Abusing drugs and/or alcohol can lead to catastrophic outcomes within your life. The presence of an addiction to a substance of any sort can quickly cause you to fall deep into a dark cycle of use that completely consumes your focus, causing everything and everyone in your life to take a backseat to your addiction. As a result, you can begin to experience familial conflict, problems at work, physical ailments, and mental distress. The longer that you continue to abuse drugs and/or alcohol, the greater risk you are at for experiencing an overdose, which can be fatal.

Knowing just how dangerous an addiction to drugs and/or alcohol can be, treatment is often needed to stop substance abuse. If you are addicted to drugs and/or alcohol and do not receive professional care, you can begin to experience a decline in all areas of your life. Therefore, it can be critical that you receive care that includes therapeutic treatment modalities and detoxification (detox) services.

Detox is a service provided to those who are chemically dependent on drugs and/or alcohol. Through this process, you can have your body cleared of any and all toxic substances that are impeding your recovery abilities.

Withdrawal

What Happens During Withdrawal

Withdrawal occurs when an individual stops abusing his or her substance of choice. If you are abusing drugs and/or alcohol and then stop your use or significantly decrease how much you are consuming, you can begin to experience painful withdrawal symptoms that trigger you to keep using so you are not in so much distress. Symptoms of withdrawal will vary based on the substance that is being used, but some of the most common, overarching symptoms seen during most withdrawals can include:

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Diarrhea
  • Irritability
  • Insomnia
  • Headaches
  • Anxiety

While withdrawal is known to be upsetting and uncomfortable, withdrawing under the care of professionals can help make this process less severe. For example, a treatment center can provide medications that can help minimize the pain of withdrawal symptoms, allowing you to continue to move along in your recovery.

Benefits

Long-term benefits of detox for addiction

If you do not receive treatment for a chemical dependency to drugs and/or alcohol, or if you skip detox when it is needed, you can have a less-than-satisfactory outcome. Remaining physically dependent on drugs and/or alcohol can cause you to suffer many relapses, which can prevent you from making a full recovery. However, if you do complete detox, you are more likely to prevent relapse and uphold your recovery.
