Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Helen, WV.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Helen have intensive 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 individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
