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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be many things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elmhurst comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
