Dual Diagnosis Rehab Services - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - West Point, 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 combined with clinical depression. It could be several things all co-occurring simultaneously, with certain disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For example, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their depression or anxiety. A person might be suffering from depression due to their drug or alcohol use. It takes a team of professionals to ascertain the root causes of each of the issues the individual is battling and come up with a recovery plan that will successfully resolve both concurrently so that the person can lead a drug-free and psychologically healthy life.

This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in West Point comes in. Having someone receive substance abuse treatment services at one facility and then having to go to a mental health specialist at a different facility isn't ideal. The most successful dual diagnosis drug treatment programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program simultaneously. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is most effective for people with more serious addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients benefit most in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time constraints to their recovery.
