Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Andover, NH.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety 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 stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively resolve both at the same time so that individuals can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Andover comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one center and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for people with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
