Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Thornton, 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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that individuals can live a drug-free and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Thornton comes in. Having the person get drug treatment services at one center and then having the person also receive help from a mental health specialist at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program 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 a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
