Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Portageville, MO.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Portageville offer 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 people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
