Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Braddock who need assistance 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 main reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Braddock detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
