Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Mount Pleasant who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they must endure 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Mount Pleasant, Arkansas detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain clean and sober for the long term.
