Ever wondered what happens when someone stops taking Adderall after long-term use? In this episode of 'Drug Rehab Reports', Siobhan Morse, the executive director of the National Institute for Holistic Addiction Studies, breaks down the complex process of Adderall withdrawal and detox. Adderall, a combination of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine, is often prescribed to treat ADHD and narcolepsy. But what happens when it's used for too long or in high doses?
Siobhan dives into the science behind how Adderall increases dopamine levels in the brain, creating feelings of pleasure and heightened attention. However, with prolonged use, dependency can develop, leading to challenging withdrawal symptoms once the medication is stopped. She explains that these symptoms can range from depression and fatigue to anxiety and irritability. Some might even experience increased appetite and long periods of sleep.
The severity and duration of these symptoms depend largely on how long and how much Adderall was used. Siobhan provides valuable insights into managing these symptoms and the detox process, making this episode a must-listen for anyone dealing with or supporting someone through Adderall withdrawal. With her expert knowledge, Siobhan offers a compassionate look at the realities of overcoming addiction to stimulants.
