Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - High Island, TX.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in High Island offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning 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 harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
