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 a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Columbus comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
