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 combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully address both simultaneously so that individuals can live a clean and sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Paradise comes in. Having someone receive addiction rehabilitation at one facility and then having to go to a mental health professional at a different program isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
