What Is Drug & Alcohol Detox?

Drug and alcohol detox is the process of ridding the body of substances while managing withdrawal symptoms in a safe and controlled environment. Detoxification is an important first step in the treatment of alcohol and substance use disorders since it helps individuals overcome physical dependence on drugs or alcohol. 

Professional detox programs offer medical supervision, support, and therapy to ensure the safety and comfort of individuals during this challenging time. The goal of drug and alcohol detox is to help individuals lay the groundwork for recovery and prepare them for ongoing addiction treatment. 

How Do I Know I Need Drug and Alcohol Detox?

It may be time to consider drug and alcohol detox if you are experiencing physical or psychological dependence on alcohol and substances. Some common indications to look for include: 

  • Withdrawal symptoms when you try to reduce or stop using drugs or alcohol.
  • Cravings and compulsive use of alcohol or substances despite any negative consequences.
  • Increased tolerance requiring you to use more alcohol or the substance to achieve the desired effects. 
  • The inability to stop using drugs or alcohol. 
  • Not being able to function without being under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
  • Engaging in drug-seeking behaviors.
  • Constantly thinking about drinking or using drugs. 
  • You no longer find pleasure in activities and hobbies you used to enjoy.
  • Withdrawing from friends and family members.
  • Engaging in risk-taking behaviors and making snap decisions.

How Long Does the Detox Process Take?

How long drug and alcohol detox takes depends on several factors, including the type of substance, amount used, frequency of use, and duration of use. Other factors, like overall health and whether there are co-occurring mental health disorders present or polydrug use, all can affect the amount of time needed for detox. 

Generally, detoxification from alcohol and drugs can take one to three weeks until the physical withdrawal symptoms start to subside. However, it can take anywhere from three to four weeks, months, or possibly longer for the psychological withdrawal symptoms to fully subside.   

What Will I Experience During Detox?

During drug and alcohol detox, individuals experience a range of physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms as the body adjusts to the absence of substances. Some common withdrawal symptoms include:

  • Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
  • Sweating and chills
  • Tremors and shaking
  • Anxiety or depression 
  • Insomnia 
  • Irritability and mood swings

In addition, when starting detox treatment, individuals will undergo a comprehensive evaluation to assess their level of addiction, overall mental and physical health, and review their medical history. This information is used to create a personalized care plan. Next, the person will start detox with the goal of reaching stabilization with medical supervision. 

Stabilization means the person has a safe withdrawal experience, and all substances have been removed from the body. As detox nears completion, the individual is encouraged to transition into some type of addiction treatment program to ensure they can sustain long-term sobriety. 

What Kinds of Support and Therapy Will I Receive During Detox?

During drug and alcohol detox, individuals have access to a range of support and therapies to help them through the process. Some common types of support and therapy provided during detox include:

  • Individual Therapy: One-on-one counseling sessions with a therapist or counselor to address personal emotional issues, triggers, coping strategies, and goals for recovery.
  • Group Therapy: Group therapy sessions allow individuals to connect with peers going through similar experiences, share insights and encouragement, and learn from each other’s perspectives.
  • Medication Management: Medical professionals may prescribe medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, manage cravings, or treat co-occurring mental health conditions.
  • Psychiatry: Psychiatric evaluations are conducted by licensed psychiatrists to assess any underlying mental health disorders that may affect substance use disorder treatment.
  • MAT (Medication-Assisted Treatment): Some individuals may benefit from MAT, which involves the use of FDA-approved medications in combination with therapy to aid in addiction recovery during detox.
  • Holistic Treatments: Complementary therapies such as yoga, meditation, acupuncture, art therapy, and exercise programs help restore balance to the body, aid in healing, and promote mental and physical wellness.
