Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the 1st step in getting off drugs. It permits a particular person to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A frequent mistake that quite a few addicts make is to believe that detox is enough to kick their habit.

It is usually recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why a person was using drugs in the first place.
