Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Monterey Park, California who need 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 hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 Monterey Park detox facility, detoxification services help the individual 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 drug rehab, but simply the initial step of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
