Ritalin Detox

Ritalin Detoxification Centers to Treat Withdrawal Issues

Ritalin is a legal, prescription stimulant, and is commonly used to treat ADHD and sleep disorders like narcolepsy. Unfortunately, Ritalin can be highly addictive and often requires ritalin detoxification to kick the habit.

As a stimulant, the effects on the user are similar to an amphetamine. Ritalin increases the user’s alertness, attention, and their energy. Misuse of prescription Ritalin can cause paranoia, anger, and increase the risk of accidents and legal problems. Making things even more difficult, quitting Ritalin comes with its own host of nasty withdrawal symptoms.

Fortunately, Ritalin detoxification centers to treat withdrawal issues staffed with medically-trained and supportive counselors can help people beat their addiction to prescription Ritalin.

How strong will the withdrawal be when I quit taking Ritalin?

People become addicted to Ritalin because of the effects the drug gives them, and eventually, they reach the point of no return, where they think they cannot live without the drug. When not taking Ritalin, users will find they are fatigued and experiencing other sleep problems.

Depression is also a common side effect of Ritalin withdrawal. The intense feelings of despair coupled with fatigue can overwhelm the sufferer. Detoxing in a structured and supportive environment can greatly reduce the severity of these effects. Medically trained staff can also prescribe legal drugs in a monitored fashion to help with the pain and discomfort of withdrawal.

What are the symptoms of withdrawal?

Since the intended effect of Ritalin is to increase alertness, attention, and energy, withdrawal symptoms include the opposite effect. Depression, fatigue, and sleep problems are common Ritalin withdrawal symptoms.

What withdrawal symptoms last the longest or show up later?

Ritalin abuse adversely affects the brain’s ability to produce certain mood stabilizing chemicals, such as dopamine and norepinephrine. Misused Ritalin causes the reuptake of these chemicals in the brain to become hindered, and depression can result later during the withdrawal process. Since depression is a serious medical condition, it requires special treatment and its effects can be long-lasting.

Can I detox faster from Ritalin if I go to a Ritalin detoxification facility?

Many factors contribute to the detox timeline from Ritalin, but the process cannot be rushed. Individual factors contribute to how long it will take for someone to detox from the drug.

Going to a Ritalin detoxification center to treat withdrawal symptoms will not rush the detoxification process. Depression, a serious and common withdrawal symptom of Ritalin addiction, comes with an increased risk of suicide. What a detoxification center will do is keep the individual in a safe environment.

Things like overall health, concomitant addiction and substance abuse issues, metabolic rate, weight, and age all factor into the detoxification timeline. Detoxification is only the first step in the recovery process. Counseling and post-recovery treatment options must also be explored.Windward Way gives those in recovery the chance to escape their addiction with encouragement, support, and tailor-made counseling.
