Detoxification services are accessible for people in Espanola, New Mexico who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Espanola, New Mexico detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through 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 first stage of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
