Mental health treatment is often an essential part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health issue. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly evident over the last few years, and many rehab programs in Glendale also provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to traditional and more progressive rehabilitation methods.
In most cases, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's mental health issue, particularly when addiction is present. In many cases, the client doesn't even realize they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be put forth to help the client become mentally stable, and this might involve the use of certain counseling, therapies, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and mental health specialists can evaluate medication histories and suggest actions which can be introduced to do away with the need for medication. Individuals can be safely weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
