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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Kittery offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
