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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Pitts have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center 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.
