Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mount Arlington, NJ.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
