Detoxing from drugs or alcohol at home can be dangerous, but not for the reasons that many might think. Thanks to the glamorization – and sometimes dramatization – of detox and drug rehab, some addicts and alcoholics never seek help for their problem because of what has been portrayed on the subject by Hollywood and the media. But whether any of these portrayals are accurate or not is hardly significant – the problem is that few of them address the fact that in some cases it can be deadly to detox from drugs or alcohol at home. In fact, Amy Winehouse’s family recently told the press that they think she died as a result of detoxing from alcohol at home too quickly. And if there’s any lesson to be learned here, it’s that detox should always occur in a medically-equipped facility.
Of all the substances that a person can detox from, alcohol is the most dangerous. This is a disturbing figure considering that; “It is estimated that only 10 to 20 percent of patients undergoing alcohol withdrawal are treated as inpatients, so it is possible that as many as 2 million Americans may experience symptoms of alcohol withdrawal conditions each year.” This means that alcohol is not only the most commonly abused substance; it is also the substance that the most people detox from at home. Unfortunately, many people who attempt this outside of a treatment center will be so overwhelmed by the symptoms of Acute Withdrawal Syndrome that they will return to drinking in order to alleviate the pain and discomfort caused by the detox process.

In my town, one person in four is now registered disabled with drug or alcohol problems. Most have never worked and did this after leaving school. This is very worrying and how do you think it should be addressed? I personally think a drop in benefits until the person completes a detox programme and has clean tests and regualar monitoring. if it pays £250 a week and rent payed to be a drug addict why work???
