Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Springfield, ME.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a recovery plan that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Springfield comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
