Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Harwood Heights, IL.

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 disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Harwood Heights comes in. Having someone get substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
