Detoxification services are offered for people in Pike who need 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 challenging 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 Pike, New York detox facility, detoxification services help the person go through this process as safely as possible and provide the needed medical and emotional assistance to get the person through detoxification without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but simply the first step of an extensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the individual can remain abstinent.
