Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Littlefield, AZ.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that the person can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Littlefield comes in. Having the client receive addiction rehabilitation at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for clients with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
