Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Lawtell, LA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Lawtell have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
