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 a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. Someone might be suffering from depression because of their substance use. It often requires specialists to ascertain the causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will effectively resolve both concurrently so that individuals can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Altadena comes in. Having the client receive addiction treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehab is recommended for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
