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

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring at the same time, 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 anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively address both concurrently so that individuals can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Pierson comes in. Having someone receive drug treatment at one center and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
