Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Stone Mountain, GA.

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

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Stone Mountain offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
