Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Edwards, MS.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Edwards have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
