Detoxification services are available for individuals in Dunlap, Iowa who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted 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 have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Dunlap detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through 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 full rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
