Detoxification services are available for people in Newport who need assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when someone has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Newport detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
