Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Elfin Cove, AK.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a recovery plan that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elfin Cove comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
