Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Gulf, NC.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
