Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Shapleigh, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Shapleigh have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which 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 rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
