Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Severn, 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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively address both at the same time so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Severn comes in. Having someone get addiction rehabilitation at one facility and having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
