A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to discover the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that the person can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Mount Pocono comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment at one facility and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more serious addictions 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 recovery.
