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 could be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively treat both concurrently so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Derry comes in. Having the person get addiction treatment at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehab facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for individuals with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
