Understanding Drug and Alcohol Addiction
There’s been an unfortunate stigma attached to people who suffer from drug and alcohol addiction in past times as well as recent years – and that ultimately comes from a lack of understanding. These aren’t pleasant matters, obviously, but an addiction to drugs or alcohol doesn’t suggest a bad character, a lot of the time addiction is a simple result of circumstances. It only takes exposure to drugs or alcohol for a relatively short period of time for an addiction to latch on, and once it has you hooked, it can be very hard to shake. Addiction, then, is when you’re not able to stop your use of a substance.
 
Risks of Drug and Alcohol Addiction
So, if you’ve found yourself dependent on drugs or alcohol, how does that put you at risk? In short, it can prove devastating to your health – in both a physical and mental capacity. Alcohol addictions commonly end up causing chronic health conditions, substantial weight gain, and even death is possible. Drug addictions are similarly damaging, with very similar outcomes – but the potential for your brain chemistry to be altered in a harmful fashion is also possible. Beyond your health, addiction is also likely to empty your bank account, and it could cause serious issues in your relationships with a partner, friends, or your family. The overall effect on your life is certainly negative.
 
What is a Detox?
When you’re addicted to a substance, your body begins to transform, and ultimately it’ll become dependent on the substance that you’re addicted to. A detoxification (detox) process is where the substance in question is completely removed from the body, with every trace eliminated. With this gradual withdrawal, the body needs to adapt to the new circumstances, and this results in withdrawal symptoms. This certainly isn’t a process that you should aim to do on your own.

But we make it our goal to reduce the impact of withdrawal symptoms through a controlled and measured detox process.
