Paramount Wellness Connecticut Recovery Center Substance Abuse Treatment

Comprehensive Care for ADHD and Co-Occurring Substance Use Disorders

HADDAM, CT, UNITED STATES, June 6, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that often persists into adulthood and may contribute to a heightened risk of developing substance use disorders. Paramount Wellness Connecticut Drug & Alcohol Rehab, a leading addiction and mental health treatment center in Connecticut, is proud to offer specialized dual diagnosis treatment for individuals facing both ADHD and addiction.

Understanding the Connection Between ADHD and Substance Abuse
Studies show that individuals with ADHD are significantly more likely to struggle with substance abuse, including alcohol, prescription drugs, and illicit substances. Untreated ADHD can lead to poor impulse control, disorganization, and emotional dysregulation—factors that increase the likelihood of self-medicating with drugs or alcohol.

“ADHD and addiction often coexist, impacting one another in profound ways,” explains a spokesperson for Paramount Wellness Retreat. “At Paramount, we provide integrated care that addresses both conditions simultaneously, setting the foundation for long-term recovery and emotional stability.”

Paramount’s Evidence-Based Dual Diagnosis Treatment Includes:

1. Individualized Psychiatric Care
Comprehensive evaluations to identify ADHD subtypes and substance use patterns.
Medication management, including non-stimulant options when appropriate.

2. Behavioral Therapies
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps clients recognize and change harmful thought patterns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Motivational Interviewing: Builds internal motivation for positive behavioral change.

3. Integrated Support Services
Group therapy focused on executive function and life skills.
12-step and SMART Recovery support tailored for clients with ADHD.
Holistic therapies such as mindfulness, physical fitness, and nutritional counseling.
