Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Anderson, AK.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Anderson comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
