Detoxification services are available for people in Dike who want 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 main reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and emotional difficulties 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 Dike, Iowa detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but merely the first stage of a comprehensive drug treatment program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
