In the state of Georgia alone, the number of fentanyl-related deaths has increased by 231% since 2019. Because of the increase in fentanyl abuse and overdoses, finding a fentanyl addiction treatment program in Georgia is critical. We offer a range of treatment services and programs meant to address fentanyl abuse and overall mental wellness in you or your loved one.
Our Fentanyl Addiction Treatment Programs
At Southeast Detox in Georgia, we offer medical detox and residential treatment for substance abuse care, designed to meet your specific needs with a wide variety of treatment options.
Fentanyl Withdrawal Symptoms and Detox
We often recommend that our clients begin with the detox program so they are able to safely rid their bodies of any drugs still present. Symptoms of fentanyl withdrawal include anxiety, insomnia, muscle cramps, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and runny eyes or nose. Seeking professional help is often critical to prevent a relapse.
Residential Treatment For Fentanyl Addiction
After detox, a residential treatment program is often the next step, providing round-the-clock treatment and intensive services that address both addiction recovery and any underlying mental health conditions. Services include Individual Therapy, Group Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, Relapse Prevention Training, and 12-Step Group Therapy.
Fentanyl Overdose
One of the major concerns of fentanyl use is the high risk of overdose, worsened by the increased occurrence of drugs being laced with fentanyl. Symptoms of a fentanyl overdose include constricted pupils, respiratory depression, blue or pale skin, loss of consciousness, slurred speech, and vomiting. If you or a family member is experiencing any of these symptoms, call 911 immediately.
Getting Help in Georgia
There is absolutely no shame in finding care for any form of drug abuse, especially one as potent and deadly as fentanyl. Our recovery center works tirelessly to provide a safe, compassionate, effective drug rehab that allows you to play the biggest role in dictating the course of your treatment plan. If our detox or residential treatment programs are not the right fit for you, we will help you find a program that does fit in Georgia or the surrounding Atlanta areas, including partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, or regular outpatient treatment.
