Mental health treatment is often an essential part of the treatment of drug & alcohol abuse disorders, because many people with substance abuse issues struggle with a co-occurring mental health problem. The need for dual diagnosis treatment has become increasingly apparent over the last several years, and many rehab programs in Burrton now provide dual diagnosis treatment as part of a wider range of services over and above traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.
In many cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of the person's mental health issue, especially when substance abuse is involved. Often, the individual doesn't initially even know they have an undiagnosed anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, steps can be taken to help the person become mentally stable, and this might incorporate the use of various counseling, therapies, and possibly medication administration or cessation of medication. In many instances however, people suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with drugs and alcohol or possibly misusing their medications. In these cases, treatment staff and medical specialists can evaluate medication histories and recommend actions which can be taken to eliminate the need for medication. Clients can be carefully weaned off of medications which are doing more harm than good, or those which they are inclined to misuse.
