Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Clinton, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Clinton offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
