Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mount Vernon, IA.

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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a drug-free and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Mount Vernon comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can treat 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 individuals benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
