Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - San Diego, TX.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in San Diego offer intensive 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 clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
