Amphetamine Addiction

An addiction to amphetamines can cause disastrous things to happen in your life. For many, amphetamine intoxication can lead to abuse of the drug. Some of the long term symptoms of amphetamine addiction are loss of appetite, weight loss, mood swings, sleep disorders, and various other problems. If you see the signs of amphetamine addiction in your life, treatment will help you get through amphetamine withdrawal. We know how difficult it can be to get clean.

Symptoms of Amphetamine Addiction

When people abuse amphetamines, these are some of the signs and symptoms they may exhibit.


  • Loss of Appetite - Going a long time without eating may be a sign of amphetamine addiction.
  • Extreme Weight Loss - Along with the above, dramatic weight loss in a short amount of time may point to an addiction to amphetamines.
  • Apathy - Not caring about consequences of actions are a sign of addiction as well.
  • Feelings of Isolation and Paranoia - These psychotic feelings can get quite bad with heavy amphetamine use.
  • Hallucinations - Crawling bugs are common for those going through amphetamine withdrawal while those using may also experience hallucinations.
  • Mood Swings - Violent mood swings usually come with an addiction to amphetamines.
  • Legal Problems - Along with the apathy mentioned above, a troubling history of encounters with law enforcement may be a sign of drug use.
  • Social Problems - Trouble keeping jobs and relationship turmoil may point to amphetamine addiction.
  • Sleep Disorders - Staying up for days at a time and crashing hard comes with amphetamine abuse.
