Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Terlingua, TX.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Terlingua have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
