Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Lafayette, Colorado who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone 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 discomfort they will need 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 Lafayette detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
