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 disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with depression. It may be many things all occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues 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. Someone might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of specialists to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the person is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully address both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and mentally healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Santa Cruz comes in. Having the client get addiction treatment at one center and having to go to a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't 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 recommended for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an atmosphere which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
