A dual diagnosis is a diagnosis of a co-occurring addiction and mental health disorder. This could be a co-occurring substance abuse addiction along with a bipolar or anxiety disorder, or a gambling addiction combined with clinical depression. It may be several things all co-occurring at the same time, with particular disorders making other issues worse or even triggering them. For instance, someone's alcohol abuse might be stimulated by their desire to self-medicate because of their anxiety or depression. A person might be struggling with depression because of their drug or alcohol use. It often requires professionals to discover the causes of each of the issues the person is battling and work out a recovery plan that will effectively address both at the same time so that the person can live a sober and emotionally healthy lifestyle.
This is where dual diagnosis drug rehab in Elkhart comes in. Having the person get drug treatment at one facility and then having to also receive help from a mental health specialist at a separate program isn't ideal. The most effective dual diagnosis drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs can treat both co-occurring disorders in one program and at the same time. Long term inpatient rehabilitation is best for clients with more advanced addictions and mental health disorders, because these clients excel in an environment which is full immersion and where there are no time limits on their rehabilitation.
