A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their need to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to determine the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully treat both concurrently so that individuals can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Bethlehem comes in. Having the client receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility is not convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
