Detoxification

Detoxification is typically the 1st step in getting off drugs. It permits an individual to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A frequent mistake that a lot of addicts make is to assume that detox is enough to kick their habit.
