Detoxification services are offered for people in Gibson who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual 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 go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Gibson detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through 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 full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
