Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Athens, AL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Athens offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase 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 transition to a sober lifestyle.
