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 a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively address both concurrently so that the person can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Durham comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for individuals 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 constraints to their treatment plan.
