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 coupled with clinical depression. It may be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even triggering 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 drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in El Paso comes in. Having the person get drug rehabilitation at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
