Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Derwood, MD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Derwood offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
