Detoxification services are available for individuals in East Hartford, Connecticut who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional East Hartford, CT. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
