Detoxification services are accessible for people in Lewiston Woodville, North Carolina who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Lewiston Woodville detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo 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 simply the initial step of an extensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
