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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Norton offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
