Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Prior Lake, MN.

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 coupled with depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will successfully address both concurrently so that the person can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Prior Lake comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse rehabilitation at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for people with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
