Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Mississippi State, MS.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Mississippi State offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
