Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Shelbyville, MO.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Shelbyville have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
