Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Lake Waccamaw, NC.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab 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 substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Lake Waccamaw have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment 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 higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
