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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Monroe have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
