Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Egg Harbor City who need professional 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 main reasons people find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 anxiety and depression. In a professional Egg Harbor City detoxification 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 individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug treatment center that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the individual can remain clean and sober for the long term.
