Mental Health Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Wilmore, KS.

Mental health treatment is an important component of the treatment of addiction disorders, due to the fact that many people with substance abuse issues also suffer with a co-occurring mental health disorder. The need for dual diagnosis rehabilitation has become increasingly apparent over the last few years, and many treatment centers in Wilmore now offer dual diagnosis rehabilitation as part of a wider range of services together with traditional and more progressive treatment for addiction.

In many cases, mental health treatment starts with the initial diagnosis of an individual's disorder, particularly when substance abuse is involved. Often, the client doesn't initially even know they have an anxiety disorder or are suffering with depression until it is diagnosed in a mental health physician's office or treatment facility. Once diagnosed, treatment steps can be put forth to help the client become mentally stable, and this may incorporate the use of various psychotherapies, counseling, and possibly medication or cessation of medication. In many cases however, individuals suffering with a dual diagnosis are attempting to self-medicate with substance use or perhaps abusing or misusing their medications. In these circumstances, rehab staff and mental health practitioners can assess medication records and suggest actions which can be taken to remove the need for medication. Patients can be safely weaned off of medications which may be doing more harm than good, or those which they tend to abuse.
