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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Norwalk have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed 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.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
