Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Thelma, KY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Thelma have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only get short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
