Detoxification services are available for addicted individuals in Winslow, Illinois who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts 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 emotional 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 depression and anxiety. In a professional Winslow detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional support to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug treatment facility that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
