Detoxification services are available for people in East Rutherford who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 Rutherford detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
