Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the 1st step in getting off drugs. It permits a person 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 widespread mistake that a lot of addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit.

It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to learn the root of why somebody was using drugs in the first place.
