Treatment for Crystal Meth Addiction

It’s an unfortunate reality that we constantly hear tragic stories about people abusing synthetic drugs like crystal meth. Crystal meth addiction has been a significant problem in the US for over two decades. Since there doesn’t seem to be a viable solution to the problem, the only line of defense is a good addiction treatment program. The following discussion is going to center on aspects of treating clients who have been abusing crystal meth.

Describing Crystal Meth Addiction

While we can usually identify when someone is suffering, it’s not always easy to determine why they are suffering. With a crystal meth addiction, there are some signs of note that could point to an addiction to crystal meth. Let’s take a look at some common signs of crystal meth addiction. Remember, the symptoms can involve physical health issues or behavioral problems. For example, some of the signs include:

  • Increased blood pressure and breathing rate
  • Talking and moving about faster than normal
  • Obsession with finding drugs or securing money for drugs
  • Inability to handle basic personal responsibilities
  • Loss of appetite
  • Dry mouth and bad breath issues
  • Unpredictable behavior

Treatment for Crystal Meth Addiction

Using our Bayview Recovery meth addiction rehab center in WA as an example, we want to describe our treatment philosophy for crystal meth addiction. Depending on the severity of the client’s addiction, then they may need to go through a detox program. At all costs, we want to make sure clients are safe while they go through withdrawal. This is a necessary process, which we are happy to suggest through referral.

Once the client returns from detox, it’s time for them to come to terms with the truth about their addiction. It’s going to require open and honest communication between the client and the therapist. If the client can do that much, then lights will go on, and they will be able to recognize the pain that’s driving their addiction. With that information in hand, they can go to work with their therapist on long-term solutions. The solutions usually include new or better life skills. The best way for someone to avoid relapses is by seeing the problem coming and then knowing how to cope with it.
