Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - New Durham, NH.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
