Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Antioch, CA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Antioch offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that clients 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
