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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Prairie offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
