Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Anacortes, WA.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Anacortes have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase 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 progress in their new sober lifestyle.
