A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that individuals can live a drug-free and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elizabethton comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for clients with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
