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 many things all occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and come up with a treatment strategy that will effectively resolve both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Suffolk comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment services at one facility and then having to go to a mental health professional at a separate facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol recovery facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for individuals with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals excel in an atmosphere where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
