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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Flagstaff comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment services at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a different program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is best for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
