Signs & Symptoms
Psychological
Amphetamines have effects similar to cocaine, but they last longer in the body and the central nervous system. This can mean extended periods of wakefulness, reduced appetite and repeated dosing to maintain the high.
Long‑term or heavy use can lead to a psychosis that looks like schizophrenia, including paranoia, hallucinations, skin picking and very focused, sometimes suspicious thinking. People may become more irritable, impulsive or aggressive, putting themselves and others at risk.

Home detox can be risky, particularly if you have been using high doses, mixing substances or have existing mental or physical health problems. A medically supervised detox is safer and gives you access to round‑the‑clock support if your mood, sleep or vital signs fluctuate. If you are unsure what is safest for you, please contact us for advice.
