Several years ago when I was looking for drug detox, I was so confused because of all the terms people throw around. I actually thought there was a difference between a drug detox, drug detoxification and just detox. I almost didn’t go. Then I had someone from a dru detox helpline explain the terms to me and it all made sense.

Drug detox, drug detoxification and detox were all about cleansing the body from all the toxic substances I was on. whether drugs or alcohol, under medical supervision and with the help of detox medications, all of my withdrawal symptoms or medical problems would be managed and reduced to get me ready to participate in additional drug addiction treatment. Don’t get me wrong, even with medication, getting through drug detox was not easy, but I did it. The doctors and nurses were great and many of the support staff had been through drug detoxificatin themselves and went on to drug addiction treatment. These treatment professionals the entire process that much easier.

The drug detox helpline I found was 1-800-99-DETOX and they are great. The website I found was www.99DETOX.com. By the way, the drug detox helpline is toll free and they didn’t charge me a thing whn matching my detox needs with the detox center. I wish you the best on your journey.
