Dexedrine Addiction
Dexedrine addiction is no different from alcoholism or an addiction to any
other substance. However, no one is prescribed alcohol or cocaine for medical
reasons. Many individuals who abuse stimulant medication such as Dexedrine find
that they become dependent on the drug. Their reason for use becomes a need,
they feel they need the medication to get by in their day to day lives.
While it is true that the drugs themselves are highly addictive, not everyone
who takes Dexedrine becomes an addict. Drug tolerance is basically the body's
ability to adapt to the presence of a drug. When narcotic substances are taken
regularly for a length of time, the body does not respond to them as well. Tolerance
then becomes defined as a state of progressively decreased responsiveness to
a drug as a result of which a larger dose of the drug is needed to achieve the
effect originally obtained by a smaller dose.
There is a difference between Dexedrine dependence and addiction. Dexedrine
dependence occurs when tolerance builds up and the body needs the drug in order
to function. Withdrawal symptoms will begin if the drug is stopped abruptly.
On the other hand, when a person is dependent on the regular use of Dexedrine
to satisfy physical, emotional, and psychological needs, they are addicted to
Dexedrine. Physical dependence exists as well, but the drug has become a way
to cope with all kinds of uncomfortable feelings.
Many prescription drug addicts do begin by needing the drug they are prescribed
for medical reasons. Somewhere along the line, however, the drug begins to take
over their lives and becomes more important than anything else. Nothing will
stop them from getting their drug of choice.
It may be difficult to understand how someone could let this happen. How could
someone who is reasonably intelligent and sophisticated in regards to drug addiction
become an addict? Addiction has nothing to do with intelligence. And addiction
to prescription drugs is no different than any other substance abuse problem.
Many people in the medical profession abuse prescription drugs. Health care
providers may have a slightly higher rate of addiction due to both the stressful
nature of the work and their relatively easy access to supplies of narcotics.
Clearly, the potential risks and dangers involved with taking narcotics are
not unknown among health care providers. This, however, doesn’t stop someone
from becoming an addict.
Along with addiction, there are addictive behaviors that are quite common among
Dexedrine addicts. Lying, keeping secrets, hiding pills and obsessively counting
them, making unnecessary emergency room visits and constantly "doctor shopping."
As the addiction escalates, engaging in such illegal activities as stealing
prescription pads, committing forgery, and buying drugs off the street is also
quite common behavior.
