Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Middlefield, Connecticut who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Middlefield, Connecticut detoxification 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 step of a comprehensive drug rehab center that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
