Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - North Lauderdale, FL.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully address both at the same time so that the person can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in North Lauderdale comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health professional at a different facility isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
