At Heartfelt Recovery Centers in Hudson, New Hampshire, we offer compassionate, evidence-based stimulant addiction treatment designed to help you break free from dependence and reclaim a fulfilling life.
Comprehensive Stimulant Addiction Treatment in New Hampshire
Heartfelt Recovery Centers provides personalized stimulant addiction treatment in New Hampshire through outpatient programs including PHP, IOP, and OP levels of care. Located in Hudson, NH, our Joint Commission-accredited team specializes in treating prescription stimulant use disorder, including Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse, and Concerta, alongside co-occurring conditions like ADHD and anxiety. Whether you are misusing a prescribed medication or struggling with illicit stimulant abuse, Heartfelt offers the structured, compassionate support you need to recover.
Stimulant drugs work by increasing dopamine and norepinephrine levels in the brain, enhancing focus, energy, and alertness. When misused or taken in higher doses than prescribed, they can quickly lead to physical dependence, tolerance, and addiction.
Prescription Stimulants: Adderall, Ritalin & More
The most commonly abused prescription stimulants include Adderall and Vyvanse (amphetamine-based), Ritalin and Concerta (methylphenidate-based), and Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine). These medications are legitimately prescribed for ADHD and narcolepsy, but misuse, including taking higher doses or using someone else’s prescription, carries serious risks of addiction and long-term health consequences.
Illicit stimulants such as cocaine and methamphetamine are also treated at Heartfelt, learn more on our dedicated meth addiction treatment and cocaine addiction treatment pages.
Signs of Prescription Stimulant Addiction
Common signs include taking more medication than prescribed, “doctor shopping” to obtain multiple prescriptions, feeling unable to function at work or school without the drug, and continuing to use despite negative consequences. Physical signs may include significant weight loss, insomnia, increased heart rate, and anxiety or paranoia.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stimulant Addiction in New Hampshire
What prescription stimulants are most commonly abused?
The most commonly abused prescription stimulants include Adderall and Vyvanse (amphetamine-based), Ritalin and Concerta (methylphenidate-based), and Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine). These medications are legitimately prescribed for ADHD and narcolepsy, but misuse, including taking higher doses than prescribed or using someone else’s prescription, can lead to physical dependence and addiction.
Can prescription stimulant addiction be treated with outpatient care?
Yes, outpatient programs are often an appropriate and effective level of care for prescription stimulant addiction. At Heartfelt Recovery Centers, our PHP, IOP, and OP programs provide structured therapeutic support while allowing clients to continue their work, school, and family responsibilities. The right level of care is determined during a thorough intake assessment.
How does stimulant addiction treatment differ from opioid treatment?
Unlike opioid addiction, there is currently no FDA-approved medication specifically for treating stimulant use disorder, so treatment relies primarily on behavioral therapies such as CBT and DBT. Stimulant withdrawal is typically not life-threatening but can cause significant fatigue, depression, and intense cravings, all of which are managed through therapeutic support and structured programming at Heartfelt.
Does insurance cover stimulant addiction treatment in New Hampshire?
Yes, Heartfelt Recovery Centers accepts most major insurance plans, including Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, UnitedHealthcare, and others. Our admissions team can verify your benefits at no cost and help you understand your coverage options before you begin treatment.
What is the connection between ADHD and stimulant addiction?
People with ADHD are often prescribed stimulant medications, and while these medications are therapeutic when taken as directed, misuse or escalating doses can lead to dependence. At Heartfelt, our dual diagnosis approach addresses both the stimulant use disorder and any co-occurring ADHD or anxiety, ensuring that the underlying condition is treated alongside the addiction.
