Detoxification services are available for people in Dodson, LA. who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people 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 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Dodson, LA. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the initial step of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
