Residential Detox and Inpatient Support for a Safe, Stabilizing Start

Whether you are experiencing challenges with alcohol addiction, prescription drugs, opioid drugs, benzodiazepines, stimulants, or other illicit drugs, detox is a crucial first step toward long-term recovery. Detoxification, or medical detox, is the process of clearing any drugs or alcohol from your system. Many people consider going cold turkey or detoxing alone, but the detoxification process is complex and unique to each person based on factors like:

  • How often you abuse substances
  • What substances you abuse
  • How much of these substances you consume
  • Co-occurring disorders
Each factor contributes to the physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms that impact your well-being. Thus, the safest, most comfortable, and effective form of detoxification is medical detox with supervised care. 

We know how painful and uncomfortable detox and withdrawal symptoms can be. As a result, at Profound Treatment, we have designed our detoxification services with a focus on safety and comfort. In our medical detox treatment programs, you will receive medication-assisted treatment to manage your withdrawal symptoms. Additionally, our inpatient level of care provides effective, compassionate care around the clock.

Treatment Designed Around You

We take an individualized approach to care, meeting you where you are and building a treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs and goals.

Understanding Alcohol Addiction and Its Impact

How Alcohol Use Affects Physical, Emotional, and Behavioral Health

AUD or alcohol addiction is a medical condition that is characterized by an inability to stop drinking, despite the various consequences you may face. Substance abuse can come with a wide range of physical, emotional, and behavioral health challenges that disrupt your life.

Some of the health issues and consequences that can arise from alcohol addiction include:

Physical health
issues

  • Liver disease, heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and cancer
  • Impaired memory and coordination

Emotional and mental health issues

  • Exacerbate or contribute to mental health issues, such as mood and anxiety disorders
    • Depression and bipolar disorder
    • Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder
    • PTSD
    • Other forms of SUD

Behavioral health
issues

  • Increased impulsivity, risky behaviors (unprotected sex, drunk driving, and fist fights), and aggression
  • Relationship conflict
  • Unstable housing and employment
  • Financial issues
Like other mental health conditions, there is no one singular cause of AUD. However, many factors increase the risk of development, including:
  • Having a family history of alcohol addiction
  • Co-occurring mental health conditions
  • Early exposure to drinking
  • Traumatic experiences
Despite encountering risk factors that are often out of your control, alcohol addiction does not have to control your life. Understanding the signs and symptoms of alcohol addiction is an invaluable step toward treatment and long-term recovery.

When Alcohol Use Becomes Substance Use Disorder

There is a narrow perception of alcohol addiction as a dependency and a lack of control over consumption. While dependence and loss of control are important factors in substance abuse, other forms of drinking are often overlooked as problematic drinking patterns. The amount of drinking varies from one person to the next. Some people drink heavily all day, while others binge drink. Regardless, if you are relying on drinking and struggle with staying sober for extended periods, there may be a problem. 

The first step toward seeking alcohol addiction treatment in Los Angeles is recognizing the problem. Unfortunately, alcohol addiction is more challenging to identify than other forms of substance abuse, but it is not impossible. Listed below are some of the signs and symptoms you may exhibit if you have an alcohol addiction:

  • Increased quantity or frequency of alcohol consumption
  • Developing a high tolerance for alcohol
  • Drinking at inappropriate times
  • Avoiding situations where alcohol is prohibited
  • Changes in friendships and relationships due to alcohol use
  • Hiding alcohol and alcohol consumption
  • Depending on alcohol to function day-to-day
  • Feeling increasingly lethargic and depressed
  • Poor work performance and financial issues
  • Legal problems caused by reckless choices made under the influence
It is time to seek treatment if you recognize the signs and symptoms of alcohol addiction in yourself or a loved one. Moreover, a clear sign that it is time to seek addiction treatment is when your drinking is causing harm to yourself and others, or if you are unable to quit drinking alone.

Residential Detox and Inpatient Level of Care

Medical Detoxification for Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms

Once you are ready to seek addiction treatment, the real work can begin. Deciding on the best program can be challenging, but for many, the best option for treating substance abuse is an inpatient treatment program. Thus, our rehab center here in Los Angeles offers the opportunity to work on healing from your substance abuse in a controlled, warm, and welcoming environment. 

During your time in alcohol rehab, you will have access to medical detox for withdrawal symptoms and psychological care for your mental well-being. Through our comprehensive, evidence-based treatment programs, you will also learn healthy coping skills for avoiding triggers, managing cravings, and reducing the risk of relapse. Additionally, we offer a continuum of care designed to support your wellness during and after treatment. However, first, you must detox to support the recovery process and reach sobriety.

The general public often associates withdrawal symptoms with common symptoms like nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, sweating, and tiredness. Common withdrawal symptoms can lead you and others to believe structured support during detox is unnecessary or even a sign of weakness. However, in reality, detox is complex, and withdrawal symptoms cannot only be extremely painful, but in some cases, they can become life-threatening when they are not properly managed. For instance, in more severe cases of alcohol withdrawal symptoms, people sometimes experience delirium tremens (DTs), which causes intense seizures. 
Symptoms can begin two to three days after a final drink and include:
  • Fever
  • Confusion
  • Extreme fatigue
  • Hallucinations
  • Irritability and agitation
  • Hypersensitivity to touch, light, and sound
  • Severe emotional distress
Seeking medical attention immediately is vital when experiencing DTs symptoms. DTs further speak to one of the reasons we prioritize around-the-clock care and supervision during medical detox. 

Detoxification is an invaluable part of our treatment programs for your physical, mental, and emotional wellness. Looking at the uncomfortable and severe side effects of withdrawal symptoms highlights the importance of MAT in medical detox as an integral part of our rehab programs.

24/7 Clinical Support and Monitoring

We provide around-the-clock care through our medical detox treatment programs in a supportive environment, focusing on physical and psychological symptom management. During withdrawal, you may experience anxiety, tremors, headaches, nausea and vomiting, and insomnia. However, with our 24/7 medical services, we can help you through mild and severe symptoms. 

Along with our 24/7 detox services, we also provide medication management or medication-assisted treatment. Medication-assisted treatment is particularly useful in helping ease the physical symptoms of withdrawal while you transition into sobriety. 

We also fully understand how uncomfortable the detox and withdrawal phase can be. That is why we do everything possible to make this step on your recovery journey more bearable while preparing you for an evidence-based and holistic approach to behavioral health treatment for your stabilization and safety.

Support during detox can include psychological care and medication-assisted treatment.
