Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Collinsville, AL. 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 main reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 Collinsville detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the first step of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
