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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Merryville offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
