Detoxification

The initial step of our rehabilitation program is our detox process. After an individual has used drugs regularly for a period of time a physical dependence develops for the drug. When this happens it can be not medically safe to abruptly stop using the drug without supervision from a medically monitored detoxification program. Addictive drugs such as alcohol, cocaine, heroin, meth, xanax, vicodin and others produce a wide variety of withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, agitation, insomnia, muscle aches, sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, cramping, nausea, lethargy and other symptoms.

At Drug Rehab Atlantic City we offer the often necessary medical assistance to make our clients as safe and comfortable as possible in the withdrawal process. We provide 24 hour care and support during this very important first step in the rehabilitation process. Program participants typically express that they feel a great sense of accomplishment after they have completed our detoxification process.

A vital part of recovering from addiction is to realize that you have a problem. An individual who refuses to accept they are addicted cannot take strides to fix the problem they deny they have. For many people, when it comes to taking a honest look into their addiction situation, along with that requires also to try to figure out how and why it developed in the first place. Addiction commonly happens when a person uses a substance to self-medicate in order to handle negative thoughts, feelings, and emotions. If a person doesn't learn the underlying issues guiding their addiction and does not receive help, it will be almost impossible for them to fully recover from their addiction.

Accepting that you have a problem is a very vital first step of recovery from alcohol addiction or drug abuse. In addition you must also have the desire to put forth the effort to change it. Taking a look at all the reasons for making a change keep you focused and motivated on recovery. Many find it helpful to write down the reasons why they want to put an end to their addiction. Reasons might include wanting to be a better mother/father, be a happier person overall, to be the person you really want to be, repair damaged relationships, to improve your health, or to reverse other negative situations that addiction causes.

Do not just concentrate and be absorbed on the problems as a result of your addiction, because focusing too much on the negative consequences of the past usually makes one feel hopeless. Rather, focus on your future and the recovery process. Focus on the positive things that are sure to happen when you have recovered from addiction.
