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 combined with depression. It could be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other problems worse or even stimulating them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It often requires professionals to discover the causes of each of the disorders the person is struggling with and come up with a recovery strategy that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that individuals can lead a clean and sober and psychologically healthy life.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Signal Hill comes in. Having the person get substance abuse treatment at one center and then having the person go to a mental health professional at a separate facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug recovery programs can address both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for people with more severe substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
