  • Short term use of amphetamines can easily start long term systematic abuse, with some speed addicts having habits lasting over twenty years.
  • Students, in both high school and college, commonly abuse stimulant drugs such as Adderall and Ritalin to become more attentive and proficient in their studies.

Adolescents - Shreveport, Louisiana

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment program can be overwhelming and frightening. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend a traditional drug treatment facility. Many specialized and age appropriate drug treatment facilities have been created to focus on adolescents and their distinct requirements pertaining to substance abuse treatment. Substance abuse professionals who are trained in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your child and guide them through their recovery process.
