Detoxification services are offered for people in Monroe, WA. who want assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must go through 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Monroe detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug rehab center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
