At Clear Behavioral Health in Los Angeles, we help individuals recover from addiction and mental health disorders.

What Is ADD/ADHD?

ADD, known as attention deficit disorder, and ADHD, known as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, are related disorders that are among the most common mental health disorders. While usually diagnosed in childhood, some people are not diagnosed until adulthood. It’s a complex brain disorder that hinders a person’s self-management abilities and impacts executive functioning.

It is most commonly diagnosed in children when it causes disruption in the classroom. Some symptoms of ADD/ADHD in children include an inability to stay focused, excessive movement, and impulsivity. If the condition is not diagnosed during childhood, symptoms in adults tend to manifest as disorganization, poor time management, restlessness, and high levels of frustration.

Signs and Symptoms of ADD/ADHD

As an adult, it is not uncommon to be able to recognize your own symptoms of ADD/ADHD. These signs can present themselves as impulsive decisions, feeling easily distracted, or being unable to build close functioning relationships with others. 

Symptoms of ADD/ADHD include:

  • Loss of interest, difficulty maintaining focus even when a task is required
  • Project or task avoidance
  • Easily distracted by nearby noise or people moving
  • Restlessness or squirming after extended periods of inactivity
  • Difficulty focusing on one task
  • Memory loss
  • Difficulty concentrating on a person or thing
  • Impulsive decision making before considering the implications of that decision
  • Over involvement in things that you enjoy doing and not stopping to take a break
  • The tendency to lose things often

What Happens in an ADD/ADHD Treatment Center?

Treatments for ADD/ADHD differ between recovery centers. Our approach at Clear Behavioral Health is unlike the standard. We tailor our treatment plans to the individual. Every person with ADD/ADHD struggles differently and needs targeted attention. A couple of methods we use regularly are:

Nutrition Habits

Most people neglect to recognize some of the factors contributing to the severity of ADD/ADHD. Because of chemical additives, excess sugar, and processed oils in many foods, your ADD/ADHD symptoms may be heightened.

At Clear Behavioral Health, we can help you by creating a personalized meal plan that meets all of your dietary needs while cutting down on additives and sugar. We will also provide an exercise regimen to keep you moving and release stress. We’ll conduct frequent health screenings that provide our team with a clearer understanding of how to approach your wellness. Our team believes overall wellness plays a huge role in coping with ADD/ADHD.

Addiction Control

Dependence on technology, a sedentary lifestyle, and addiction to drugs and alcohol can also heighten ADD/ADHD symptoms. If you let these factors run rampant, your ADD/ADHD may spin out of control. We work closely with our patients to identify their inhibitors. Therefore, we directly target these issues and treat ADD/ADHD from its source.

With a program targeted toward your specific obstacles, Clear Behavioral Health helps you change your lifestyle and outlook on life. There are many facets to ADD/ADHD, but our team is prepared to help you manage each one. Call Clear Behavioral Health today to learn more about our personalized approach.

Dual Recovery

If people living with ADD/ADHD also struggle with substance abuse, a dual recovery program is the best course of treatment. It addresses both disorders and how they are intrinsically linked to each other, working to find a method of cutting the ties.

For people suffering from ADD/ADHD and addiction, it’s important to manage anger. By learning to work through your emotions, you can avoid relapse and minimize impulsivity and high-risk behavior. Clear Behavioral Health believes this is a critical aspect of managing ADD/ADHD symptoms.

With a dual recovery program, patients can learn to cope with both disorders by managing each issue in relation to the other.

Nurturing Relationships

Another way to manage both ADD/ADHD and addiction is by nurturing relationships. Our programs at Clear Behavioral Health allow patients to do this by immersing them in a community of individuals who are learning to control their conditions and addictions too.

Our program promotes self-care, positive actions, and physical health. We help our patients make better judgments. They take control of behaviors that otherwise are detrimental to their health. We help our patients reach a point of mental clarity that makes it easier for them to be self-sufficient.

What people are saying.

  • I can’t say enough good things about Clear Behavioral Health. The care that I received was exceptional. The staff are very professional and committed to providing outstanding treatment. They go out of their way to cultivate an atmosphere of compassion, awareness, and recovery.

  • The multi-pronged approach; the counselors, individual therapy, nutrition, sympathetic/empathetic counselors of each group session shifted my brain paths. You are never finished there, even when you “graduate”, they hold alumni group sessions when you feel you need it. I have nothing but gratitude for their program.

  • Clear Behavioral Health is my second family that I never knew I had that supported me and continues to passionately support the sober community. The therapists, counselors and group facilitators have been amazing in helping me have a voice, loving myself again, and seeing the world in a new light. I am eternally grateful.

    Liz R.
  • From the get go, the staff made me feel welcome and were all very friendly. My therapist and case manager were also very helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. I found that the somatic therapy was the most valuable for me, the therapist who ran those groups was great. My biggest takeaway from treatment was to take the time to pause, not be afraid to ask for help, and not worry about things in the moment. If you are looking for meaningful change and being part of a new and supportive community, then Clear Behavioral Health is the right fit.

  • Overall I loved the experience and did not want to leave. The staff was very helpful and motivated me to stay even when I felt like running away. I also built meaningful connections with my therapist and case manager who gave me a lot of useful advice and are still supporting me today. Since leaving, my family and sponsor have noticed a big difference, and I could not recommend a more supportive environment for addiction and mental health treatment, Clear saved my life.
