Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Bonne Terre, MO. who need professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they must 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Bonne Terre, MO. detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug treatment facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
