Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Attapulgus, GA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
