Detoxification services are offered for people in Richlands who need professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Richlands, NC. detox facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of a comprehensive drug treatment facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
