Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sharpsburg, GA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Sharpsburg offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
