Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Columbus, TX.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Columbus have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
