What is Detox?
When the body and mind become addicted to a drug, your body relies on the substance to provide a state of normalcy. When the drug is taken away, withdrawal symptoms set in that can range from just feeling uncomfortable all the way to the extreme of being life-threatening. When you begin the detox process, you stop using the drugs you have been abusing and remain in detox while they leave your body. You begin to experience withdrawal symptoms as your body gets used to not having these substances in its system.
The withdrawals that happen during detox have different symptoms and severity depending on the substance that was being abused, how long it was abused, and the amount that was being used. Each person has a different detox experience and recovery program. At Everlast, we individualize each person’s treatment program to help with withdrawal symptoms and to make you as comfortable as possible. By the end of the detox process, your withdrawal symptoms should be under control. Your body has made significant adjustments already and will continue to adjust as your recovery progresses.
Will I Take Medication in Detox?
Detoxing will most likely require some kind of supportive medication. The medications are given during addiction treatment protect you from uncomfortable and severe withdrawal symptoms while the drugs leave your system and your body adjusts. You will usually take this medication until your withdrawal symptoms are under control.
At Everlast Recovery Centers, we provide sub-acute medical detox. During the process, we use medications to manage withdrawal symptoms while the person completes detox. Everlast always makes medication decisions on an individual basis, and medications are always consulted under a doctor’s care.
At Everlast, we consider total abstinence as the ultimate goal. However, we recognize everyone has different needs. When choosing Everlast, you can be sure that your treatment options will always be adjusted to meet your specific needs.
