Detoxification services are available for individuals in Maynardville who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when someone 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 will need to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional discomforts 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Maynardville detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
