Mental health treatment has become an important part of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, due to the fact that many people with an addiction disorder struggle with a co-occurring mental health issue. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become more and more apparent over the last few years, and many treatment facilities in Elkader now offer dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a broader spectrum of services in addition to conventional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many instances, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, especially when addiction is present. In many cases, the client doesn't even realize they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are struggling with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, actions can be put forth to help the person become mentally stable, and this might incorporate the use of specific psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with drugs and alcohol or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these instances, treatment staff and mental health practitioners can assess medication histories and suggest actions which can be put forth to do away with the need for medication. Patients can be carefully weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to misuse.
