Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Patterson, 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 combined with depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Patterson comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse treatment at one center and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
