Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Washington, NH.

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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and work out a rehabilitation plan that will successfully address both simultaneously so that individuals can live a sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Washington comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehab is best for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues 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.
