Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Portland, TX.

A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to find relief from their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to determine the causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a treatment plan that will effectively address both simultaneously so that the person can lead a sober and mentally healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Portland comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a different facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
