Detoxification services are available for people in Livingston Manor who need help coming off of drugs, which can be very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons addicts 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 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 Livingston Manor, New York detox facility, detoxification services help the individual go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehab, but simply the initial stage of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
