Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - St. Louis Park, MN.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully resolve 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 St. Louis Park comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
