Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Leeds, Massachusetts who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 Leeds, Massachusetts 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 initial stage of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
