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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can lead a drug-free and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Smyrna comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program 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 treatment is most effective for clients with more serious 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 recovery.
