Mental health treatment has become an essential aspect of the treatment of addiction disorders, because many individuals with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more evident over the last few years, and many rehabilitation facilities in Alma now provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services together with traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's mental health issue, especially when addiction is present. Often, the person doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is discovered in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be completed to help the client become mentally stable, and this might involve the use of specific counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and mental health practitioners can determine medication records and propose steps which can be introduced to remove the need for medication. Patients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
