Stimulant Addiction Treatment
Stimulants like cocaine, methamphetamine, and prescription drugs such as Adderall change how your brain handles energy, focus, and reward. At Dawson Recovery, you get evidence-based care that starts with safe medical detox and continues through counseling and long-term aftercare, so recovery holds after you leave.
How Dawson Recovery Treats Stimulant Addiction
Stimulant addiction includes cocaine, methamphetamine, and prescription drugs like Adderall, and the withdrawal looks different from what people expect. There are no dramatic physical symptoms in most cases. Instead you get heavy fatigue, deep depression, trouble sleeping, and strong cravings that can last for weeks. Treatment starts with a clinical assessment that decides the right level of care for you. If your withdrawal needs medical support, medically supervised detox keeps you stable and monitored through the worst of it. From there you move into residential treatment or an intensive outpatient program, depending on your situation. If you're dealing with depression, anxiety, or another mental health condition alongside the addiction, we treat both together, because handling one and ignoring the other rarely holds.
Therapies We Use
Your care plan pulls from several treatments at once. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps you spot the thought patterns that drive use, while group therapy puts you alongside people working through the same thing. Family support brings the people closest to you into the process. When it fits your situation clinically, medication-assisted treatment is part of the plan too.
