Polysubstance use is common among teens, and many who use hallucinogens also experiment with marijuana or stimulants. Our treatment for hallucinogens includes comprehensive assessments to identify all substances involved. We tailor each student’s care plan to address co-occurring addictions and underlying emotional issues. This holistic approach ensures students receive the support they need on all fronts.
Hallucinogen addiction often involves psychological dependence rather than physical cravings, which can make it harder to recognize early on. Teens may be drawn to the altered states of consciousness these substances produce, which can mask underlying emotional or mental health issues. Unlike other substances, hallucinogens can cause long-term perceptual changes, known as HPPD (hallucinogen persisting perception disorder).
The duration of hallucinogen addiction treatment varies depending on the individual’s needs, history of use, and progress in therapy. At White River Academy, most students stay for several months to allow time for emotional healing, academic re-engagement, and the development of life skills. Our program is not a quick fix – it’s a structured journey toward long-term recovery. We work closely with families to determine the most appropriate timeline.
Research shows that chronic use of hallucinogens during adolescence can interfere with brain development, especially in areas related to memory, emotion, and decision-making. While not all teens will experience permanent damage, some may suffer from long-lasting cognitive or emotional issues. DMT addiction, in particular, is linked to persistent visual disturbances and anxiety.
Our trained staff is equipped to manage mental health emergencies, including those related to hallucinogen use, such as panic attacks, dissociation, or intense paranoia. We provide immediate clinical intervention, ongoing psychiatric support, and a safe, calming environment.
