Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Arcadia, IN.

There are an estimated 8 million Americans who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. People who suffer with a mental health disorder, whether properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can be challenging to evaluate and treat, and if either one of them are left untreated both can become more damaging for the individual, leaving them vulnerable to physical, mental and social consequences. Consequences in these special instances can be very serious, sometimes leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specialized treatment to address the co-occurring disorders at the same time, this can be avoided and individuals in Arcadia with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.

With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more broad range of services for these clients. Early diagnosis can be key in these circumstances, and many individuals with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special chance to identify people with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the appropriate treatment resources.

People with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders need a more broad spectrum of services than the typical treatment client, services that are typically offered in hospital, inpatient, and residential programs which can help with the initial stabilization process to get them detoxed and off of any drugs and medications they need to quit taking immediately. Doctors and therapists work with clients in these settings to address both disorders simultaneously with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before discharge come up with a strong relapse prevention and aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't immediately relapse due to either disorder being activated.
