Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Bow who need assistance 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 people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to go through 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Bow, Washington detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
