A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a substance abuse addiction along with an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the disorders the person is battling and come up with a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Challenge comes in. Having the client get drug rehabilitation at one facility and then having the person go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
