Mental health treatment has become an important part of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that many people with an addiction disorder struggle with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more evident over the last several years, and many rehab centers in Augusta now provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, especially when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't even realize they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, corrective steps can be taken to help the client become mentally stable, and this may include the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and perhaps medication administration 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 circumstances, rehab staff and medical specialists can determine medication histories and recommend steps which can be taken to remove the need for medication. Individuals can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
