There are an estimated 8 million people in the United States who struggle with co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders, also known as a dual diagnosis. People who suffer with 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 evaluate and treat, but if either are left untreated both can become more harmful for the person, leaving them exposed to physical, mental and social consequences. Consequences in these unique instances can be very serious, sometimes leading to suicide, homelessness, legal consequences, and premature death. With the correct diagnosis and specialized treatment methods to handle the co-occurring disorders simultaneously, this can be prevented and people in Seymour with co-occurring disorders can lead perfectly happy and productive lives.
With increased understanding on the subject, research and innovation in the field of treatment for co-occurring substance abuse disorders has come a more wide spectrum of services for these clients. Early intervention can be vital in these situations, and many people with co-occurring disorders may seek primary care services first before looking for behavioral health services. This offers primary care physicians a special chance to identify individuals with co-occurring disorders through screening and then referral to the correct treatment services.
Individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance abuse disorders require a more broad spectrum of services than the typical treatment client, services that are normally provided in inpatient and residential rehab programs which can provide services for the initial detoxification process and off of any drugs and medications they need to stop taking immediately. Clinicians and treatment specialists work with patients in these settings to treat both issues concurrently with behavioral therapy, counseling, and mental health services, and before discharge come up with a robust aftercare plan to make sure these clients don't quickly relapse because of either disorder being triggered.
