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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Skowhegan have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
