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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in West Kennebunk offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
