When a person is just getting off alcohol or drugs, they will likely experience withdrawal symptoms as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or treatment facility so that the person has eliminated the drugs and/or alcohol from the body and they are mentally and physically stable, and of course off drugs and alcohol.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Waycross that individuals can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer monitoring and more intensive engagement. In any case, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can commonly result in an unexpected overdose, so obtaining supervised detox services and securing access to a strong system of support could literally save the person's life.
Some programs offer a holistic and natural detoxification, when it isn't likely that there would be any risks or health hazards based off of the individual's current drug use and current state of health. Even severe physically based addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but present extreme withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days on their own and can be done without medications of any kind through a holistic detox.
Medical detox is done in an inpatient setting with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to get control over the life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that individuals develop dependence to. Medical detoxification might also be desirable among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered detox medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opioid drugs.
