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 or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It may be many things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For example, someone's alcoholism might be triggered by their need to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is battling and work out a treatment plan that will successfully treat both at the same time so that individuals can live a sober and psychologically healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Redwood City comes in. Having the client receive drug treatment services at one facility and having to go to a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug rehabilitation facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one setting simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for clients with more severe addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting where they are fully immersed and where there are no time limits to their treatment plan.
