Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Avera, GA.

Mental health treatment has become an essential part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, due to the fact that a significantly large number of people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly apparent over the last several years, and many rehab programs in Avera now offer dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, particularly when substance abuse is involved. 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 clinic or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the individual become mentally stable, and this may include the use of certain counseling, therapies, and perhaps medication administration or cessation of medication. In many instances however, clients struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, professional staff and medical professionals can assess medication histories and suggest actions which can be introduced to do away with the need for medication. Patients can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
