Mental health treatment is often an important aspect of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, due to the fact that a significantly large number of people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many rehab programs in Searcy also provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.
In most instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, corrective steps can be completed to help the client resolve issues and become more stable, and this may include the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these circumstances, professional staff and mental health professionals can assess medication records and recommend steps which can be taken to remove the need for medication. People can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
