Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Abington who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological discomforts come with this process because the body begins to go through drug and/or alcohol withdrawal, the symptoms of which can range from flu like effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Abington, CT. detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug rehab center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
