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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Mertzon offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
