Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Lubec who want professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Lubec, Maine detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person 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 drug rehab, but merely the first stage of an extensive drug rehab facility that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
