Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Lakeside, Arizona who want help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional difficulties 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 Lakeside detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of a comprehensive drug treatment center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
