Detoxification services are available for people in Southbury, Connecticut who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 effects to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Southbury, CT. detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo 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 full rehabilitation, but simply the first step of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
