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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery plan that will successfully address both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lawrence comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment services at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
