Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Birch Harbor, ME.

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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a rehabilitation plan that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Birch Harbor comes in. Having someone receive drug treatment at one facility and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for people with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
