Detoxification services are offered for people in Kingston who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it challenging 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 symptoms to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Kingston detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
