Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - George, 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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that individuals can lead a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in George comes in. Having someone receive addiction rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
