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

There are approximately 8 million Americans who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also sometimes referred to as a dual diagnosis. Individuals who do have a mental health disorder, regardless of whether it has been properly diagnosed or not, are more likely to have some type of drug or alcohol addiction issues. This can be hard to diagnose and treat, but if either one of them are left untreated both might become more damaging for the individual, leaving them exposed to physical, mental and social consequences. Consequences in these special cases can be severe, sometimes leading to homelessness, suicide, legal consequences and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specialized treatment methods to work on the co-occurring disorders simultaneously, this can be avoided and clients in Ladoga with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.

With increased understanding on the subject, study and innovation in the field of co-occurring disorders has come a more broad spectrum of services for these clients. Early intervention can be key in these circumstances, and many people with co-occurring disorders may look for primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers PCP's a special opportunity to diagnose 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 require a more extensive array of services than the typical treatment client, services that are typically offered in inpatient and residential programs which can assist with the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to stop using immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with patients in these settings to treat both disorders simultaneously with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before discharge develop a sturdy aftercare plan to ensure these clients don't immediately relapse because of either disorder being activated.
