Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Sullivan, ME.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Sullivan offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
