There are an estimated 8 million Americans who suffer with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. People who suffer with a mental health disorder, whether properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can sometimes be difficult to evaluate and treat, and if either are left untreated both might become more damaging for the individual, leaving them open to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these unique cases can be severe, sometimes leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specialized treatment to address the co-occurring disorders simultaneously, this can be avoided and people in Loomis with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.
With increased awareness, study and innovation in the field of treatment for co-occurring substance abuse disorders has come a more broad spectrum of treatment services for these individuals. Early diagnosis can be vital in these situations, and many individuals with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special opportunity to identify individuals with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the appropriate treatment resources.
People with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more broad spectrum of services than the typical treatment client, services that are usually offered in hospital, inpatient, and residential programs which can assist with the initial stabilization process to get them detoxed and off of any drugs and medications they need to quit using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with patients in these settings to handle both issues simultaneously with counseling, behavioral therapy, and mental health services, and before discharge develop a sturdy relapse prevention and aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't quickly relapse due to either disorder being stimulated.
