Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Benson, MD.

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 a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with 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 plan that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that the person can live a drug-free and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Benson comes in. Having the person receive addiction rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
