It does not matter if you are taking Adderall as prescribed by a doctor or have been experimenting with this in an illegal manner, nothing changes the fact that you could develop an addiction at some point.
If you find yourself addicted to Adderall and unable to quit on your own, the next step is to contact a treatment facility.
There are many Adderall addiction treatment centers that can help you regain control of your life, without ever again abusing the drug.
For some, choosing a treatment facility is just as challenging as overcoming an addiction.
Adderall Addiction Treatment Options
- Inpatient Adderall addiction treatment
- Outpatient Adderall addiction treatment
There are benefits of both. Let’s start by taking a closer look at the advantages of inpatient treatment:
- You will receive round the clock care, ensuring that you are in good hands at all times. No matter what you are going through, both from a physical and emotional point of view, you will have a team around you that can help.
- Focus on nothing but your treatment. Since you are spending all your time at the treatment center, you don’t have to worry about anything else getting in your way. You will have one goal and one goal only: overcoming your Adderall addiction as soon as possible.
- Still have access to the outside. Remember, you are seeking treatment for an addiction, not going to prison. You will still have access to the outside world, meaning you can stay in touch with your friends and family.
In an inpatient program you are able to totally focus on your recovery.
Now it is time to learn more about the primary benefits of outpatient treatment:
- Get the treatment you need to beat your Adderall addiction, just the same as if you were part of a residential program.
- You will not spend all day and all night at the facility. This gives you the ability to get the treatment you need, but still keep things the same with the rest of your life (for the most part).
- More flexibility, which can be beneficial if you have family and/or job obligations.
Note: the primary concern with outpatient Adderall addiction treatment is that the person will be unable to avoid drug use. With inpatient treatment this is never a concern, since the person is supervised, to a certain extent, at all times.
There are benefits and drawbacks of both inpatient and outpatient Adderall addiction treatment. If you are selecting a program for yourself or assisting a loved one, you should learn more about the pros and cons. These will help you make a final decision. Either way, both you and the center share the same goal: to become “clean” as soon as possible.
