A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can live a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Roanoke Rapids comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one center and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
