When an individual is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically feel symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Fort Oglethorpe that individuals can choose from. Different substances produce different withdrawal symptoms, and certain individuals may be at risk of unsafe side effects of withdrawal and likely need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to get off of drugs or stop drinking should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detoxification can sometimes cause an accidental overdose, so getting supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there might be any risks or complications based off of the individual's current health and drug history. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detox. These symptoms subside within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is also the case with certain prescription medications that individuals develop dependence to. Medically assisted detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be given detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opiate drugs.
