A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully resolve both at the same time so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lawrenceville comes in. Having someone receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is best for people with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
