Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - St. Marys, OH.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in St. Marys have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug 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 more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
