Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Glen Allen, AL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Glen Allen offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
