Detoxification services are available for individuals in Haw River, North Carolina who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to go through 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Haw River, North Carolina detox facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
