Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Big Spring, TX.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Big Spring have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people 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 rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
