A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, 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 substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a recovery strategy that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in New London comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
