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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Gilson offer 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 go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
