Detoxification services are available for addicted individuals in Hazleton who want professional help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they have to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and mental 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 Hazleton detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional support to get the individual through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug rehabilitation center that will further address root addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
