Detoxification services are available for people in Pawleys Island, South Carolina who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the individual has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons people 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 challenges 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 Pawleys Island, South Carolina detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed physical and emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the initial step of a comprehensive drug rehab center that will further address root addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
