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 coupled with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery strategy that will successfully treat both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Groton comes in. Having the client receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
