Detoxification services are available for addicted individuals in Hodges, South Carolina who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Hodges, South Carolina detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support 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.
