Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Potomac, IL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
