Withdrawal and detox are related terms. But they do not prove that one setting or response is right.

Avoid relying on assumptions based on another person’s experience, the substance name alone, or how manageable symptoms seemed earlier.

Call 911 for severe withdrawal, overdose, loss of consciousness, seizure, breathing trouble, suicidal danger, or urgent danger. The 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available by calling or texting 988 for suicidal or mental health crisis support. These resources should be used instead of waiting for CRP's weekday office hours.
