When a person is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be done in a professional detoxification facility or rehab facility so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are physically and mentally balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Gainesville that people can select from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of detox and likely need closer monitoring and more intensive intervention. In any case, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use 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 accidental overdose, so receiving supervised detox services and securing access to an extensive system of support could actually save your life.
Some facilities offer a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the beginning stages of detox. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be overcome without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of medications. This might be required for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require medication to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with certain prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be preferred among opiate addicted individuals, who would rather be given medications to temporarily alleviate opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
