Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Belmont, MS.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
