Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Atkins, IA.

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 coupled with depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Atkins comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
