When an individual is quitting drugs or alcohol, they will likely experience symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxes. Detox can be done in a professional detoxification facility or treatment facility so that the client has fully removed all of the drugs and/or alcohol from their system and they are mentally and physically stable, and undoubtedly off drugs and no longer drinking.
There are a few different types of detox in or near Port Jefferson that people can choose from. Different substances present different withdrawal symptoms, and some patients may be at risk of dangerous side effects of withdrawal and may need closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone considering detox or making the decision to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so with professional help and not on their own. This is because of some of the health risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the chances of relapse. A relapse during detox can sometimes result in an unexpected overdose, so getting professional detox services and gaining access to a strong system of support could actually save the individual's life.
Some facilities provide a natural and holistic detox, when it isn't anticipated that there would be any risks or complications based off of the person's current health and drug history. Even severe physically based addictions, like heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but result in severe withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms subside within a few days on their own and can be accomplished without drugs of any kind through a natural, holistic detoxification.
Medically assisted detox is performed in an inpatient facility with the use of prescription drugs. This could be necessary for an individual who is struggling with alcoholism and will need withdrawal medications to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription drugs that people develop dependence to. Medical detox might also be desirable among opioid dependent individuals, who would prefer to be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or other opiate medications.
