Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Mexia, TX. are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could hang the person up and cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Mexia, TX. who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
