Detoxification services are available for people in Amity who want 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 reasons addicts find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 Amity, Arkansas detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through 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 rehabilitation, but merely the first stage of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
