When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detox center or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are various different types of detox in or near Santa Maria that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not at home on their own. This is because of some of the risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an unintended overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's life.
Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of medications. This could be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be favored among opiate addicted individuals, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate drugs.
