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 could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Centralia comes in. Having someone receive drug treatment at one center and then having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
