Detoxification services are offered for people in Blair who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted 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 have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Blair detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial step of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
