A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that individuals can live a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Savannah comes in. Having someone get drug treatment services at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a different program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
