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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Mason offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
