A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be an occurrence of both a drug and alcohol addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. Someone might be struggling with depression because of their substance use. It often requires specialists to determine the causes of each of the issues the individual is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation plan that will effectively treat both concurrently so that the person can live a drug-free and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Norwalk comes in. Having the client receive substance abuse treatment services at one center and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one facility simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is best for people with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
