Why do all the detoxs around MA have such uncomfortable detoxs and low doses of meds which make the painfull process of detoxing so bad?

Answer 1

Detox programs in Massachusetts, like in many places, often prioritize safety and gradual tapering to minimize the risk of severe withdrawal symptoms. Low medication doses are typically used to avoid potential dependency on the medications themselves and to encourage patients to engage in holistic recovery practices. Additionally, the discomfort associated with detox can reflect the severity of substance use and the body's need to adjust to the absence of the substance. Each program aims to balance effective detoxification with patient safety and long-term recovery goals.
