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 may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a rehabilitation plan that will effectively address both concurrently so that the person can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Houston comes in. Having someone get addiction treatment services at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
