Recognizing Meth Withdrawal: Stages and Symptoms

Just like many other drugs, methamphetamine can be highly addictive.

Because of this, it is common for people’s bodies to become dependent on meth and that means withdrawal symptoms when they try to stop. If you are thinking about quitting meth or are already trying, there are some important things you need to know. As a luxury detox center in Florida, we watch patients go through withdrawal of many different substances, and we know that side effects of quitting meth can be uncomfortable and even dangerous. Medical complications are possible, so in order to safely detox from meth, you should do so at a professional center.

Signs of Meth Addiction Withdrawal

If you are going through meth withdrawal yourself or you have a loved one who is going through the process, it can be scary and overwhelming. To help you better understand what to expect our luxury residential addiction rehab is going over the signs of meth withdrawal.

The First Few Days

Meth withdrawal tends to be its most intense and uncomfortable in the first few days. Some common signs of meth withdrawal immediately following quitting include:

  • Fatigue and exhaustion
  • Increased appetite, especially for carbohydrates
  • Feelings of anxiety, panic, and possible paranoia
  • Depression and even suicidal thoughts
  • Hallucinations and delusions may occur
  • Strong meth cravings

The Next Week

Following the first few days, addicts will start to experience some slightly different meth withdrawal symptoms for up to a week or so. These symptoms of withdrawal from meth include:

  • Weight gain
  • Fatigue
  • Poor focus and concentration
  • Headaches
  • Depression and possible suicidal thoughts
  • Mood swings
  • Meth cravings

Two to Three Weeks Later

At this stage, the symptoms of meth withdrawal should be much less severe. Some lingering signs of meth withdrawal include:

  • Instances of meth cravings
  • Minor mood swings
  • Some possible depression
  • Possible sleep problems
  • Unusual appetite
  • Slower heart rate

Typically, the signs of meth withdrawal are divided into an intense peak the first few days and gradually trail off in intensity after the first 7 to 10 days.1 Not everyone is the same, and the intensity of meth withdrawal will depend on a variety of factors including the severity of the addiction, the addict’s medical history, and genetics. Recovery is also a life-long journey so, unfortunately, some of these symptoms might arise from time to time. For this reason, it is best to enter into a professional addiction treatment program so that all of these lingering issues can be addressed. Whether you or someone you love is looking to stop abusing meth or another drug, you should seek out our luxury treatment center so that you can be as comfortable as possible during this difficult time. Let us be with you every step of the way to help walk you through this journey. To get started and to learn more about our programs and our facility, call us at 561-677-9374 today.   Sources:
