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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Melissa offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
