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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It could be numerous things all occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a treatment plan that will effectively address both at the same time so that individuals can live a drug-free and mentally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Tempe comes in. Having someone get drug treatment at one facility and having to go to a mental health professional at a separate program is not convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is best for people with more serious substance abuse issues 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.
