Stimulant Home Detox
Doctor-led, medically supervised withdrawal from methamphetamine, cocaine, and other stimulants — at home
About Our Stimulant Home Detox
Withdrawing from stimulants — including methamphetamine (ice, speed), cocaine, and prescription stimulants — can be physically and psychologically demanding, particularly after heavy or prolonged use. Symptoms such as exhaustion, severe low mood, sleep disruption, and intense cravings can make stopping difficult without medical support. Our two week stimulant home detox provides doctor-led care to help you withdraw safely at home, via telehealth or in-person visits. After the detox, you’ll receive a personalised post-detox plan and up to 3 months of medical follow-up.
Stimulant Withdrawal Symptoms
Stimulant withdrawal affects mood, energy, sleep, and cognition, and can be more prolonged and distressing than many people expect — particularly following heavy methamphetamine use. Symptoms are primarily psychological rather than physical, but this doesn’t make them less serious. Without support, they are one of the most common reasons people return to using.
Common stimulant withdrawal symptoms may include profound fatigue or exhaustion, severe low mood or depression, hypersomnia (sleeping excessively) or disrupted sleep, intense cravings, irritability or emotional dysregulation, difficulty concentrating, anxiety, and in some cases, symptoms of psychosis. The duration and severity of withdrawal vary depending on the substance, how long and how heavily it has been used, and individual factors. Methamphetamine withdrawal in particular can persist for several weeks.
Who Is a Stimulant Home Detox Right For?
A doctor-led home detox may be appropriate for people who want to stop using stimulants with medical support, without needing to attend hospital or a residential program. Our team will carefully assess your substance use, mental health, and support arrangements to determine whether home detox is safe and suitable, or whether another level of care is needed. A medical assessment is required to confirm home detox is clinically appropriate for your situation.
- Use methamphetamine, cocaine, or other stimulants regularly, in binges, or daily
- Have tried to stop or cut back but found it difficult due to cravings, low mood, or exhaustion
- Experience withdrawal symptoms such as severe fatigue, depression, sleep disruption, or anxiety when not using
- Are concerned stimulant use is affecting your mental health, work, relationships, or overall wellbeing
- Prefer a confidential, home-based medical program rather than inpatient treatment
- Have a suitable support person available during detox
