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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems 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. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a recovery plan that will effectively treat both concurrently so that the person can live a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Morongo Valley comes in. Having someone receive drug rehabilitation at one center and then having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
