Who Needs Detox?
Detoxification is a process that takes some time. Your body has to process the toxins from the drugs you’ve consumed and then remove them from your system. Then, your body has to work through intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms before breaking your dependency on the drugs. There is a process of healing that needs to take place during this process. What you’ll see right away is that detox is hard work, and no one can tell you that it’s not. However, there are methods available to you within detox programs like ours that make it a bit easier to manage.
You may need detox for a range of reasons, including:
- Trying to stop using and could not stop
- Having intense withdrawal cravings when you don’t use
- Using highly addictive and dangerous drugs to detox from
- Overdosing on the substance in the past
- Using substances for a long period of time
Medication-Assisted Detox
At the heart of the process of using our detox programs is having access to medications. Medications are available to help break your dependence on the drugs while also reducing the withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms can be intense and, in many situations, can lead to relapse, so medications are often an essential part of detox.
They also help to make it a bit easier on you. In medication-assisted detox, you can get the support and guidance you need while medications help ease those symptoms of pain, cravings, and agitation. These medications help you to avoid relapsing.
What Happens During a Detox Program?
It’s not what you see on television. You’re not locked up, but instead living in a safe and comfortable community environment. You’ll be able to have privacy and gain access to the care you need, which includes beginning the therapy process. Most of the time, you’ll be able to start working on therapy, including numerous evidence-based and holistic programs. That means the healing in all areas is happening sooner.
You’ll feel safe here. You don’t have to be afraid of what’s unknown because you know everything that will happen and what to expect throughout the process. That can provide you with the very best level of peace of mind.
