Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Cross Plains, TX.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Cross Plains offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many clients 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 rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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