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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of specialists to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a treatment strategy that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that individuals can lead a sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Pacific Palisades comes in. Having someone receive addiction treatment services at one facility and having to also receive help from a mental health professional at a different facility isn't convenient or ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehab facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
