Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Merrimack, 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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered 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 takes a team of specialists to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively treat both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Merrimack comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse treatment at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
