Detoxification services are offered for people in Duke, MO. who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Duke, MO. detox facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
