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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Sylmar offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
