Detoxification services are available for addicted individuals in Brookhaven who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Brookhaven, Mississippi detox 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 stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
