Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lewiston, ME.

There are an estimated 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. People who suffer with a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of substance abuse disorder. This can be difficult to identify and treat, but if either are left untreated both can become more harmful for the person, leaving them exposed to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special instances can be severe, at times leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With proper diagnosis and specific treatment to address the co-occurring disorders at the same time, this can be avoided and clients in Lewiston with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.

With increased awareness, study and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more wide spectrum of treatment services for these clients. Early diagnosis can be vital in these situations, and many people with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before seeking behavioral health services. This offers primary care physicians a special opportunity to diagnose individuals with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment services.

Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more broad spectrum of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are typically provided in inpatient and residential programs which can provide services for the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to stop using immediately. Doctors and therapists work with clients in these settings to handle both issues concurrently with counseling, behavioral therapy, and mental health services, and before discharge devise a robust relapse prevention and aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't immediately relapse due to either disorder being activated.
