Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Southampton, MA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
