Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Auburn, ME.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Auburn have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
