Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Albers, IL. who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental challenges 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 Albers detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial step of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
