Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Norfolk, CT.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for 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 a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Norfolk have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
