Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Stillwater, 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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be numerous things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to find relief from their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully address both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Stillwater comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse treatment at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
