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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in White Oak offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
