Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Astoria, IL.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Astoria have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation 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.
