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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Meddybemps offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients 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 completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
