Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Harahan, LA. who want professional help coming off of drugs, which can be very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons addicts find it difficult to quit using drugs is because of the process they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Harahan, LA. detoxification facility, detoxification services help the individual undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of a comprehensive drug rehabilitation program that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
