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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Lincoln offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
