When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically feel withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a professional detox center or treatment facility so that the individual has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are physically and mentally stable, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Macon that people can pick from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some individuals may be at risk of critical side effects of detox and likely require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of the many medical risks associated in some cases, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detoxification can at times result in an unintended overdose, so receiving professional detox services and having access to a strong system of support could actually save the person's life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there will be any risks or health hazards based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms alleviate within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detoxification.
Medical detoxification 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 get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medical detox may also be favored among opioid dependent clients, who would want be administered detox medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
