Detoxification services are available for individuals in Freeport who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Freeport detox facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
