Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Abbott, TX.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Abbott offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
