Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Cedar Brook, NJ.

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

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
