Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - St. George, KS.

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 coupled with depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully address both simultaneously so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in St. George comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment services at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
