Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Carrollton, MO.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Carrollton have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
