Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Pulaski, GA.

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 an anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction coupled with depression. It could be several things all co-occurring at the same time, 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 depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their substance use. It takes a team of professionals to discover the root causes of each of the disorders the individual is struggling with and work out a recovery plan that will successfully treat both concurrently so that the person can live a drug-free and psychologically healthy lifestyle.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Pulaski comes in. Having the client get drug treatment services at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different facility is not ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment facilities can address both co-occurring disorders in one facility and at the same time. Long term inpatient treatment is recommended for individuals with more advanced substance abuse issues and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in a setting which is full immersion and where there are no time limits to their recovery.
