Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lafollette, TN.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Lafollette have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
