Facts

  • Prescription central nervous system depressants slow down brain function, and if combined with other medications that cause drowsiness or with alcohol, heart rate and respiration can slow down dangerously.
  • Methadone withdrawal is so burdensome to those who are addicted and dependent to it, that someone who is using it may think that they will be on it for the rest of their lives, or at least for many years.
  • LSD can induce delusions and visual hallucinations which may distort the user's sense of time and identity.
  • Studies indicate that marijuana can produce a range of transient psychotic symptoms and cognitive deficits, such as deficits in learning, short-term memory, working memory, executive function, abstract ability, decision-making and attention.

Detoxification - Lake City

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is simply the procedure of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not executed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detox services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug treatment facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services typically include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, delivering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehab facility which can provide detoxification services, the client will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to make sure that any complications are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
