Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Lakeside, TX.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Lakeside have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
