Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lake Minchumina, 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 combined with clinical depression. It could be many things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lake Minchumina comes in. Having someone receive addiction treatment at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
