Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - South Thomaston, 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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular 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 depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires specialists to determine the causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in South Thomaston comes in. Having the person receive drug rehabilitation at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
