Detoxification services are available for people in Elwell who need 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 reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological discomforts 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 Elwell detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
