Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Bryant, 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. Individuals who suffer with a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely than those who don't to have some type of substance abuse disorder. This can sometimes be hard to asses and treat, and if either one of them are left untreated both might become more damaging for the individual, leaving them open to mental, physical and social consequences. Consequences in these special instances can be very serious, at times leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With proper diagnosis and specialized treatment methods to address the co-occurring disorders concurrently, this can be prevented and people in Bryant with co-occurring disorders can be productive and live happily.

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

People with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more broad spectrum of services than the non dual-diagnosis client, services that are usually offered in inpatient and residential rehab programs which can help with the initial detoxification process and off of any medications and drugs they need to stop taking immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with clients in these settings to handle both disorders simultaneously with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before program completion devise a strong aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't immediately relapse due to either disorder being stimulated.
