Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Bristol, CT.

Mental health treatment is often an important component of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that a considerably large number of people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many rehab facilities in Bristol now offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, especially when addiction is present. In many cases, the person doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is discovered in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the client become mentally stable, and this can include the use of specific counseling, therapies, and possibly medication administration or cessation of medication. In many cases however, individuals struggling with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or possibly misusing their medications. In these circumstances, professional staff and mental health professionals can assess medication records and suggest steps which can be put forth to remove the need for medication. People can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
