A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that the person can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Wilmington comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse rehabilitation at one center and then having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
