Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - West Alexandria, OH.

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 coupled with clinical depression. It could be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a treatment strategy that will effectively address both at the same time so that the person can lead a clean and sober and mentally healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in West Alexandria comes in. Having the person receive drug treatment services at one center and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different program isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more serious substance abuse issues 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.
