Mental health treatment is an important part of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that many people with an addiction disorder struggle with a co-occurring mental health issue. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly evident over the last several years, and many rehabilitation programs in Napa also offer dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services in addition to traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In most instances, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. Oftentimes, the person doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is discovered in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be taken to help the person become mentally stable, and this might involve the use of certain counseling, therapies, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many instances however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and medical specialists can evaluate medication histories and propose actions which can be taken to get rid of the need for medication. Patients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
