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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It could be many things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Lockhart comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse treatment at one center and having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints on their rehabilitation.
