Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Sterling City, TX.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Sterling City have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
