Alcohol and Drug Detoxification Withdrawal Symptoms

Research on substance withdrawal shows that when you abruptly stop using different drugs and/or alcohol, you might have a wide variety of symptoms; these symptoms - as well as their intensity - will vary from one client to the other.

Some things that could potentially influence your withdrawal experience as you undergo detoxification include:

The length of time you have been addicted; if it was for an extended time, withdrawal may be more severe.

The types of substances you misused; in many situations, you will find that those who are addicted to more than one substance might experience unique withdrawal with a constellation of unusual symptoms because one substance could exacerbate the other.

The amount of drugs or alcohol you used to abuse when you enrolled in the detoxification facility in Alakanuk, Alaska. Many people experience tolerance after abusing drugs for a long time; as such, they may have to increase their usual dose incrementally to feel the effects that they want. Unfortunately, these higher amounts used might eventually cause intense and severe withdrawal when you decide to stop using.

The existence of any co-occurring mental and physical health disorders; people with mental health issues like anxiety or physical issues like insomnia and chronic pain may experience amplified withdrawal symptoms.

The half life of the drugs; short-acting drugs cause more immediate withdrawal symptoms whereas long-acting substances may cause your withdrawal syndrome to be delayed for several hours or days.

Recent studies on addiction rehab show that when you go through detoxification, you may develop any of the following withdrawal symptoms:

  • Irritability
  • Flu symptoms, which could include runny nose, nausea, vomiting, and headache
  • Mood fluctuations
  • Sweating
  • Insomnia
  • Shaking
  • Tremors
  • Agitation
  • Cravings
  • Chills

Finally, it is important that you undergo detoxification in an accredited program in Alakanuk to insure that all these potential withdrawal symptoms are managed and that you do not give in to the temptation to relapse.
