Getting through detox isn’t just a matter of willpower and stopping “cold turkey.” If you need drugs or alcohol for your body to feel normal, then you likely need help. Doing this without medical aid could be life-threatening. Even if your addiction is not severe, it’s still a big challenge and it’s much easier to face with support.
A program like Sober Life gives you the structure and support you need to be led through outpatient detoxification and withdrawal. We can help ease your symptoms with quality medical care. Not all patients will qualify for outpatient detox.
With a detox program, you can expect that your withdrawal symptoms may last a week to a month, typically hitting their worst within 24-72 hours and then declining in severity. You’re more likely to stick with a detox program when you have as much support as possible.
Usually, you can expect a detox program to include these basic things:
An intake exam
Blood work
Health/ mental health and drug/ drinking history
Physical and mental health tests
At our facilities at Sober Life, you will receive an assessment and personalized treatment plan so we can make the most out of your recovery program, ensuring we meet your individual needs. If you need detox or hospitalization before you start your treatment with us, we will be sure to provide you with quality referrals to programs that fit your needs.
