Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Alexander City, AL.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Alexander City have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
