Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Freeport, OH.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Freeport have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that clients may still be in 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
