Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Akiachak, AK.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Akiachak have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program 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 specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
