Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lee, IL.

Mental health treatment is often an essential component of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, due to the fact that a significantly large number of people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly apparent over the last several years, and many treatment facilities in Lee now provide dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most instances, mental health treatment involves the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, especially when substance abuse is involved. In many cases, the individual doesn't initially even know 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, treatment steps can be put forth to help the client become mentally stable, and this may involve the use of specific counseling, therapies, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, clients suffering with a dual diagnosis are self-medicating with substance use or possibly abusing or misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and medical professionals can assess medication records and recommend steps which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Patients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
