Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Midlothian, MD.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Midlothian offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
