Anything--a substance or a behavior--can be addicting for a given person; different people develop addictions to different things. So, yes, amphetamines can be and often are addictive, but you won't know until you take the gamble. And if you discover you are someone who is chemically wired to become addicted to amphetamines, that's what you'll be. Sometimes the addiction is fatal. Not all addicts can be successfully treated; addiction is never cured, its progression can only be suspended.

Yes, Stimulants speed up the body’s systems. These drugs come from legitimate sources, or they can be manufactured exclusively for the illicit market. Prescription stimulants are most commonly used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and include Adderall (amphetamine-dextroamphetamine) and Ritalin (methylphenidate).

Illicit stimulants include methamphetamine, cocaine, and ecstasy. Both prescription and illicit stimulants are addictive and have the potential for abuse. People who use stimulants can become dependent because the drugs make them feel alert, awake, and energized. Over time, users find it difficult to live without these substances.
