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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can live a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Ferndale comes in. Having the client get substance abuse treatment services at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a different facility isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
