A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Dillingham comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
