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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, 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. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can live a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Springfield comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment services at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
