Mental health treatment has become an essential aspect of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because many individuals with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The necessity for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last several years, and many treatment facilities in Fullerton also provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the client doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the person become mentally stable, and this may involve the use of various counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many instances however, individuals suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, rehab staff and medical professionals can evaluate medication records and recommend actions which can be introduced to eliminate the need for medication. Patients can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
