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 depression. It may be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Fort Yukon comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse treatment services at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
