Withdrawal symptoms often arise when individuals stop using an addictive substance, such as alcohol or drugs. Withdrawal symptoms can be distressing and uncomfortable, making it more challenging to stay committed to recovery. At Gateway Foundation, we provide a series of medically supervised withdrawal management protocols to provide the support you need for a safe and successful recovery.
Withdrawal management or WM refers to the supervision of substance withdrawal symptoms. WM is not only concerned with easing physical symptoms, like nausea, sweating or fever. It also includes psychological care for mental distress, such as anxiety and insomnia. Withdrawal management can include medical assistance, psychological care and prolonged therapy to help patients safely address and overcome their symptoms.
Withdrawal management can ease addiction treatment and improve an individual’s chance of long-term recovery. Addiction recovery manifests both physically and mentally. Dealing with withdrawal symptoms can range from uncomfortable to dangerous, depending on the substance and severity of the addiction.
Undergoing detoxification under the guidance of professional medical care can have many benefits:
