Mental health treatment has become an essential component of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many treatment programs in Winslow also offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the client doesn't initially even know 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, steps can be put forth to help the person become mentally stable, and this might involve the use of certain psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, rehab staff and medical specialists can assess medication records and propose actions which can be put forth to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
