A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be numerous things all co-occurring at the same time, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be struggling with depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and work out a rehabilitation strategy that will successfully treat both simultaneously so that the person can live a clean and sober and emotionally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Pleasanton comes in. Having the person receive addiction treatment services at one facility and then having the person also receive help from a mental health professional at a separate program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol treatment facilities can work on both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient treatment is most effective for people with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these individuals benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their treatment plan.
