Mental health treatment has become an important part of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly evident over the last several years, and many rehabilitation facilities in Fort Yukon now offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the person doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is discovered in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be put forth to help the client resolve issues and become more stable, and this may involve the use of various counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, individuals suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, professional staff and mental health professionals can assess medication records and suggest actions which can be taken to do away with the need for medication. Patients can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
