For Families

How to Help a Loved One

Supporting someone through addiction is hard. These tips can make the conversation easier.

Educate Yourself

Learn about addiction as a brain disease, not a moral failing. Understanding the science helps reduce blame and opens the door to compassion.

Avoid Enabling

There’s a difference between helping and enabling. Stop covering for them, making excuses, or removing natural consequences of their stimulant misuse.

Set Boundaries with Love

Clear boundaries protect both of you. Be firm but compassionate — “I love you, and I can’t watch you destroy yourself.”

Join Family Therapy

Trailhead offers monthly Zoom family education groups. Open to all family members 18+, past and present clients. Curriculum covers codependency, family systems, and more.

Take Care of Yourself

You can’t pour from an empty cup. Seek your own therapy, attend Al-Anon meetings, and prioritize your mental health too.

Learn About Codependency

Family systems often develop unhealthy patterns around addiction. Understanding these dynamics is the first step to changing them.

Our family support program is open to all family members 18+. Call (857) 312-1697

When They’re Not Ready

What If They Refuse Treatment?

It’s painful when someone you love won’t accept help. Here are steps that can make a difference.

1

Don’t Wait for Rock Bottom

The idea that someone must “hit rock bottom” is a myth. Earlier intervention leads to better outcomes. Start the conversation now.

2

Use Compassionate Language

Express concern without judgment. “I’ve noticed...” instead of “You always...”. Motivational interviewing techniques can help guide the conversation.

3

Set Clear Boundaries

Boundaries aren’t ultimatums — they’re statements of what you will and won’t accept. Enforce them consistently with love.

4

Consider Professional Intervention

A trained interventionist can facilitate a structured conversation. This is not about ambushing — it’s about organized, loving support.

5

Know When to Call for Help

If there’s immediate danger — chest pain, psychotic episodes, severe crash depression, or threats of self-harm — call 911. For guidance on next steps, call us anytime.

Our admissions team can guide you through next steps — even if your loved one isn’t ready yet.

Common Questions

Adderall/Stimulant Treatment FAQ

Is Adderall really addictive if it’s prescribed?

Yes. Even when prescribed, Adderall can lead to dependence — especially when taken in higher doses, more frequently, or for purposes other than originally prescribed (like studying or productivity).

How long does stimulant addiction treatment take?

PHP typically lasts 20–30 days, followed by IOP for 60–90 days. The “crash” phase (depression, fatigue, brain fog) can last weeks, so extended support is important.

What does Adderall withdrawal feel like?

Withdrawal typically includes extreme fatigue, depression, increased appetite, insomnia or hypersomnia, difficulty concentrating, and irritability. The “crash” can be intense but is not medically dangerous.

Is there medication for stimulant addiction?

There are no FDA-approved medications specifically for stimulant addiction. Treatment relies on behavioral therapies (CBT, contingency management) with our NP managing crash symptoms like depression and anxiety.

Can I work while in Adderall addiction treatment?

Absolutely. Our Evening Professional Track (6–9 PM, Mon–Thu) is specifically designed for working adults who need treatment without disrupting their careers.

Will insurance cover stimulant addiction treatment?

Most major insurance plans cover substance use treatment, including prescription stimulant addiction. We accept Anthem BCBS, Point 32, Tricare, WellSense, and more. Call us to verify.

I have ADHD — can I still get treatment for Adderall addiction?

Absolutely. Our team can help you manage ADHD through non-stimulant alternatives and behavioral strategies while addressing the addiction. The NP will work with you on safe medication options.

Can family members be involved in treatment?

Yes. We offer family therapy sessions and monthly Zoom family education groups. These are open to any family member 18+, covering codependency, communication, and family systems.

What happens after stimulant treatment ends?

Clients step down to IOP or OP, join our alumni program, receive external therapist referrals, and maintain access to family support groups for continued relapse prevention.

Will I be able to focus without Adderall after treatment?

Yes. Your brain needs time to recalibrate, but cognitive function does recover. We teach organizational skills, mindfulness techniques, and work with you on non-stimulant supports for focus and productivity.
