-choice treatment option for ADHD, as between 75 and 80 percent of all children with ADHD see improved symptoms with the use of stimulants like Adderall. However, thanks to its accessibility and positive side effects, it’s also widely abused by teens, college students, and adults.
If you’re addicted to Adderall or some other stimulant, Holdfast Recovery is here to provide you with compassionate and effective drug addiction treatment. Our Prescott Adderall rehab treats addiction using a variety of treatments, from group therapy and Bible studies to physical fitness activities. We also offer dual diagnosis treatment with the understanding that some people who abuse Adderall may also be experiencing a mental disorder like anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more.

About Adderall & Stimulant Abuse
Adderall is a prescription stimulant that contains both amphetamine and dextroamphetamine to act on the brain to improve concentration and energy, which is why it’s most commonly prescribed to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The drug is also used to treat narcolepsy to help patients stay awake during the day.
Though many assume Adderall is safe because of how often it’s prescribed by doctors, it’s also categorized as a Schedule II controlled substance by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), meaning the risk of addiction is high. When individuals aren’t using Adderall as intended—that is, when they’re using it for recreational purposes or taking higher doses than prescribed—the risk of developing an addiction is high. Over time with abuse, a tolerance to Adderall can form and the user will need higher and more frequent doses to experience their desired effects.
Anyone can abuse Adderall, but the following types of people most commonly develop addictions with prolonged use:
- Athletes: Many student and professional athletes will abuse Adderall to enhance performance during practices and in games.
- Students and professionals: Adderall is highly abused by students and working professionals who rely on the drug to help them stay awake longer to study or work. College students comprise a significant population of those with Adderall addictions.
- People with eating disorders: Adderall is known to suppress one’s appetite, which is why it’s a popular coping mechanism among those with eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia.
How Do I Know If I Have an Adderall Addiction?
The longer you abuse Adderall, the stronger your addiction can become. This is why it’s important to understand the signs of substance abuse and addiction early on so you can act quickly before your addiction worsens. Additionally, once withdrawal symptoms set in, it can be even harder to quit using Adderall on your own.
You or a loved one may have an Adderall addiction if:
- You’re combing Adderall with other drugs: Many individuals with drug addictions will combine Adderall with other substances to enhance the drug’s effect. However, this also increases the risk of overdose and other health complications, like a heart attack. Alcohol, cocaine, and marijuana are drugs that are commonly combined with Adderall.
- You’re doctor shopping: Some people with addictions will visit multiple doctors to obtain more prescriptions for Adderall and hide the fact that they’re seeing other doctors. If you find yourself doctor shopping or notice your loved one is scheduling appointments with other doctors, an Adderall addiction may be the cause.
- You’re experiencing withdrawal symptoms when you’re not using: If you’ve experienced symptoms like nausea, vomiting, stomachaches or cramping, insomnia, fatigue, or mood changes after going a period of time without using Adderall, you may have a substance abuse or addiction problem.
- You’ve overdosed: Once you’ve developed a tolerance to Adderall, you’ll need to take more of the drug to achieve the same high. Unfortunately, this also means you may overdose if you take too much Adderall—a tell-tale sign that you have a drug problem. Signs of an Adderall overdose include fainting, fever, chest pain, uncontrollable shaking, and fast breathing.
