Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Portage, 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 coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all occurring at the same time, 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 anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Portage comes in. Having the client get drug treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health professional at a separate program isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
