Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Stillwater, NJ.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Stillwater have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that individuals 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 individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
