Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Elm, PA.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elm comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is most effective for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
