Detoxification services are available for people in Gates Mills who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often 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 difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to go through 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Gates Mills, Ohio detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
