When an individual is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be managed in a medically supervised detox center or rehab center so that the individual has fully removed the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Aspen that clients can pick from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and likely require closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. Regardless, anyone detoxing or making the decision to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unintended overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to an extensive system of support could literally save your life.
Some programs offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications 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 severe withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be required for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would prefer to be given medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
