Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Auburn, AL.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Auburn offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

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