Drug Detox: There are many steps involved in a good drug detox
program. None of them has to be scary when you have a good addiction
therapy program at your side. Drug detox is not something that an
addict can handle alone.

"I can go as long as I want without drugs." "I can stop anytime." "I
can stop any time I want to." Have you made any of those statements,
or ones like them? If you have a drug problem, chances are you have.

There are two sides to every addiction: the mental, and the physical.
Both of those sides are equally powerful. Both take hold of the victim
and create an atmosphere where it is nearly impossible to quit without
drug detox.

The physical side is usually the side that creates the well-known
withdrawal symptoms during drug detox. They are the ones that everyone
hears about. The shaking, the seizures, the vomiting are all parts of
drug detoxification. Alone it is hard to get through any one of these
symptoms. Even worse is the fact that they often happen more than one
at a time. Serious, well-qualified medical treatment is necessary to
overcoming the obstacles of physical dependency.

The psychological or mental side of drug abuse is not as readily
apparent, but just as real. Many times it will feel to the addict like
he or she is cured once the physical withdrawals have been overcome.
Too often the patient checks themselves out of drug detox feeling they
are ready to go into the outside world without taking into
consideration the many aspects of the psychological side of drug
abuse.

Caring, well-trained psychologists like those available at a drug
treatment center can help you through all of the mental issues you
will face both during physical withdrawal, but also afterwards, and
once on the outside. Many hidden traps are waiting to ensnare you into
the prison of drug and alcohol abuse. You can fight them. You just
need the help the professionals at your drug detox center can provide.

Don't fight them. Don't leave the program before the health care
providers that have developed your plan have released you. The
programs have been designed for you specifically, and only work if you
take the responsibility of completing them fully.
