Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Sterling, OK.

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 many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a recovery strategy that will effectively treat both at the same time so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Sterling comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment at one center and then having to go to a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is best for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
