Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Clarkston, GA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Clarkston 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 individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
