When a person is quitting alcohol or drugs, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox can be done in a medically supervised detoxification center or rehab facility so that the client has eliminated all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are physically and mentally stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and alcohol.
There are a number of different types of detox in or near Lawrence 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 need closer medical supervision and more intensive intervention. Regardless, anyone considering detox or making the decision 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 some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it decreases the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an accidental overdose, so getting professional detoxification services and securing access to a robust system of support could truly save your life.
Some programs provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't expected that there might be any risks or complications 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 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 detoxification.
Medically assisted detoxification takes place in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription drugs. This may be necessary for someone who is struggling with alcoholism and will require withdrawal medications to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with particular prescription drugs that people get addicted to. Medically assisted detox may also be preferred among opiate addicted clients, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily relieve opiate withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
