Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Menlo, GA.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Menlo comes in. Having the client get addiction treatment at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
