Detoxification services are accessible for individuals in Kathleen who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Kathleen detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
