Cannabis Withdrawal Symptoms
How we minimise your symptoms and prevent relapse
Cannabis withdrawal symptoms include restlessness, low mood, sleep issues and gastrointestinal discomfort. These symptoms are a barrier to giving up cannabis and are strongly associated with relapse. During the detox phase, we use medications to ease your withdrawal symptoms to make you as comfortable as possible. We also provide 12-months of ongoing support to help prevent relapse and put you back in control of your health and wellbeing.
How The Cannabis Home Detox Works
We guide you through our three step process so we are with you at every step
Stage 1. Preparation (1—2 weeks)
Before we start the detox, we take a few important steps to ensure your safety and comfort. First, you’ll meet with our doctor for a free comprehensive medical assessment where we’ll learn about your health history and relationship with alcohol. This helps us create a personalised alcohol home detox plan just for you.
We’ll also meet your support person and explain their role in your detox journey. Afterwards, you’ll need some blood tests and must start taking vitamin B1 (thiamine), which protects your brain during the alcohol detox process.
There will be about a week between your first appointment and starting your home detox — this important time allows your body to build up essential vitamin stores required for a safe detox. We’ll stay in touch regularly during this preparation week to support you and make sure you’re ready for a successful alcohol home detox experience.
Stage 2. Alcohol Home Detox (1 week)
Each morning you will have an appointment with our doctor to check on your progress, help manage any cravings and adjust your medications as needed. Our doctor will keep in regular contact with you throughout the day to ensure your comfort and safety. You and your support person will also have a direct line to our doctor for any questions or concerns that arise.
The entire process takes place in the comfort of your own home – no clinical settings or prying eyes. This approach allows you to maintain your privacy while receiving premium medical care, giving you the freedom to focus on your recovery without completely disrupting your normal routine and responsibilities.
Stage 3. Aftercare (12 months)
Together, we’ll develop a personalised aftercare plan that aligns with your long-term goals and personal preferences. This roadmap gives you the confidence to navigate your recovery journey with long-term support from us. Over the next 12 months you’ll have regular check-in appointments to celebrate your progress, address any challenges, and adjust your plan as needed. We’ll be here to support you throughout your recovery, helping you stay on track towards a happier, healthier lifestyle.
