La Jolla Recovery specializes in evidence-based and compassionate meth and methamphetamine detox, complemented by a follow-up rehab program. Recognizing the high potential for addiction and habit formation associated with meth, we ensure that your biological needs related to meth abuse are met humanely and in a personalized manner at our detox center. These needs will be further addressed through follow-up care at our rehab and outpatient facilities. Considering the toxic nature of crystal meth, long-term rehab may be an excellent choice to sustain progress and establish sobriety as the norm.
Methamphetamine addiction detoxification
Addiction to the drug group known as methamphetamines can scar every aspect of an individual's life.
Methamphetamine Prescription
Methamphetamines are commonly prescribed in pill form for specific medically necessary diagnoses.
Methamphetamine, an adrenergic or catecholamine stimulant primarily prescribed for attention deficit disorders and obesity, among other conditions, causes a surge in dopamine and adrenaline. This surge provides the body with high energy levels and a euphoric feeling, suppresses hunger, and halts melatonin production if taken late at night.
However, this sense of joy and energy can become addictive and often develop into a habit. Prolonged use can disrupt sleep and wake patterns, affect energy and distress levels, and negatively impact overall well-being. Additionally, the body’s ability to store dopamine is blocked, leading to depression, mental health symptoms, and anxiety, among other consequences.
Meth Detox
The effects of meth require specific attention and supervision, making sure sleep and comfort can be achieved in the first day.
At La Jolla Recovery Drug Detox, we attend to the anxiety and physical discomfort of withdrawal while having professional supervision of clinical and medical needs. After detox, rehab can begin to provide therapy, social components, and a schedule to revive sleep and wake, provide a stimulating environment next to the beach, and ultimately start a journey of experiencing sobriety.
Meth Side Effects
When methamphetamine is injected or smoked, it can create a feeling of extended well-being and increased energy.
When methamphetamine is inhaled or ingested, the euphoric feeling is gradual and diminishes over time. It’s common for individuals to start snorting or taking it orally and then progress to injection or smoking. The effects can last up to half a day or even 12 hours, resulting in heightened alertness and a loss of appetite. Lack of sleep and poor nutrition can disrupt brain patterns and cognitive function, potentially leading to paranoia, hallucinations, and malnutrition. Methamphetamine abuse can cause significant deterioration of the skin and bones, including the death of meth users. What may initially be a tool for increased productivity, weight loss, or staying awake all night can later become a dependency, hindering wakefulness and functioning. This dependency can lead to substance abuse and addiction, profoundly impacting various aspects of life.
Methamphetamine addiction disrupts social and emotional connections, causing job loss and severing relationships, ultimately leading to a diminished quality of life. The number of individuals seeking treatment in rehab due to methamphetamine continues to rise, and the influx of the primary ingredients used to produce methamphetamine, such as ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, has flooded the United States with an affordable and potent chemical that devastates the livelihoods of many well-intentioned individuals seeking to improve their quality of life.
Meth Support
Once meth rehab is complete, outpatient drug programs for methamphetamine can commence. These programs offer peer support groups with similar backgrounds, fostering healthy accountability. Gradual reintegration into work or school is facilitated under the supervision of our recovery staff.
