Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Douglas, WY.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Douglas offer intensive 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 treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
