A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is battling and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Waukegan comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment services at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
