Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Pulaski, MS.

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 combined with depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, 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 due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively treat both at the same time so that the person can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Pulaski comes in. Having the person get drug treatment services at one facility and having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
