There are an estimated 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. Individuals who have a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of substance abuse disorder. This can sometimes be hard to asses and treat, and if either one of them are left untreated both might be very harmful for the individual, leaving them vulnerable to physical, mental and social consequences. Consequences in these special cases can be severe, sometimes leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specific treatment methods to handle the co-occurring disorders concurrently, this can be avoided and people in Julesburg with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.
With increased awareness, research and innovation in the field of treatment for co-occurring substance abuse disorders has come a more broad spectrum of treatment services for these clients. Early diagnosis can be key in these situations, and many individuals with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before seeking behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special chance to diagnose individuals with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment services.
Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more extensive array of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are normally provided in hospital and residential programs which can provide services for the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to quit using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with patients in these settings to handle both disorders concurrently with counseling, behavioral therapy, and mental health services, and before program completion devise a sturdy aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't quickly relapse because of either disorder being triggered.
