Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Houlka, MS.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Houlka offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
