Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - St. Joseph, IL.

Mental health treatment is an essential component of the treatment of substance abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health problem. The necessity for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly evident over the last few years, and many rehabilitation facilities in St. Joseph also provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a broader spectrum of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In most cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's disorder, particularly when addiction is present. In many cases, the client doesn't even realize they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering 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 incorporate the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, people struggling with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or perhaps misusing their medications. In these instances, professional staff and mental health practitioners can evaluate medication histories and propose steps which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Individuals can be harmlessly weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to abuse.
