Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Thurston who need help 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 reasons individuals find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort 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 effects to severe anxiety and depression. In a professional Thurston, Ohio 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 full rehabilitation, but merely the first stage of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can achieve long term sobriety.
