A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a treatment strategy that will effectively address both concurrently so that the person can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in American Fork comes in. Having someone get substance abuse treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
