Detoxification services are offered for people in Roslyn Heights, NY. who need professional help coming off of drugs, which is often very difficult when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process they have to go through to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological 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 symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Roslyn Heights detoxification facility, detoxification services help the person 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 rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address underlying addiction issues so that the person can remain abstinent.
