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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Edison offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

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