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 combined with depression. It could be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lexington Park comes in. Having someone get substance abuse treatment services at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
