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 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 stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can lead a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Ottawa comes in. Having the person receive substance abuse treatment services at one facility and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
