Mental health treatment is often an important part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health issue. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly evident over the last several years, and many rehab programs in Wrangell also provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, corrective steps can be completed to help the individual become mentally stable, and this may incorporate the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or possibly misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and mental health professionals can assess medication histories and propose actions which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Patients can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
