Stimulants Rehab

Inpatient Stimulant Rehab for Cocaine & Meth Addiction

If a stimulant addiction is affecting your life, it’s time to seek professional treatment. Evolve Recovery offers an inpatient stimulants rehab program designed to help you break free from these substances and reclaim your quality of life. 

The Impact of Stimulant Addiction

Stimulants are drugs that speed up the activity of your central nervous system (CNS). They can affect alertness, concentration, and cognitive function. Doctors often prescribe them to treat conditions like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy. 

Stimulants can also produce a feeling of euphoria, so they’re often misused for recreational purposes. They flood the reward circuit in your brain with a neurotransmitter called dopamine, triggering your internal reward system and leading to an intense high. 

Two of the most common illicit stimulants are cocaine and methamphetamine (meth). Stimulant misuse can lead to stimulant addiction, where an individual is unable to reduce or eliminate their substance use despite the negative effects it has on their life. When this occurs, meth rehab is necessary. 

Over time, individuals can develop a tolerance for the stimulant they’re taking, and they require higher and stronger amounts of the substance to produce the high they crave. This greatly increases their overdose risk and leads to painful withdrawal symptoms. 

Types of Stimulants and How They Affect the Brain

Stimulants can be divided into several different classes. First, there are legal stimulants such as caffeine and nicotine. While it isn’t against the law to consume these substances, taking them in high doses can negatively affect your health. 

Next, there are prescription stimulants. These are doctor-prescribed medications designed to address certain conditions. The most common examples include amphetamines (like Adderall) and methylphenidate (like Ritilin) to treat ADHD and narcolepsy. Individuals can develop a prescription stimulant addiction if they use these drugs outside of their intended purpose. 

Illicit or recreational stimulants do not have a medically-prescribed purpose and are only used for their euphoric effects. These include cocaine, meth, MDMA (like Ectasy) and synthetic cathinones, or bath salts. 

In addition to activating your brain’s reward center, stimulants also impact your judgment and decision-making abilities, and increase your impulsivity. This makes you more likely to make poor choices when you’re under their influence. 

Signs of Stimulant Use Disorder

You can experience adverse effects if you misuse stimulants. The signs of stimulant use disorder can be physical and behavioral in nature, including:

• Elevated body temperature (hyperthermia)
• Accelerated heart rate
• Extreme anxiety and panic attacks
• Paranoia
• Psychosis
• Violent behavior
• Seizures

It’s important to address a stimulant addiction as soon as possible to reverse these symptoms and help regulate your internal functions. 

Why Inpatient Rehab Is Recommended

Inpatient stimulant rehab allows you to focus on recovering from your addiction without the distractions and triggers of the outside world. At our facility, you’ll have access to a clean, safe, and comfortable bedroom, communal living spaces for recreating and socializing, and three nutritious meals a day to foster whole-body wellness. 

You’ll also have around-the-clock access to our team of clinical experts who can monitor your progress, offer interventions when necessary, and ensure your comfort throughout your stay. You’ll benefit from a structured daily routine that emphasizes accountability, personal responsibility, and commitment to your recovery plan. 

Treatment Approaches for Stimulant Addiction

At Evolve Recovery, we create individualized treatment plans based on each client’s health, addiction history, and recovery goals. Your plan will be unique to you, and may include a combination of individual and group therapy, life skills training, and relapse prevention courses to help you overcome your stimulant addiction for good. 

As needed, our team can also offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) using FDA-approved medicines to minimize your pain and curb your cravings. This allows you to focus less on the physical aspects of recovery and more on the important work of healing your mind and body. 

If your addiction is linked to trauma, or a co-occurring mental health condition like depression or anxiety, we can also help you work through those issues. Our therapists are trauma-informed and experienced, offering expert care to guide you through the self-exploration process and assist you with recovery.

Managing Cravings and Emotional Withdrawal

Our MAT program is an integral part of our stimulant addiction treatment process. These FDA-medications can help with the physical effects of recovery, allowing you to manage your cravings and reduce your pain. However, MAT alone isn’t a full-scale treatment solution. 

We also offer comprehensive counseling services to address the emotional sides of withdrawal and recovery. Whether you’re talking to your therapist one-on-one, discussing your struggles and wins with a group of your peers, or working through issues with your family members, we’ll help you get to the root of your addiction so you can heal from within. 

Mental Health Support

Stimulant addiction often occurs alongside other mental health conditions, such as depression. These disorders can interact with one another, exacerbating the effects of both. We offer dual diagnosis treatment to address these issues at the same time and improve recovery outcomes. 

Together, we’ll explore the triggers behind your substance use and their connection to your emotional and behavioral health. You’ll learn healthy ways to manage stress and process your feelings, giving you the skills to thrive in life outside rehab.

Daily Structure and Behavioral Change

One benefit of attending our inpatient stimulant rehab program is the daily structure you’ll experience. We’ll develop a custom treatment plan designed around your needs. It will include a set number of individual or group therapy sessions per day. 

When you’re not in treatment, you’re free to rest and reflect quietly in your room, socialize with others in our outdoor patio spaces or indoor recreation rooms, or participate in an on-campus group activity. These opportunities can help you learn and practice healthy behaviors, creating a foundation for long-term recovery. 

Aftercare Planning

Our treatment includes a comprehensive aftercare planning process to make sure you’re well-supported when you leave our facility. We offer connections to local outpatient providers who can provide a complete continuum of care and ensure against lapses in your treatment. 

In addition, you’ll also have access to our Evolve Alumni Network. This connects you to peers who have also completed the program and can provide continued support and encouragement for your recovery. 

Admissions and Getting Help

Whether you need a cocaine rehab, treatment for a meth addiction, or support to overcome a prescription pill dependency, we can help. To learn more about the treatment programs we offer, reach out to our admissions team! 

We’ve available at any time to answer your questions and help you plan the logistics of your stay, sharing details on transportation, what to pack, and what to leave at home. We can also validate your insurance, confirm your coverage, and estimate your out-of-pocket expenses. 

When you arrive on-site, we’ll perform an assessment to learn more about your health, your addiction history, and your recovery goals. Then, we’ll get to work creating a personalized treatment plan to help you reach them.
