Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Little Sioux, 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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain 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 depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Little Sioux comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment services at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
