Mental health treatment is often an essential component of the treatment of addiction disorders, because many people with an addiction disorder also suffer with a co-occurring mental health issue. The necessity for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many rehabilitation programs in Willoughby also offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when addiction is present. Often, the individual doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, treatment steps can be put forth to help the individual become mentally stable, and this might include the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, 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 misusing their medications. In these cases, professional staff and medical specialists can evaluate medication histories and propose actions which can be put forth to eliminate the need for medication. People can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
