Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Elmira, OR.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a recovery plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elmira comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
