Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Pascagoula who want help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person 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 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Pascagoula, MS. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug rehab facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
