Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Ossian who want 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 people find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 Ossian detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the first step of an extensive drug rehab center that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
