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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be several things all occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues 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. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance 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 rehabilitation plan that will effectively resolve both concurrently so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Waterford comes in. Having the client get drug rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for people with more serious substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
