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 combined with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to determine the root causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully address both at the same time so that individuals can live a sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Scarborough comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment services at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
