Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Squirrel Island, ME.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be many things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a treatment plan that will successfully resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Squirrel Island comes in. Having the client get substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
