Detoxification services are available for people in Glenwood Landing, New York who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Glenwood Landing detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
