About ADHD

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition characterized by symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. While traditionally understood as a neurodevelopmental disorder, recent studies suggest that individuals with ADHD are at an increased risk of developing addiction-related issues. This is particularly significant as ADHD symptoms can complicate addiction treatments. Dual diagnosis refers to the simultaneous treatment of two co-occurring disorders, which, in the case of ADHD, often includes managing it alongside addiction to substances such as drugs or alcohol. Facilities offering dual diagnosis treatment for ADHD recognize the need for an integrated approach to care that addresses both the neurological aspects of ADHD and the behavioral challenges associated with addiction. At Addiction Treatment Services, we understand the intricate nature of co-occurring disorders and host an extensive directory that connects individuals with rehab centers specializing in dual diagnosis treatment options. Our platform is a stepping stone towards locating and utilizing treatments that cater specifically to individuals with ADHD and addiction, offering a pathway to a balanced and fulfilling life.

Every listing on this page is a real, licensed provider. We are an independent directory: calling the helpline is confidential, and you are never obliged to enter any program you are shown. You can also reach the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357, 24 hours a day.

What to Look For in a Center Treating ADHD

Co-occurring mental health and substance use conditions are the norm rather than the exception, and treating only one of them tends to produce a short-lived result. What matters in a program handling ADHD is whether the two are treated in one integrated plan by one team, or sequentially by two teams that do not talk to each other.

1

A psychiatric prescriber on staff

Ask whether there is a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner, and how often you would actually see them — not whether one is "available".

Ask about ADHD Is a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner on staff, and how often would I see them?

2

Integrated rather than parallel treatment

One treatment plan addressing both conditions, discussed in one clinical team meeting.

Ask about ADHD Are both conditions addressed in a single treatment plan?

3

Continuity of existing medication

Programs that discontinue psychiatric medication on admission as a matter of policy should be treated with caution.

Ask about ADHD Can I continue the psychiatric medication I am currently prescribed?

4

Trauma-informed practice

Trauma histories are common and unaddressed trauma is a frequent driver of relapse.

Ask about ADHD What happens if I need a higher level of psychiatric care while I am here?

5

Crisis capability

What the program does if symptoms escalate, and whether it can transfer you to a higher level of psychiatric care without discharging you from treatment.

Ask about ADHD How does the discharge plan handle ongoing psychiatric follow-up?

Questions to Ask About ADHD. Ask these on the first call, before you tour anything or send a deposit. Written answers are better than verbal ones, and a program that will not answer plainly has answered.

If you would rather not make those calls yourself, our specialists will make them with you — confidential, at 1-888-685-2199. You can also check how accreditation works, what your insurance is likely to cover, or the payment options available if you are uninsured.

ADHD: Frequently Asked Questions

It refers to a substance use disorder occurring alongside a mental health condition such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder or ADHD. This combination is common, and the evidence favours integrated treatment — both conditions addressed together by one team — over treating one and then referring out for the other.
In a program equipped for co-occurring conditions, yes: your medication should be reviewed by a prescriber and adjusted clinically, not stopped as a matter of admission policy. If a program tells you it does not permit psychiatric medication, that is a strong indication it is not set up to treat co-occurring conditions.
Mental health and substance use benefits are both subject to federal parity requirements, so plans covering them cannot apply more restrictive limits than they do to comparable medical and surgical care. Coverage still turns on medical necessity, network status and authorisation, so verify benefits for the specific facility before admission.
