Detoxification services are offered for addicted individuals in Wilmington, VT. who want assistance coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically dependent to a drug or to alcohol. One of the reasons people find it challenging to quit using drugs is because of the process 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 Wilmington, VT. detoxification 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 detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not full rehabilitation, but simply the first stage of an extensive drug rehab center that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
