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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Sheldon offer 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 individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many people 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 treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
