Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Carlsbad, TX.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Carlsbad have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
