Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Garden City, Louisiana who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 Garden City, Louisiana detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
