Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - North Metro, 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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered 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 takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in North Metro comes in. Having the person get substance abuse treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
