Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Ames, NE. who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental difficulties 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Ames detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
