Detoxification services are offered for people in Fair Lawn, NJ. who want help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure 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 Fair Lawn, NJ. detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial step of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
