Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Brookline, NH.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Brookline offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
