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 combined with depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively resolve both concurrently so that individuals can live a drug-free and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in East Meadow comes in. Having someone get drug rehabilitation at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
