Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Newcastle, ME.

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 depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Newcastle comes in. Having the person get substance abuse treatment services at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a different program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is best for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
