Detoxification services are accessible for individuals in Rockland who need assistance coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and mental discomforts 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 Rockland detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
