Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mason City, IA.

There are an estimated 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. Individuals who suffer with a mental health disorder, whether properly diagnosed or not, are more likely to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can sometimes be difficult to evaluate and treat, and if either one of them are left untreated both can become more harmful for the person, leaving them exposed to physical, mental and social consequences. Consequences in these unique instances can be very serious, sometimes leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With proper diagnosis and specific treatment methods to work on the co-occurring disorders at the same time, this can be prevented and individuals in Mason City with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of treatment for co-occurring substance abuse disorders has come a more broad range of services for these individuals. Early diagnosis can be vital in these circumstances, and many people with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers primary care physicians an unique chance to identify people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment services.

Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more extensive array of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are normally provided in inpatient and residential rehab programs which can help with the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to stop using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with clients in these settings to address both issues concurrently with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before discharge develop a strong relapse prevention and aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't quickly relapse due to either disorder being activated.
