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 clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Muskegon Heights comes in. Having someone get addiction treatment services at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for people with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
