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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Limington have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases 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 individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
