Drug and Alcohol Detox

Drug and alcohol detox is typically the first step you will take towards sobriety.  Before enter into rehab in our residential treatment center we will discuss management of your addiction and the best and most suitable plan for your particular situation. There is no "one size fits all" which is why everything we do is with the individual in mind.  

We know your decision to seek help for addiction takes courage. At Crescent Moon Recovery, we understand the challenges you face and how you feel. Our staff provide comprehensive and compassionate care in our detox facility in Orange County to start you on a path of healing.

Detoxification helps to free your body and mind from chemical dependence. During detox, the body works hard to eliminate the accumulated toxins and to adapt to functioning without drugs or alcohol. This natural process can produce difficult withdrawal, uncomfortable and unpleasant symptoms that may include agitation, anxiety, headaches, nausea, and more. Attempting detox alone can be daunting and dangerous.

Crescent Moon's supervised medical detox provides a safe, monitored environment for detox and managed withdrawal. Our compassionate team helps ease your discomfort, manages complex symptoms, and tends to your unique needs. With 24/7 nursing care and physician oversight, we help your body heal while also providing emotional encouragement and psychological support.

Detox and withdrawal is a challenging time, but with Crescent Moon's professional assistance, you'll have the strong foundation needed for lasting recovery. Our comprehensive detox services start you on a journey of hope and freedom from addiction. Reach out today to learn more about our medically-guided detox program.

 

What to Anticipate During Detox

Detoxing from drugs or alcohol can be an uncomfortable process as your body works to eliminate chemical dependencies. At Crescent Moon Recovery, we want you to know what to expect so you can be fully prepared.

Common withdrawal symptoms may include:

  • Anxiety, irritability, and mood swings
  • Headaches, muscle aches, and body tremors
  • Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
  • Difficulty sleeping and fatigue
  • Cravings for substances

The severity and duration of the withdrawal symptoms you might experience are:

  • The substance(s) abused
  • Length of use
  • Amount typically consumed
  • Individual physiology

For many, detox symptoms peak within 72 hours and subside within 7-10 days. Medications may help ease discomfort during this time. Our medical team is available 24/7 to monitor progress and provide relief.

Detox can be emotionally difficult, and having a strong support system is crucial. Our compassionate staff will encourage you throughout the detox process in a comfortable, supervised environment.

Detox is a significant step toward recovery. Understanding what to expect removes uncertainty and fear. At Crescent Moon, we're here to provide guidance and care every step of the way. Contact us to learn more about our medically-supervised detox program.

Medical Detox vs. Supportive Detox

Medical detox typically occurs in a hospital setting with 24/7 medical supervision and access to emergency care. Supportive detox takes place in a rehab facility with around-the-clock monitoring. Determining the right detox setting depends on factors like:

  • History of severe, life-threatening withdrawal
  • Co-occurring medical or mental health conditions
  • Use of multiple substances or high doses
  • Prior detox experiences
  • Home environment and support system

Our team assesses each client’s situation to recommend the safest detox option.
