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 coupled with depression. It may be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Mission comes in. Having someone get addiction rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is best for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
