Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Merkel, TX.

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 a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be several things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues 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. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and come up with a rehabilitation strategy that will effectively address both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Merkel comes in. Having someone get addiction rehabilitation at one center and having the person go to a mental health professional at a different program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is recommended for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
