Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - East Berlin, CT.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in East Berlin offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
