Detoxification services are accessible for people in Lee who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Lee, Massachusetts detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 initial step of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
