Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Griffithsville, WV.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Griffithsville offer 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be in 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 rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
