Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Union, 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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Union comes in. Having the person get substance abuse treatment services at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different program is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
