Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Petersburg, IL.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Petersburg comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment services at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities 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 substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
