Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Westwood Hills, KS.

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 a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Westwood Hills comes in. Having someone receive drug treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for clients with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
