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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Lauderdale offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
