Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - San Marcos, CA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in San Marcos offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
