Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sullivan, MO.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
