Speed may seem to provide energy, focus and confidence, but it can also lead to exhaustion, agitation, insomnia and dependence.<\/p>

Peggy-Sue helps you understand the pattern underlying your use and take steps towards recovery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

What is speed addiction?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

With regular use, the body can become exhausted while the urge to continue grows stronger.<\/p>

Signs include poor sleep, irritability, low mood after use, loss of control and difficulty meeting responsibilities.<\/p>\n

Speed may be used to perform better, avoid feelings or overcome social insecurity.<\/p>

Recovery requires attention to that underlying pressure, not only to stopping use itself.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
