Signs of Amphetamine Addiction*

Do you struggle with:

  • Increased tolerance to amphetamines – you need to take more and more of the drug to get the desired effect?
  • Cravings and compulsive use of amphetamines?
  • Withdrawal symptoms when you don’t take amphetamines, such as a feeling of “crashing”, fatigue, restless sleep, irritability, intense hunger, depression, suicidal behaviour and fits of violence?
  • Increased use of other drugs like alcohol and cannabis to help you relax and sleep?

These are all signs and symptoms of amphetamine misuse and addiction.

If you need help or someone to talk to about how to quit amphetamines, call us for help. Your road to recovery starts here.

There are different types of amphetamines: amphetamine, methamphetamine, and dextroamphetamine, and also related drugs such as methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin). These stimulant drugs speed up the central nervous system and act like adrenaline, a hormone that is one of the body’s natural stimulants.

Many amphetamine drugs are medicines prescribed by doctors. When taken as prescribed, amphetamines and related drugs do not cause addiction. But they can be dangerous and addictive when misused.

Misuse and overuse of amphetamines is linked to risky and violent behaviour, and overdose can cause seizures, coma and death due.

If you, or someone you love, are struggling with an amphetamine addiction, we can help. Addicts can and do recover with the right drug addiction treatment.

We’ve helped more than 50,000 people recover from substance addictions and we can help you too.
