Detoxification services are offered for individuals in Belmar, NJ. who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the individual 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 discomfort they must go through to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional 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 Belmar, New Jersey detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
