A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Colby comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment services at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more severe 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 treatment plan.
